Rob Burrow is off contract and wants to play in the halves so I'm not sure he'd go as part of any deal, and there's no way Danny Houghton is worth the same as Sam Tomkins.

If Leeds are offering dosh + Burrow for Houghton, I'd take it. He's a great tackler, but slow at DH with poor decision making. Passes aren't accurate either.
Here's a question, would you have kept Hodgson or Houghton?

In hindsight you would have to say Hodgson by a distance. But at the time we all thought Houghton would kick on and we didn't know much about Hodgson.

Pah, I bet you were one saying don't even bother mentioning signing Sterling, he's too good If we have Marquee cap money why the hell shouldn't we be aiming high?

It's a good question. Clearly the right answer is both, and this was entirely possible, but that was another Agar masterstroke.
The value equation has to be who would we get who would be a step up from Houghton with the cash. Rovers have done some great recruitment but at hooker were arguably opportunistic in getting Lunt and really struggled before that. Personally, on balance I'd keep Houghton and get him doing more long kicking as I really think this an underused strength of his.

Who wouldn't sign him? the only team with 2 half decent hookers are wire and higham must be nearing retirement. wigan would rather him than logan tomkins I'm sure
