Ah, no Roberts, surprise, surprise. It just goes to show the idiocy of DR. He was in last weeks squad and therefore presumably trained with us. Giants don't allow him to be in this weeks squad so training without him. What a waste of time. I wonder what our own players think of the situation?

Cmon Pete keep up , Hudds won’t let you play Roberts because it would cuptie to you , and Hudds couldn’t play him later , it’s the same with us we DR with Saints ,Dan Norman and Jake Wingfield can’t can’t for us , after they played against York , it’s just the rules .

It will be interesting who gets the nod at fullback because i thought aston had a poor game against widnes and if you are going to drop jouffret for his performance at batley then he needs to drop cory this week.The team i would go with is.

salty
mcomb
barber
arundel
walmsley
keyes
jouffret
gwaze
moore
kavanagh
oakley
tangata
fairbank

murray
calcott
larroyer
wood

I realise that Ian. The points i am making refer to the disruption around training for a player who in the end up didn't come and the effect on team morale. It's utter codswallop! Up The Fax!

Pete , I know yer views on DR , and respect yer opinion , the thing is the player on DR trains with his parent Club during the week till around Thursday when he goes to train with his adopted Club , I grant you not ideal but it’s how things are .
Again morale of the team can be boosted or be negative , we at Leigh keep signing all these overseas players , some fans think it’s wrong and affects the players knowing at whatever time a player can come in and take their place , it’s like familiarity breeding contempt , I see it as the original team members thinking , it will make them put in extra effort to keep their place .
Good luck for Sunday .

Roberts is a good player and probably just the sort of forward we need, especially as it sounds Matty Gee is not likely to play in the near future. Doesn't appear to feature in Huddersfield plans and therefore could well be available long term. I would personally like to see him play next week - if this weeks pack know that's a possibility you'd like to think each one is motivated to make sure its not them that makes way. This isn't about flooding the team with random different players each week but hopefully providing someone who can play regularly for us, improving the team which we couldn't otherwise afford.

In that case the loan system, with a minimum timescale, is available to be used.

Not sure in reality what the difference is - last year we had Hewitt and Borough on season long loans and they were pulled back by their clubs seemingly when they wanted. I may well be wrong but I also thought that with a loan we would be responsible for players wages but not with DR.

Simply write the minimum length of the loan into the deal. If the clubs can't agree to that, no deal and look elsewhere.
