Think we will have a plan, I hope so anyway, even losing out back up, back up hookers.

Problem is that Houghton plays 80 minutes, probably misses 5/6 games a season and is likey to play for the next 4 seasons at least, so think the choice to leave might not be Radfords rather Jez's, if so you can't blame him. Radford should ahev played him this year when Houghton was out though, if Hadley or washbrook got picked over me at hooker, I'd be looking to move on.

Could do with a 19 year old hooker who is happy to play mainly reserves, problem is after the shambles of COHA, i'm not sure we have one coming through.

When did he play hooker, A team?

I'd paly Kelly there if Houghton was out short term.

So outside backs potential, 4 from

Fonua
Swift
Faraimo
Dawson
Ratu
Connor
Griffin
Carlos

Cant see it personally. At least 2 of those won't be here next year

Shaul played hooker last season for the first team, one match . I'm convinced he did.
LOL where's that muppet Shelton ? I say that because I played Jamie at hooker all his youth at Skirlaugh.

Think Dawson will go and Griffin to the pack

I don't get why most people on here think Griffin will move to the pack when the one person who gets to choose where he plays never picks him there, even when we've had the opportunity to when Carlos and Connor have both been fit.

Both Radford and Griffin himself have mentioned him moving there this season.

He has due to play there one game this year, can't remember which, but late injuries meant he played in the backs.

Also back in talks with manu ( what ever his name is ) from parramatta. Apparently there getting rid now so a deal could be back on .

Bingo. MDJ to be released and Griff to the back row if we can get Fonua in.

I expect Ratu to be announced soon.

Manu M'au - good player.

It was a late night for our management team last night, plenty of Skype calls. Hope there is some positive news soon.
