Milner or Clark? : Wed Feb 01, 2012 12:43 pm  

Hey Cas fans,

Just a quick question.

If I've got this correct, they are both hooker yes? Who do you all see as the better player out for Milner and Clark?

TIA.

Two different types of player.

Cunningham and Roby-esque really.

Ahh I see, I'm guessing that Hudson will be your starting hooker, so who will be on the bench?

I think wel see Milner at 7 quite alot this year, freeing up hudson and Clark to alternate at 9.

Danny Orr is a better player than Hudson so why would you play Milner out of position to make room for Hudson who isn't as good as either Milner or Clark?

Hudson will be a backup for both hooker and loose forward.

That's what I would think too. Orr and Chase at half back, Clark and Milner to interchange at hooker. Maybe Hudson on the bench as cover for hooker/loose/second row. He just doesn't really have the speed around the ruck to cause the defence too many problems any more.

Judging by how Millward has played in pre-season I think we'll see Hudson and Clark starting the season.

if he cuts out the stupid offload when getting tackled then hes a good player to have on bench,cracking tackler aswell

Just going by what Millward has done in pre-season, and Milner has played 7 before so how would it be out of position?

Does that mean Rob Burrow plays out of position for Leeds when he plays at 9? No he doesnt because he is capable at doing both effectively, same as Milner

Its pretty obvious from pre season that basil sees milner playing scrum half when Danny orr retires.Hudson is a tricky one its not nice to say but I hope he gets injured so there is no confusion who will be playing at hooker.
