Forever in debt to your priceless advice.

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light

If we get chase and holdsworth, plus 2 decent props and a reasonable full back, then the side will be transformed. Throw in bateman and things look better again, even if we do lose tickle .

I don't agree that mcdonnell is as good as mckinnon, but at least he wants to be here

McKinnon had moments of class, but he often had the odd brain-fart. I'd prefer McDonnell on the whole. At least he won't get homesick. Besides, there are no decent FB's around that are OOC. We know what it's like to force a player there.

Full backs are born, not created.

It can't just be me that wouldn't be happy with McDonnell. For me, he would have a lot to prove if we sign him.
He doesn't appear very safe under the highball, and he's missed 18.5% of his tackles attempted this season.

Tomkins has missed 18.5%
Wellens - 20.4%
Hodgson - 34.6%
Greenshields - 24.8%

Due to the position they play.

I don't think that's at all bad considering he had Hall,Webster,Welham and Dobson in front of him. :lol:

Yeah, apart from London and Widnes, don't Rovers have the worst missed tackles stats? Institutional crapitude, one might say. Under a decent coach etc...

We're forgetting the Gentle factor here. He's obviously seen something he likes and I trust his judgement more than anyone on here who thinks only Billy Slater is good enough for us.
