Where that would leave Mason Lino if it happened I don't know.Lino divides opinion,and although he can win MOTM in some games he can be very poor in others,IMO.
Another player who we are strongly linked with and who gives me more cause for concern is Matty Storton.I have watched nearly all the KR matches and he usually comes off the Bench,for what seems quite short periods,and doesn't get that much involved,from what I can see.He will of course get my full backing if he's signed up,as does any player.
Though I’ve only watched a few KR games Storton is a player I thought showed up well and one who I’m looking forward to seeing if he’s announced.
Scott is having a pretty decent game today for Hull too in the second row. If he’s coming we might have a decent right second row there.
As for Russell I can’t say much different to others here. Not seen very much the little I’ve seen him play but I’ll trust the club if he’s signed. If there’s any option to look at a Marquee halfback though then it’s one position that could make a big difference.
