Finn has always been like that so what - do you think if Finn was blessed with pace he would have speant most of his career in the Championship.

Be happy we have such a smart player who makes other players look better than they are.

What makes me smile is Eastern says Finny is too slow, but is quite happy for us to sign Jamie Ellis from Hull KR.

Why?

Re: Sam Hopkins : Fri Oct 13, 2017 4:38 pm  

In the 6 or so years I have been a member I wouldnt say I have mentioned transfer rumours any more than the next person to be honest.

At the end of the day this is a forum where people are allowed to give their opinion, without been abusive, maybe only some opunions count as being valid.

The constant bickering between fellow supporters, some more particular than others, has become quite tiresome.

I wouldn't take offence bud, it seems more like playful banter rather than attacks at you.

Well dear ! in the last two weeks you've wished for a replacement for some fans favourite Liam Finn and according to your local fish shop you've named two props we are chasing! Now who else has named names more than you ?

Re: Sam Hopkins : Fri Oct 13, 2017 5:19 pm  

Wrong Her In Doors.

I have merely mentioned a replacement for Sam Williams who has gone home. Finny will need replacing at some point, as at 34 he cant go on forever.

It is great that we have 2 up and coming halves, but a lot seem to be building their hopes on them which to me is a risk, given they havent yet played a game for us at this level.

Yes, I heard the prop mentioned but I am not alone. We started the 2017 season with 6 recognised props. We now only have 4.

It is hardly wanting every single player is it, it is merely replacing the departured players.

There was a thread not too long ago about how the squad can be improved. That wasnt me that started that thread

Re: Sam Hopkins : Fri Oct 13, 2017 5:24 pm  

But it is you that names names ! Twice in the last two weeks they are just rumours you just like any other fan have to wait and see whos coming in.

It’s some of the names you are putting forward as well as the sheer number that led to my comment. Lee Mossop and Drinkwater for example are not going to add anything if we want to stay as a top 8 side
