Genuine question. Do you really think Handforth is up to a defensive stint that a hooker has to put in every game?

Absolutely not. Genuine answer. Would be a backward step IMO, leave things as they are and replace penky with someone of equal or better calibre, if we have the money as Powell suggests we have then use it. Penky would not have been cheap all this time.

Whats the deal with Ben Fisher? How long is he at Catalans for?

Not for 80 minutes, thats why i suggested spelling him. Maybe the club will look for an out and out quality Hooker as there must be money available now we have lost penky.

Thought he was a free agent at the end of the season!

Always been a quality 9 but maybe a little old now. Personally i would like Ellis but he wouldnt be cheap.

I think the worse possible route we could go down for a hooker is dual-registration one. We need someone who will be here a few years..
Fisher would be nice and I can also see the attraction of Ellis.
Although Tommy Lee from Huddersfield wouldn't be a bad signing.
