Still only 27 - and just what we need in our pack especially If Eorl IS moving on at the end of this year. We have cap space thanks to lunts tantrum - and plenty of quota spots!
What do you think?

If he does come to super league i think one of the big boys and /or salford would be favourites,
certainly would probably do a job for us though

What makes you think Eorl is moving on? Is he out of contract end of season, but why move on. I also think while he has been good for the club
he is not the player he was. When he was on form and drawing three or four into the tackle and getting an offload out or even quick play the ball when the tacklers were still picking themselves up, now it seems to take him so long to get up and play the ball the opposition are all back in position waiting for it. Good servant for the club and long serving but perhaps it is time to move on.

Crabtree is still our best forward

And in terms of meters made, tackles made, average gain and hit ups is still amongst the best in super league

Cracking player entirely misjudged because he isn't a one big trick show pony

I would have expected it to be announced if hed signed an extension like robbo has. There are rumours he's going with leigh one club being bandied about- I'm happy for him to stay on!

Yes, would love him to come here....Fa'aologo and O'Donnell in flashes we've not had a top Aussie forward since Skando and they do seem to have more brute about them. Can't see it though, i would presume he will go to the top bidder.

Cant see crabtree going to another club, sure they will do all they can to keep him even when he hangs his boots up.

Eorl's not going anywhere! Only wants to play for the Giants and Baloo wants him to stay so just formalities to sort out.






This will be our year......................................................Hopefully!
But maybe not with child running amock.
