Season over for me - no chance of 6th
Won’t be relegated so this is quite dangerous for us
What have they to play for ? nothing !

that’s how you lose a lot of matches so can’t really see a FC win this weekend

We don’t even know if Lovodua is the answer at hooker yet.
He needs a run there so we can find out, but suspect the deal has been done.

Still think we need a Levi/Parcell/Dwyer type of hooker

Lover doesn't want to play 9 so what do we do with him, I personally think he's a decent 13 and that's it not good enough for 2nd row, centre or 6 on a regular basis IMO

That shouldn't be his choice, he was signed as a hooker and if the coach wants him to play hooker then he should play there. If not get rid, we can't have players disrespecting the club and coach my choosing where they play.

Not the first time i've heard/read that Lovodua doesn't fancy playing at 9. I think he would make a good 13 but we already seem pretty stacked in that area.

A utility overseas player in a bit of a luxury in current set up, we need a hooker for next season.

Correct Dave is he worth all the hype, I'd rather Danny have one more year with Balmforth of the bench so Danny can help him not sure Lover is as good as he's made out to be.

Lovodua needs to find his position.

I know he has his faults, but wouldn't mind Dywer next season, at least he offers some threat with his running game.

Sounds a shambles if players are dictating where they’d rather play.
Not sure he can do a job there yet.
If not get Dwyer in.

I also think we need to persist with Connor at 6, as I think that's where the plan to play him next season, give him the next few games to see how he goes, got to give players a few games to find their form.

If that is true then sorry but he gets no other deal with the club, we want players that want to play for the club no matter where they are asked to play.

Absolutely. Get rid.

Signed as a hooker and that looks the best position for him.

If he’s not happy with that then goodbye and sign a proper hooker.

This is a crazy situation. Lots of us have been saying why hasn't Lovodua been playing hooker and the reason he hasn't could be because he doesn't want to play there!!

What does that say about his attitude. I wonder if that could be why his contract extension has not been announced. If we haven't re-signed him get a specialist hooker in who wants to play there.

Id play Smith as hooker off the bench this weekend, see how he goes, but use him properly bring him on after 20 minutes and take Houghton off, particularly in the heat.

To be honest Dave if Houghton plays I just can not see BH spelling him as that just seems to be an alien concept its as though its written in stone he plays for 80.
