If thats the case and he does come on loan, then Hall should just leave for the good of his career.

Yup, I would rather see Hall plying his trade somewhere else barring Rovers than stuck in the 21's. Hall would offer us hell of alot more than Mathers ever would and wouldn't cost us penalty after penalty!

We are down to our last backs.

Byrne out for the season, Raynor and Tony unlikely to be back for weeks

If any of the back 5 that played v Huddersfield get injured, as it stands we would have to play a forward there.

I don't understand why people are so violently against the principle of looking round for some cover in the backs when we are down to the last ones in the squad. Who on earth says that any player coming in on loan would automatically displace Hall? I'm not a fan of Mathers but would be pretty hacked off if the club weren't looking at some cover in the backs if we have some cash spare seeing that we have 3 senior backs with long-term injury. It's just common sense, surely.

Broughton would do for cover before Mathers for my liking!
Or why not promote someone from the 21's? James Green for example?

Like I said, I don't like Mathers either and don't know what Broughton's situation is.

The average age of our current backline is 22.6; I personally think we have enough inexperience with Briscoe and Hall - James Green would not be the answer. The gutting thing is that the absence of Tony and Raynor is exactly the scenario for which Byrne was brought in.

Exactly why the franchise system was brought in so that the youngsters get a chance to play when injury's kick in . No need to bring in Mather's there is no relegation so why not keep on giving the young kids a chance.
