just hope we can find a big mobile second row although wouldn't mind trying Griffin there in a similar role to Watkins at Salford.Strong, good footwork and a bit of pace

Posters have gone from 3 months of fretting about connor leaving to now fretting about a routine contract clause.
What if Clifford has a major injury
What if he has mental breakdown
What if ?
We just sit back sign up and enjoy the ride..

Where has the time gone?

When was the last time we had a genuine 7 with both a decent running and kicking game?

Who is flapping about the clause, I can't see anyone, a Rovers fan mentioned it and there was a brief discussion about it?

Could Sutcliffe not play second row and then Griffin, Wynne or Scott at left centre?

I'm not so sure that Sutcliffe has the size to be a regular second row. He's played there for Leeds and has been ineffective. Centre is his best position.

I'm going to get a pile on here particularly from a certain poster but if we can't create space on the cap for a new second row, why not give Griffin a chance? fully fit confidence restored under a new coach give him a chance.

Right, I'm off logging off before I get horsewhipped

You was flapping about the Clifford signing, to the point of saying the club should have other plans in place if it fell through plus you did say about “ the clause” which doesn’t exist. All Aussies have a “compassionate grounds” clause.

Re: Jake Clifford Confirmed : Fri Oct 28, 2022 5:07 pm  

I was slightly concerned about Clifford signing for which seemed like a gamble from the club (if you listened to media), but it's has paid off this time.

However I wasn't once concerned about the clause, unless you can show me otherwise on this thread, I don't belive the this rumoured clause, but certainly wasn't concerned.

So no flapping about the clause on this thread is there?
