| Experienced cover in what was clearly our position with least depth, so can only be a good thing.

| Good to have extra cover at hooker. I'm still not convinced by Cunningham.

Neither am I, and I assume Radford isn't either.
Hooker was the glaringly obvious position where if an injury hit we'd have a big problem. I know we were in contact with McShane at Wakefield all the way back in October, so we've been searching for one for a while. Glad it's been sorted.

| For me a poor signing, very average player, should have had faith in Cunningham and if was him, I would be very disapointted.
I would have stuck with what we have and see what happens with our current hookers.
The kind of signing that I would have hoped we stopped making.

| Next season will see Salford with no real tried and tested hooker. Which is all you need to know about them offloading Howarth...
He will only provide very pedestrian distribution from Dummy-half. Slow feet. Slow hands.
Cover is all that he'll provide, and poor cover at that.

First Monday Blues of the year kicking in Dave?
We needed another hooker. If we went with just the two, should Houghton get injured, we'd be up s*** creek, relying on a 20yr old to do 80 minutes each week for however long.

Fist point, too right.
Stick by what I said though, as you just have to read above to see what a poor signing this is.
If Houghton had got injured then we would then have to look at options either within the squad (Rankin, Abdul etc) or look to bring in a player on loan or see who is available.

| We don't really lose anything by this tbh.
I read that article as Radford saying "Yeah he's not great but we needed some cover and hes really cheap"
I agree with Radford in terms of being proactive. Better to have someone training with us ready to come in if needed rather than having to get somebody and just throw them in.

Maybe Radford thinks it's best to play an actual hooker at 9?

Seems that way. Which in my opinion is better than previous regimes who have moved players around to fill in gaps where they don't really fit. Also not sure why it would bother Cunningham if he is confident enough in his own ability. Is this a position where we'd struggle to promote a junior player at this stage ? If so makes sense.
