Thanks for your service. I assume Blease signed Livett when he was at Salford, so it'd make sense, but he'd just be holding back a youngster at this point. He was definitely a talent when he was younger, but not sure what he'd add to a team now, other than options. I'm not so sure we need anything right now. Keep the squad as settled as possible until the season starts, and see who's available at the midway point. Something might come up.

I agree.I don't want to sign anyone who isnt going to be in the 17.He would only block Littlewood a player that the club rate highly.

Livett sounds a bit too close to L. Rivett. Scars of 1999-2000 not quite healed.

Seriously though, he seemed to be a strong running forward who had a habit of cutting us up a few years ago. What happened to his development that saw him out of favour at a club like Huddersfield?

He would add speed to the second row

It's whether Arthur sees it that way though. He's very hard-nosed and I'm not sure that a highly rated youngsters gets picked ahead of a journeyman (for want of a better word) who maybe is 10% ahead in terms of immediate gain.

Littlewood doesn't turn 18 till January, so realistically he shouldn't be anywhere near the 1st team for a couple of years. What the club needs to do is come up with a proper pathway for lads like him, Lumb, McCormack etc. To my mind that would involve time at championship clubs where they are actually going to play. We are short for senior second rowers with only Bentley, McDonnell and Gannon, so a player like Livett on a one year contract would be a good move in my opinion.
