Shows what you know then Gekko doesnt it, he played back row in his first SL appearance, he was played in the back row of our academy most of the time and always played well there.

Yet played all his career elswhere at hooker

Cannot beleive you seriously think he's a back rower. Looks like the best think he did was get away from Rovers

The fact he has had to play back row for Rovers says more about the coaching than anything else. The kid is an out and out hooker end of.

He does not even have the build for any position other than Hooker, I have never heard anything like it to be fair

Rumour has it - Widnes were prepared to offer him big bucks so he held out at Rovers turning a contract down but when Widnes were not offered a licence he came back and asked if the offer was still there. By then the chance was gone and so Cas snapped him up.

Yeah, I heard a similar story. Shame because he was getting plenty of game time (and at hooker ) at Rovers and despite what some people predicted, looked every bit a SL player.

Can't blame the kid for wanting to get what he can, just think the club were looking for a bit more commitment.

So your calling Justin Morgan a fool??? He played Kirk in the back row on more than one successful occasion, he's got the build to play anywhere, rugby league now is about athleticism not every hooker has to look like Terry Newton or Kieron Cunningham!

Ben Cockayne played prop the other week against Leeds, he doesnt have the build but he has the ability to drive the ball in at speed and make the opposition work to tackle him.

James Roby is regularly played at loose man, a player who's build you obviously think is for only that of a hooker?!

Grow up and stop making yourself look stupid, Kirk has played in numerous positions and plays very well in the second row and lock positions somewhere I think he would benefit playing more in due to his good attacking angled runs and his work rate in defence.

I dont care, he aint a second row and he would tell you that himself.

You will be telling us that Fitzhenry is a hooker and Rhys Lovegrove is a centre/prop/full back/second row/winger/half next

If he had persisted in playing him the back row he would have been a fool. But he realised he was a hooker and played him there.

Just remind me who won that game.

Roby is different class and playes in a team with quality in every position.

Players can play out of position from time to time and i have no problem with that, but to say Kirk is a better back rower than hooker shows how stupid you really are and thats the end of it.
