Moment of reflection needed on here. Arguing over the merits of Isa or Hankinson. Thank you to Lenegan and Radlinski for this golden moment in our history.

The point is Hankinson and Isa are both behind Farrell and Greenwood in the 2nd row.
If one of those two are missing I'd prefer Hankinson over Isa, that's all.
For third choice both are capable under a capped salary bill.

Not sure what basis anybody could have for saying they’d play Hankinson over Isa in the backrow all on the back of a short spell at Salford on Easter Monday. It’s just a hunch pick with no basis or previous form to back it up.

You may as well say you’d prefer Escare at hooker over Powell even though he’s never played there just because it’s Powell.

I have nothing against us looking at Hankinson at second row by the way but at least give him and Isa a few games before giving a judgment.

What have Isa & Hankinson got to do with Edwards being a coward who reneges on a deal and IL yet again being found out announcing the signing of a non-existent contract?

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

Me too. He was very good in his spell at Salford and was a key part of our match winning try. He’s big enough and he’s quick. He’s also used to playing on the right.

I’d also leave Smithies in ahead of Isa but I’m conscious he’s still 18 and developing. Wouldn’t want to burn him out through playing too many games.

To be honest Rogues, I have absolutely no interest in anything he does. I’m glad he’s not coming to us and I don’t care two hoots where he ends up.
