Agree totally we have two young talented British centres who deserve their shot at a starting position , we should be developing Briscoe and Hall now and that means giving them a shot in the first team (Both have proven they are more than capable of holding their own and impressing in super league) they will make mistakes all yougsters do its a way of learning . If we are to sign another overseas would rather see Moa signed as I think that would be more beneficial to us then an injury prone centre.

Ashley gibson leaving Rhinos could we be interested ? I doubt it myself alot depends on where we plan on playing jordan turner ?

Very injury prone but a talented kid, Going to Rovers I think!

or castleford on their forum

Youngsters don't always learn from mistakes, so it's not their way of learning. They may not know what they're doing wrong. That is why we need an EXPERIENCED world class centre to guide these along. We have a world class hooker, scurm half, prop and second rower in the team now. We have too well established international wingers. We just have youths in the centres and the FB role. We need someone to guide them.

Is that even possible?

Agree too.

Far too many English centres don't get their chance because of overseas signings- it seems to be a position clubs like to buy in. Too many young centres become second row/ loose forwards because of a lack of opportunity in their natural position- and the last thing either England- or FC in particular need is another second row forward. Probably our most exciting player now is Briscoe, and Hall looks to have really benefited from his time away.

And get rid of Horne!?

If we can land a top class 6, Horne can move to centre or full back.

People have just been moaning that signing Tate is pointless seeing as we already have Briscoe, Hall and maybe Turner for the centre spot also even Whiting so why put Horne their? I've never wanted Horne at fb. Tansey will be spot on at fb imo and should stay there.

Imo don't put Horne at centre, if we aren't signing Tate then stick one of the youngsters there who are at the beginning of their careers not someone who is half way through it. For me give it to Hall he looks twice the player at centre than Horne would be.

couldnt agree more

Tansey is a better FB already, and Hall a better centre.

Not yet.

I would swap Horne and Tansey now, let Tansey have a run at 6

Based on the evidence of this season that would be a backward step for both of them.

I thought Horne was alright at Full back. He would also be a great support player in attack, similar to Briscoe. He can catch, tackle and be in the right position. Tansey for my eye (and his own words IIRC) would look like giving us a few more running attacking options. Just my opinion mind, but he looks suspect a little at fullback (defensively)
