Whiting offers a damn sight more than Hadley ever will,better hands,runs better angles and tackles better.Just not seen anything in Hadley to suggest he will be a starting back rower after the departures of our current back rowers,Turget needs to go out IMO as this kid has the potential to be outstanding.

Hadley was great back end of last year, will probably be next in line for back row, so i'd imagine he'll play 23's when not needed.

Whiting's been poor for two seasons now, he'll probably be used more in a nurturing role within the 23's. Don't see him playing at all, except for a serious injury list.

DEAN HADLEY is, who is who he was talking about, think you've got a bit confused.

Dean Hadley will start 2016 at 13

Bloody hope not

Me too!

Id like to see a pack of

Ellis
Houghton
Watts
Mini
Pritchard
Manu/Abdul

Bench

Taylor
Green/Bowden/Feka (depending on form/opposition)
Thompson
Abdul/Manu

we can bring Abdul on to add another dimension to our attack, or if we need some defensive steel bring Manu on

I agree. Hadley was excellent at the end of last season when he got a run of games due to injuries. Really good defensively for a kid of his age and his offence is improving

abdul will be like a passenger at 13. By all means bring him on there to add something to the attack but he doesn't have the offensive or defensive work rate to play back row currently

imo abdull can be our num 13 for many years to come,derserves a starting berth at 13 if he goes well in training and in the friendlies

I still think playing Abdull at 13 would be a waste tbh. He's the most naturally gifted 6 we've developed in a generation and could be an international one day. We shouldn't put him in the back row just because he's a big lad, his skillset is far more suited to the halves.

Yeh the years developing him at 13 in the acadamy was a complete waste of time!!!

No thanks, he just isn't a 13 despite what some keep saying, he isn't that type of player IMHO.

Desperately needs to drop a stack of weight and find some speed

He played 13 at youth simply because of his size. He needs to trim down and play 6 because he's years away from being a full time SL 13.

All of them !!!!!
