Hmmmm... Not been as good this year i dont think, but he is still a good player, and maybe more importantly, he's British.

Contracted until end of 2010 and testimonial next year IIRC.

I'll believe this one when I see it.

I think his wage demands would probably price him out of Rovers tbh. I think we are fine with Fisher and Fitz and if Fitz does leave I think we should be looking at bringing an academy player through there, or maybe even using Cockayne in that role.

I don't personally see the point in having two senior specialist hookers in there, we should use the opportunity to bring somebody through the ranks. Fisher is a very good hooker and, in my opinion, not a player we need to be replacing in the near future. I think there are plenty of other positions on the pitch that could do with being strengthened before we prioritise a new hooker.

I disagree. I would say its the main position we need to strengthen and not one that should be taken lightly with stopgap players.

The Diskin rumour has been doing the round for months i very much doubt it will happen in all honesty. If Rovers are looking for a back up hooker they have an ideal replacemnt much closer to home and he's available.

Hasn't Danny Buderus just broken his leg? I can't see Leeds letting Diskin go when it will take time for Buderus to get back to full fitness.

Does he count as home grown by any chance?

Federation trained i think.

But on top of that there is Scott Spaven though i think he needs a little more time.
