I did wonder if o'connor might end up at salford

O'Connor is very much Rohan's guy. Doubt he will go anywhere. Wouldn't be shocked if Johnson ended up leaving tho

I'd have no issues with Johnson leaving if we get Ackers.

I would rather he went out on loan.

Jackson Hastings has said that reports of him being interested in Salford are fake.
Does a Matt Shaw work with the mole?

Take your point, but if O'Connor isn't a hooker then he isn't really anything in the modern game. Although Johnson has some virtues to his game, his defence in the middle of the field is very average. That’s the conundrum, how long do you wait for these lads to develop/catch up? The answer is - when there is a better option in his prime available, you don't. If Corey or even O'Connor wants to move on as a result you just have to live with it.

You can't keep them all I know, just think it's too early for CJ given the gap in development and joc hasn't had a full preseason with him training to play hooker. If we get Ackers fir a few years that's great ,but we have to be thinking what after that.

If they both want to stay that’s great. I just think one of them will likely one to depart at sometime during the season if they aren't playing regularly.

Even as a more positive member if this forum (!) I am genuinely shocked we have pulled this off.

Really interested to know if there are any others coming.
