Was it Kear that signed Danny Lima? Him or Reilly for the "worst signing" award

Marsden says that he's coming on loan for the season, so that must be so :wink: Another hudds fan confirmed this today.


ive heard they're happy to release him. However, if they allow him to come to us on loan for another season that'd suit both camps. Only thing that would bother me is them recalling him if he was playing out of his skin or they were struggling for numbers. that could leave us in a bit of a mess

Losing Wilkes & Snitch after the way they have played this year is a loss and does seem like bad news, but if you are honest and look at your first choice pack would they both have been in it - assuming everyone is fit,

mine would be Tronc - Newton - Stosic
Morrison - Ferguson
JD.
Bench - Moore (Korki if retained) Leo-Latu.

so in my mind neither would be first choice,

if we had tried to keep one it would have been snitch and its disappointing that hes left again, but i unlike others dont know all the inns and outs of his contract.

you're a forward light on that bench and snitch would have been on it for me.
that said hudds shipped him out presumably because he wasn't performing to the required level so who's to say he would be as good next year?

The other factors to consider are injuries, suspensions, lack of form etc. I bet your 6 plus 4 don't play together as stated in more than 10 matches and there lies the risk of relying too much on quality over quantity - we will still need good quality 'back up' which Snitch, Wilkes etc would have provided. We need to bring in squad players who will be able to do the job in the first team and not be too reliant upon the youngsters.

Maybe i am one light on the bench - but if so why pay more money to have someone like snitch as a bench player, when people are saying hes an 80min engine room workhorse,

is this worrying - i must admit it shocked me ...

Top Metre Maker
Matt Blaymire, outside back 2479
Steve Snitch, back row 2337
Oliver Wilkes, back row 2210

Most Carries
Matt Blaymire, outside back 379
Steve Snitch, back row 346
Oliver Wilkes, back row 305

suppose this back up the engine room loss......

I think wether you start or come on from the bench that has no relevence to your value to the team, its not as if we are playing in the park and the subs are lads we have dragged out of the tap hole, chippy or bookies. I know its a cliche but it really is a 17 man game these days and the bench can really change a game with its impact.

That said though, I take your point about Snitch coming off the bench - he doesnt have the impact desired he is more of a grafter as you say so him starting would have been my ideal line up. For what its worth, here it is:

8 Tronc
9 Newton
10 Stosic
11 Morrison
12 Moore
13 Ferguson

S Korkidas
S Obst
S Demetriou
S New Prop to replace Wilkes
