I can't say I've ever seen Lino do anything massively impressive, I rated his performance against Warrington in the cup last year where he stood out but across a three year stretch it's no accolade.

However I am fairly excited to see him against SL opposition with presumably an improved and less injury riddled pack versus what we've had previously. You can see he's eager to run the ball and throw the little goose step, get a proper organiser with him in the halves and let's see what he can do.

That said I don't see Russell or Trueman as those types of halfback.

I agree - and when you put it like that it shows how light we are in the pack. Two props and a second rower for next season would do nicely. 

Hood on his way to Cas?!

That's how it goes, I'd have been more than happy if he'd stayed but only for another year. But you've no control when players leave and where they go.Hood will go well for them if he signs, but he's another year older and we know full well what he's capable of.

Losing TJ is a huge blow to getting in the 6 imo so I hope it’s not long. 


Losing the left edge of Pratt and TJ imo contributed to us losing at Hull. We lose a lot of metres, strong settled defence and experience on that wing. 


Is Russell injured again? I thought he’d be back in to be honest. 


At least Ollie back at centre will help somewhat.
