| The strongest rumours seem to be around Green, Hall, Mason and Radford. From a Rovers perspective what do you think they would offer?
IMO...
Green seems most certain to be coming, but I know least about him. Murrell has done well at 6, but bringing in a 6 that can play 7 at least means it isn't season over if Dobson picked up an injury.
Hall I think is a gamble well worth taking. He won't be on a huge wage - at worst he'll provide better cover in the 3/4s, at best he could start to fulfill his undoubted potential as a top strike centre. Would probably be our back-up goal kicker too. Rumours that other clubs are interested, no doubt for those reasons.
Mason would be a much bigger gamble. Could go either way. I'm nervous about his (possible) signing, but I have to admit that if somebody else was signing him, excepting maybe Leeds and Wigan, I'd think it a coup for them. Mixed feelings, basically.
Radford I do like him, he's solid. But could maybe get younger solid, cheaper? We need to include more young players than most to make up our club-trained quota, so maybe a bit more experience around the place will be good and he has plenty of that.

| Green - yes, good player, only young, a lot of time to develop.
Hall - meh. Stick him in the reserves and have him as cover, but don't want him in the first team before Welham/Webster.
Mason - Don't think he would have that much of an impact, although just having his name on your teamsheet is an advantage, due to his reputation.
Radford - I like him too. Out of FC's squad I would only take Manu and Briscoe before him. Great squad player, good experience and does a lot of the unnoticed stuff.

Believe it Sheldon!
The likes of O'Meley, Fitzgibbon, Houghton, Berrigan, Lauaki, Moa et al can't hold a candle to Radford.

| Mason would be the better signing out of those.
He'd increase season ticket sales and merchandise, get massive media attention and most importantly be a top player, very different to what hkr have now and need.

i agree bigtime who ever signs mason in SL would have got a great signing from a media point of view and i think he'd do a very good job over here for any of the top 8 teams........ never thought i agree with sheldon ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

Id personally take him over Berrigan (overpaid and overhyped imo) Lauaki (just dont like him) and Moa (dont rate him at all and imo isnt fit enough for high end RL)
Houghton - We have Josh so dont want him.
Would take Orge and Fitz over him though - but couldnt get them on the same wage.
