This guy has got bags of talent but would appear to be a fringe player at Saints this year and probably next year too. On the Quins board, we have been discussing who we could replace Orr with and it was mentioned that we could (supposition, not rumour) take this guy on a 1 year loan to give him game time.
Just wondering what your thoughts on this would be?

I wouldn't sniff at the chance to be honest.

Build up his biscuit bones, and let him get used to super league proper, while allowing us to properly phase out between Long and KC.

Deal, Noel

It might be the best way to see if he really has what it takes

Not for me. Good enough to be playing in the Saints side IMO.

alas, lat time I looked the guy that matters is called Potter. Seriously, if the pies start sniffing around (or anyone else local for that matter) you may well end up losing him. At Quins he will slip under the radar as Mr Potter puts it and you would get a better player back.
Still, play him on the wing on Friday by all means Wells and/or Sharp will run rings around him
Note to self: stop posting potential sig material!

exactly....he isn't getting first grade game time. 12 months in the south would give long his swansong next year and help the young man get up to speed in SL. He's your player and I doubt he would sign for anyone else, but 1 year with Big Mac and playing in a team that are greater then the sum of their parts (at the moment) would do him no harm.....only good. IMO that is.
Go on....he can gcadge a lift back with us on Friday night if you want
