We have signed him on loan at Leigh.

How is he rated at the Giants? I know he isn't rated by Fax judging by the coments made when he went on loan there!

Has he any pace?

I think some rate him and some dont.

I personally think he is not SL standard, but should do well for you guys. For me he seems to be at a skill level between SL and CCL, were he plays well at the CCL, but seems to struggle at the higher level of SL.

great kicker suffered a lot with injuries, but when he has played in sl never let the team down, you would do well to sign him

not sure r-d, i think he's probably missed the boat now, he's been a squad player for a number of years now and never really kicked on, i think he is talented and never let us down when he has been called up, but i dont think he will be ever make the grade as a super league regular.

he'll do a job for leigh though undoubtedly

If you mean Leigh MR then he might be one of your best players. :wink:
Seriously though, he has a decent kicking game and that's it. He rarely takes the line on, gets knocked off tackles most of the time and doesn't create much at all if anything. Against Rochdale in the cup he was shown up by their half backs. I wish him well though where ever he ends up. I'd love him to come back to us and prove me wrong but i feel SL and the top half of the National league are too high for him.

When has he ever played ath the higher level of SL? Hemmingway struggles with Championship pace rugby. Did nothing recently at Halifax, Was poor on a loan spell at Batley. He has nothing to offer other than his goal kicking.

Unfortunatly the name Tom Hemmingway will get loast in Championship/1 in seasons to come.
