New number 9? : Tue Mar 03, 2020 2:44 pm  

So we now know Keal had been forced into early retirement.
SG has mentioned Fax will be actively looking for a replacement and said a few names have already come up but it needs to be the right choice at the right price with something likely to happen in the next couple of weeks.
Still early doors but what has anyone heard, thoughts etc?

Be surprised if there was much available at this stage of season.Not sure there's much urgency with Moore doing the big minutes and Davies as cover.Would have thought loan/DR was the way forward for now-maybe Harris can cover 6/7/9 ?

Harris to 7, Gilly to 6 then Muzza to 9

Whilst I am not up to speed on Muzza's fitness this year, it is only a couple of seasons ago he was not quick, nimble or agile enough for number 9. What's happened? If he has found anti aging serum can someone ask where he got it, I want some.

Bit fitter this year but his days of potential at hooker are long gone.

Shuddersfield, our DR masters/partners are looking to loan Reiss Butterworth a 21 year old hooker to York. Just saying.

As we have young cover I will edge towards someone with more experience, either as a permanent signing or a loan deal, if obviously there is anyone available who fits the bill.
Possibly a fringe SL player keen to play who’s not getting a regular start at his current club.

Is Tom Holmes injured? Either that or not available to us?
