Michael Monaghan was a great hooker
Mickey Higham was a good hooker
Daryl Clarke can be a great hooker, and is a good hooker.

Brad Dywer is an average hooker.

Well Clark is only 24 so we are not looking for a 'player in waiting', and I don't think Dwyer has that ability. He is a good bench hooker but I wouldn't see him as first choice. So presumably Dwyer has not been re-signed because his wage demands were too high or we thought Morgan Smith was a better option. Either way, is there much to choose between Smith and Dwyer ? Presumably we cant keep them both.

Dwyer is a reasonable interchange hooker with a bit of pace and great defence. His decision making is suspect though. Overall it's not one that has me too disappointed.

Was great in an anytime try scorer acca last year! 4/1 a lot of time and was getting over regularly. Shame to see him dip think a change will be good for him

To clarify, I was saying he was a good signing, as in he will do a job for Leeds as I think a change of scene will do him good.

That would be far too much salary cap to spend on two players for one position, when Clark is more than capable of playing 60 minutes plus.

We kind of used to that now, been one of my bugs signing players near to end of career. But would we say no to Cooper Cronk who willbe 34 by time of 2018.

That would be right providing injury didn't prevent that...all to often.
