The giants also say if anything happens to their senior second rows through injury they will have a match for player ready to come straight back in so it’s a win win from their perspective.
So we could be a player down because of injuries at another team so it’s not a season long loan it sound a bit duel reg but another name. I’d love him to be at Panthers all season seems a good lad but it’s the SL team getting the best deal when we could be left short.
There's never a perfect solution with players who aren't yours.
At this stage of recruitment most if not all of the permanent signings are done and dusted not just at Fax, er sorry Panthers but at other clubs as well.
Halifax have a couple of slots still open and are still looking to fill them, preferably with one of their own but if not with someone like Sam who's got a good pedigree and is keen to play.
It's either that or you have empty shirts.
Even if he is available for the full season he still has to perform better than our own second rowers like Matt Garside, Kev Laroyer, Ed Barber, Paul Brierley etc otherwise he won't be playing anyway.
