Sutcliffe hadn't done anything for years and we were right to let him go, just because hes going ok at Hull doesn't mean we should have kept him. The change of scenery has probably done him good too.

sutcliffe was messed about position wise by leeds for years.
he was never a superstar but never let us down either. he is missed

Justin Holbrook has been sacked by Gold Coast Titans, reckon we could be interested if Rohan doesn't turn the team around very quickly. Holbrook started St Helens Dominance of past 4/ 5 seasons so he has pedigree in super league, I personally like Rohan as a coach but we all know how professional sports teams work now and the head coach is first to go when things aren't working out, I reckon if we have a shocking performance against Hudds tomorrow by end of weekend who knows who'll be in our coaching position.

Interesting times eh?
Lose on Friday and I cant see anything else but Rohan getting the boot.

So we'll probably win by miles and go back to being on our way to Old Trafford again.

If we do lose on Friday dont we collect the set of losing to every Yorkshire side this year?

We moved him about position wise but he never really showed anything in any position. He played ok at centre but he never passed no matter which position.

I meant sutcliffe being retained as a preferable options to Olpherts who has been a terrible signing.

That would be some accolade given the current positions of Yorkshire teams in the league.

Sutcliffe would have been a far better option in the centre than the current options of Martin, Roberts, Olpherts etc.

Yes he would, but he's not a backup centre is he, he's a first choice player.
He was replaced with Nene not Olpherts or Roberts

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Thu Jun 22, 2023 12:41 pm  

And he wasnt happy as a back up player, so he wanted to leave.

If the back line is fit neither Olpherts or Sutcliffe would get a look in.
