As an outsider looking in I'd say that Houghton is an Fc legend, it's what he's done for Fc and not on the international scene that should define his Fc legend status. Hes absolute gash nowadays obviously but you'll always remember his efforts in black n white.

And to use a quota spot when we need a centre, hooker and backrower more, unless Whitehead rumour is true.
It’s not a position I’d class as priority however it is one we can improve on. I think Walker is a steady player however that’s as far as it stretches. Having that ball playing FB creates so many more questions for opposition defences. With Trueman and Abdull in the halves I’d think we’d have a good balance across the three, throw in a new hooker along with Borouh and I’d be happy with that.

Sadly I think he’d have much better suitors then Hull but if they did manage to pull it off he’d be way better then anyone we could field at fullback, 6 and centre too. He’s a potential superstar at SL level we need match winners regardless of position. Trueman/Abdull/Charles as the 7 alongside someone like Sailor at 6 would actually be exciting.

I'd be all for it, if we can still sign a quality centre, hooker and backrower.
Sailor can cover 6 as well, which could be useful with Trueman and Abdul
