In the same position as he was before Long got injured, it's the Heremaia deal whcih affects Obst, not signing a halfback. |

You're right, he needs to play otherwise don't bother signing him. PLaying reserve grade will do him no good, might aswell have stayed at Leigh. |

Dykes went off injured at home against Hudds. Went off after 10 mins with the injury that was to keep him out of the final |

I think Agar said last week he wanted plenty of options in the pivots,just like Hudds,so can't see Obst going anywhere,regardless if Long get's another year,or we sign another half. |

After reading all the pros and cons on this thread,my own personal opinion is Long should call it a day.Nobody is a bigger fan of him than me,he has obviously given his all at Saints,and now his body is paying the price.I put elsewhere,it has been a hugh disappointment to me that it has not worked out for him at Hull.Whatever he does next,nobody can deny in his prime he was class.

If he signs another 2 year deal at Widnes who are interested him it could tarnish his reputation and he will just be known as a guy who didn't know when to hang up his boots. |

You are correct,and that would be a sad end to a great player.I truly hope he calls it a day. |

We should keep Obst.Look at Hudds now,they have lost Brough for 8 weeks,and Grix is injured,so plenty of cover in the pivots is a must.Lucky for them they have plenty of options,so it won't do us any harm,doing the same.

I think we have little choice but to throw Ellis in at the deep end and start him at 7 next season. IIRC Danny Brough was a similar age when we signed him and Dobson was even younger when he started playing first grade in SL? |
