Just because we already have a hooker, it doesnt mean we cant replace him with someone better plus Pbst will be off soon im sure.

Imagine how good he'll play with fixed hands!

Not really needed and a very good player

...thought we needed very good players and by sounds of it...he is better than Obst.

Been mentioned before but this viewpoint is similar to the Dean Treister/Richard Swain situation.

Heremaia is a far better player than Obst.

I've no doubt he's better than Obst, just wasn't a position we needed to focus on, imo.

Think it is as Houghtons form in the last few matches has been down and his passing v leeds was shocking....Heremia to start with Houghton off bench makes us stronger than Houghton/Obst.

It never did Saints any harm having 2 top drawer hookers in Cunningham & Roby....

Not being disrespectful to Heremaia but I'm sure we could have gotten a British equal.
Would it have been worthwhile spending a little money getting someone out of their deal to save a quota spot?
Still think we should have been in for Diskin at the time.

Who though?...they are all signed up.

Check my edit.

Agree about Diskin but Gary would have told Kath no chance.

He let him go to their rivals! Maybe he himself didn't want to move too far, who knows.
Just would have been a good option and it sounds like we were never in for him, which is strange.
