The fact we was considering Jared sammut means they maybe thinking of moving somebody on ... and the fact we have turned down dec Patton means we are looking for a decent player higher up the market although I would of said Patton may have been a short term fix untill Lewis gets more game time... any rumours on any more players coming in I’d be happy if we got that young half from Leeds him and Lewis in a few seasons would be a great half back pairing

We do not know that Sammut was considered, only that HDM reporter understands that we had. They frequently get things wrong and even if they were right it might only be that his name was circulated. Non of our overseas players would be sacrificed for him.

With Tony Smith biding his time looking at halfbacks it got me thinking who might become available should they not feature much for their contracted side.

McLelland on loan from Leeds perhaps (Lui, Gale and currently Myler)
Atkin on loan (Brown and Lolohea). Appreciate that one is maybe highly unlikely

Any other British halfbacks that spring to mind that may be options if not getting game time outside of those already discussed?

Danny Brough

He might as well, he's played for everyone else.

Is he staying with you? Not that I want him, unless he brings back his "Badger" do.

He is contracted for next season yes, whether he gets a game or not who knows - Not sure of Chesters plans.

He may end up at a championship club on loan.

No chance at all

Well, Keinhorst to York for the season, to me, the worst bit of off season business Tony Smith has done, I know we have brought in some backs, but not a big if any improvements overall, targeting some better forwards and a 7 should have been the goal.

Will see how it goes

Re: Squad 2020 : Mon Dec 02, 2019 2:25 pm  

It looks like its jamie ellis to solve our halfback problem,personally would rather give keyes or lewis a run,ellis is average at best imo.

Re: Squad 2020 : Mon Dec 02, 2019 7:06 pm  

Well it looks like they can not find a number 7 so we will have to go with Ellis not a bad thing till Lewis is up to speed

Strange signing, although once you know who his agent is, it makes sense.
