Thoughts?'"
No I think the last thing our squad needs is 2 quality international players.

| I think they'll improve what we have already. I'd be suicidal if they were worse in ability and commitment to what we have now.
Them 2 in (if they get here) then ship 2 out who are to$$ing it off and just picking up wages every week. That'll make others sit up and take notice to get their fingers out or they'll be next through the gates. I'm sure Celtic would be glad of some fresh faces to try kick start their season, or perhaps our rejects could find employment in lower leagues and see what its like to do a 40 hour week and not get paid if they dont work or make the suitable standard.
Not sure it would make our gameplan different, if indeed we are playing to the coaches gameplan.

Of course they will make us improve, for one its two new faces to inlighten the Hull players spirits and Crocker is a winner and wont stop and wont let others stop slacking in order to win, Luaki will bring presence and impact, and give our forwards a much needed rest espeschially Manu.

Depends on how much 'pitch' time he gets

He'll have is work cut out here then! He is exactly what we need on the pitch, unfortunately he won't be able to tan the backsides of those that matter off the pitch.
Just on that, the only player to show any enthusiasm uder the sticks (were we spend a lot of time at the moment) is Tommy Lee.

| I think Crocker's arrival would give everyone a buzz fans, players etc... together with his winning mentality it can only be positive
Even better if he can play scrum half

| Both will improve us, Hame would add impact and power and would help deflect attention away from Manu as we could alternate them or play Hame on the right.
Crocker would bring steel, a will to win and professionalism to the side and he would be the leader we desperately need.

| Crocker should bring the same work ethic as Kearney brought. He will not stand for any $hite. Think it will give Radders and Tickle the kick up the botty that they need. Also players will have to be on the top of their game to get a place in the team.
All this depends on whether they come and if Agar finds his 'Rugby League Coaching for Dummies' book!

| Of course they would improve our team, 2 quality players, Crocker possibly the best 2nd row player in the world.
If only we knew one way or another if they will play for us though lol

| There is no guarantee that Crocker will play well when (if) he arrives, he wont have played a competitive game for nearly 6 months.

I'd need skin dye mate!
I'm not being overly negative, just honest, he could go one of two ways, full of gusto because he's sick of being off the field, or completely disinterested as thepassion has gone.

I see no reason he should be disinterested. He's a professional rugby league player who is proven at the very highest level. If he gets here, I expect him to play to the standards we are used to seeing (from him, not the rest of the garbage we have to watch).

I very much doubt Crocker has lost the passion to play rugby. Even if his performances are not top notch his influence on other players should really help us.
IF he does come I can say with great certainty he will be getting slagged off on here a few games in.
