| As said we’re in desperate need of a 9. I’d be going for Joey Lussick. Isn’t getting a game at Eels but was always impressed with him at Salford.
After a hooker we need a prop. Bowden offers less and less each game and Brown still hss daft mistakes in him, although in a few seasons time he’ll be some player.
As for Savelio it was gunna happen as him and JJ was at each other all game. Probably due to JJ milking every penny out of the club and putting even more pressure on the rest of the squad in a very tough season for everyone. Everyone shows passion in different ways and for me I’d rather someone express some sort of passion rather than the way certain players carry themselves.

| Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "I can't think of many if any player let alone a full back who have successfully switched position to hooker in their late 20's and made a success of it.
Hookers have their hands on the ball more than any player and probably have to make more decisions as well. People complain about Houghton's slow service, unfairly in my opinion, so what would Shaul's be like.'" while i understand your reasoning we know jamie was a halfback before dropping to fullback so his hands/passing are ok , its his choice of pass or not when joining the line at speed from fullback ? passing off the floor from a set position in a well coached team along with his running skills and general upper body strength leads me to think he could be a really good if not great hooker ? its just an opinion like yours but until tried we will never know who is right or wrong ?

And I respect yours and other peoples opinions who differ from mine. If he makes the switch and is a success I'll be as pleased as everyone else but I can't see it happening.

Exactly Dave, even if any of the clubs are financially sound due to very wealthy owner (Wire as an example) it makes no difference how much money you have if the rest of the league and sport in general is collapsing. Again you only have to look at what happened to the ice hockey when the Elite started and the league collasped when 2 teams folded, didn't matter that 3 of the teams were minted as they were left without anyone to play.and no product to sell.
I was quite shocked with the level of loses that Hetherington made know about the Rhino's due to the impact of Covid on them as a club and the sport. He admitted that this year and next is likely to face similar loses so again proving that no club is safe.
Its more important than ever before that clubs, owners and authorities start to work together for the common good of the sports preservation.

| I see Jones has had his ban reduced to one match, you couldn't make it up, especially when Watson supported him for fighting soon after the match had finished.

It's laughable. If the RFL want to put an end to punching give out longer suspensions. Don't dish out a suspension then reduce it on appeal!
The inconsistency is mind blowing.
The whole system needs an overhaul. I'd like to see us have a points loading system like in the NRL. This should be harsher on repeat offenders, but if the staff at the match review panel doesn't change, it doesn't matter what the process is.

After Ligi Sao was pinged for a high tackle they decided to miss several elbows to the face from the Hudds player on the floor.
so an elbow is acceptable but a punch is a ban

At the appeal, Jones pleaded not guilty to the offence. His argument was rejected in principle, but the classification of the offence was reduced to Grade B, and the suspension was reduced to one match, while his fine remains at £500.
so on that basis we should have appealed,
Savelios argument would have been rejected but grade reduced

Based upon the Jones decision I’m surprised we hadn’t appealed, in the hope the Panel reduced the ban.
However, overall I’ve never seen the point of player appeals unless new evidence becomes available. When a game has been on Sky, they have various TV angles to review the incident, so the correct disciplinary ban should be handed first time around.

He served eight matches - the Wigan v Hull game was in April and Wigan haven't had the match postponements most clubs have.

| Surely we have appealed Savelio, I thought we had a good chance of it being reduced based on other bans such as Mossop's. But with Ones being reduced we should have an even better chance.
