I rate lunt loads and in my eyes he should be in the 17 every week

Lunt, Moore, Faiumu, how many hookers are we going to play each week?

Drop Moore, he has been sloppy in recent weeks.

You would if you knew you'd be leaving our state of the art facilities for St Helens.

I'm surprised he is not crying when out on the field.

Have you noticed all the trys he scores, seem to be from 5 yds out and straight over defence line via dummy pass. All his trys seem to have a trademark about them, I'm sure all SL coaches will pick up on it.

Excellent signing tho for Giants.

Nothing unusual about a hooker burrowing over from dummy half, except that we've not really had anyone adept at it since Darren Turner.

I thought he had a poor game (along with many others) at Warrington but I thought he played well in Edinburgh. I expect he will be back in and back to his best against Salford.

Lunt and Moore have been playing at hooker and Faiumu has been playing at 13.

IMO Faiumu has been going really well at 13 since returning to the squad from injury

Do you not think that part of that is tiredness as he is a busy hooker and Brown plays him for a lot of minutes every game.

In that case who would your back 3 be from Faiumu, Raleigh, Wild, Kirmond, Lolesi and Finnigan.

5 if you count interchanges and Raleigh is injured so you've answered your own question

Perhaps, but he has been throwing scrappy passes out from minute one recently

Really I am just playing devils advocate, Faiumu is, in my opinion a better option than either Lunt or Moore - his passes are crisper, his go forward is better (at the moment) and so he should get the bulk of the game time I think.

Am I right in thinking Lunt has scored in each match he has played in? Certainly seems like he has...definately a rising star of the game anyway.

As has been said, if Faiumu is playing at 13, where then for Wild? At 13 he is superb, utterly his best position

all in all, we have a great back row, and great centres, and 3 very good hookers
