I think its easy to sometimes think of the winger as the last and least important player in the team, you can almost think you can stick anyone there and get away with it (in a way we have sticking Whiting there). Look how many tries from nothing that a top quality winger like Briscoe brings. If Jordan Turner keeps improving like he has I just wonder if we would be better looking for another TOP quality winger - I just dont think Sharpe or Lynn are going to be that person and would much rather see Whiting on the bench covering numerous positions perhaps (or invevitably filing in one of the back line positions when we have injuries)

Agree I also think this is a done deal.

Think the club should let us know what is actually going on with Gleeson is he staying or going

If Gleeson's under the Doctor for stress related illness Hull would have to be very careful approaching him at all, particularly as there won't be a queue looking to pick his deal up.

Gleeson out,Broughton in?????






Aussie Centre????????

Still no word on Burnett ? I know he is out of contract but would he be the depth SR we need ? What kind of year did he have at Quims ?

I am more inclined to give these wingers a chance under the new setup, see what hopefully a good coach can do with them.

I think a good along with Turner would be good cover for us.

I can definately see an Aussie and lets face Peter Gentle will know one that he rates as an exciting prospect even that would light up superleague and maybe not a top star but I just have a sneaky feeling that we might just get a name announced to increase our reduced season ticket prices.

My glass is always half full, in fact its brimmimg.

Doesn't solve our backrow bench spot issue though. Don't see the point in Broughton, I like him but we should be developing Sharp and Lyn.

Maybe i'm crazy but i like Sharp... He works hard, he's fast and as he showed on Sunday he is good one on one defensively.. He will benefit from having a decent centre partner which he's never had!! If we put him on the left he would be a quality winger!!

The exact position he played well for quins,but we tried playing him on the opposite side.

Exactly.... People can be too quick to jump on a players back...

I said it was a mistake after his second game.

I have not been impressed with Sharp I have been concerned about his defence, however I recognise he has speed and heart, and if he stays it will be a clean slate for me under a new coach (who incidentally was a defensive coach) and support the lad.
