If Stewart comes in, I'd love to see Moy off the bench, just two short spells, think he could be electric out of Dummy half.

Rovers don't want a fee for Abdul, they're desperate to get him off their payroll for next year or their recruitment is screwed

The only thing with him playing hooker is he is tiny. I think he'd potentially get run over in SL with some of the forwards and how small he is.

I think in 5 years time he could be the best FB in the competition!

Or he could be playing championship. Way too early to be making claims like that

One of the biggest weaknesses at the club is how we manage players that burst onto the scene, look like they'll be a star of super league for years to come....then their progression stagnates and they end up at a championship/league 1 club. Look at Litten, he was in a similar position to Moy a couple of seasons ago, looked like he'd be our fullback for years to come...now he looks like he doesn't have a future with the club. We need to improve that transition from promising youngster to first team star.

The Sullivan talk is an interesting one as it does make you wonder what the plan is in the halves because three into two doesn't go and with all three likely to be on big wages and one being a quota player, we have to have all three in the team (fitness and durability issues notwithstanding). Noticed Jenna didn't link us with Bateman despite the rumours and also said his preference is to stay in the NRL.

Looks like Sao will be here next season. Visa issues complicating his fire brigade job.

Couple people suggesting Houghton might fancy another year…

I'd be happy with that as long as its elsewhere.

Grix mentioned after the Huddersfield game that DH has been struggling for weeks, partly due to his age, and yet we still persist in flogging him every game. That's not doing either the man or the team any good. So I can't help but feel that there needs to be a parting of the ways now because it just feels like no one at the club is strong enough to go with a different approach and manage his game time better. I have all the respect in the world for the man and what he has accomplished at the club but it's time for a change.

Houghton is going to end up with some long term damage to his body if he tries to go on. I can't see it myself, he seemed fairly set on retiring before this season but got the feeling he went around again as we had no other hooking options at the time

Very interesting.

Overseas hooker? We had an international one and played him at half back

O 'Meley was shipped around SL a couple of seasons ago . Good spot about Fed trained aswell.
