Credit where due, thought Leeds did really well last night given first 13 picked themselves and short turnaround from Sunday.
In the last game and half think Golding has looked sharper on attack than in past, as others have pointed out plenty of work to do with his defence.
Bit of food for thought, the 12 in front of him played almost whole game until sutcliffe's injury got better of him and despite him starting injured, those 12 were perhaps most athletic and strong in defence a group as has played all year.
Moon and Sutcliffe in halves means you don't need to play hide the half.
Appreciate other limitations and not suggesting is the answer. However, I think moon is a better player than many halves mentioned on these threads that we may want to get.
Hull play Carlos, no.3 at stand off, he strikes me as very similar to Moon, although I reckon moon is a better RL player. At end of next year McGuire will retire, I think moon will be one of our halves by 2018 if not playing there next season with McGuire.
If we can't get a quality half in for next year and as others have said it won't be easy, I could see us going with Sutcliffe at FB, Jimmy k at 4 , moon and McGuire in halves, burrow reserve hooker, lilley reserve half.
Time will tell. Most of the range of Aussie halves In SL are either injury prone or nutty as a fruitcake or both.
A player with top class kicking range would be ideal but not from the limping, Binge drinking club.
Will uncle gary release the moths from the wallet of doom?
