No thanks.(only if Horne,Rankin & Miller are leaving)



How many running HB's do we need?



A HB with the ability to split open a defence, coupled with a good kicking game is what we need.

I genuinely think HTW is the man we are going to be pinning our hopes on. Good players of the type you describe are very rare. I think we will go with Rankin and Miller with Horne as back up until the end of next season, then the reigns go to the youngsters. I would like to sign a top class 7 for a couple of years for Wilson and Dean to learn from, but I don't think we will.

Some good rumours about at the moment, the ones that I have heard.



Taylor

Dobson

Green

Brierley

Leuluai

Taylor's Defo on, & Ryan Brierley is very much on the radar.

It would be intresting to see how Brierley would go in Superleague. A very good young championship scrumhalf with a excellent try scoring record. Worth a punt I suppose.

Sounds like Jamie Ellis!!

So was Jamie Ellis, so I hope the club has done a bit more research this time.



Age isn't that big a factor, Dobson was about 19 when he came over here and I would certainly sign Mark Sneyd given the chance.

Sounds similar to Rankin/Miller/Horne.



Take your pick .

Brierley is going well in the Championship but, as others have mentioned, so was Jamie Ellis and that didn't work out too well for us. Could be worth a try but definitely a gamble IMO. Would like to think that if he was coming to us that it is alongside another more experienced HB.

He can score trys ok. But his defence is worse than Crooks

Michael Dobson has a dodgy defence but I'd have him in my team any time. Defence is not what I look for in a HB.

Another young halfback isn't what we need.

We could always bulk him up and turn him into a second rower.

People seem to know who's not what we need at 7 so please can you tell us realistically who we should be looking to bring in ?
