What about Kyle Woods at Sheffield he is going well..................not sure if he would like to come back

Why the panic, you can't just go out and sign players at moments like this, all it does is disrupt the team. Signings should be planned and we don't need a half back long term and any player worth his salt will see that. Obst may well play on friday, Brough is only weeks away as is Latu. Even Southernwood is due back soon, not that IMO he is ready for SL. As for Wood he is no better than Davy or Wildy in the Academy.

Drew, Obst and Martin will have to hold the fort - it's that simple.

Why Trinity fans go into a blind panic I have no idea, what next bring back Ronnie Troutman.

would expect Obst to be on the field Friday, He can't have been that far off if he was in the 19; like wise with Scully. Salford at home is not a game to rushy your 50/50s back for, i would suggest that Warrington would be.

Will expect Maritn to line up in the 6 position; will have to play better than he did on Sunday.

Are you a complete joke or just not very bright? Martin is not a 6 but has manfully stepped in and had a dig, put in a couple of very nice kicks and didn't put a foot wrong in defense all game on Sunday.

i know this might sound mad but if scully is fit and available why not play him at stand off??? he is a ball playing forward with a eye for a gap gotta kicking game and thinks he is a half back anyway!!! well its just an idea

I wouldn't worry about halfbacks this week, we have none playing at the moment.

This was just after we announced his signature and before he arrived. Imagine our surprise to find he was 3'2".
