Won't be missed.

Yep, I expected the club to be lumbered with him for another season, so this is welcome news. Surprised Fev want him, have they given up on building a SL capable squad?

Wow. Didn’t see that coming.

Obviously doesn’t fit the lardy mould we’re aiming for in the front row.

Joking aside, surprised Fev have come in for him.

Blessing in disguise that one given we handed him a two year deal not too long ago.

Never particularly broke any pots with us, debatable whether he has at other clubs either. Maybe Fev is the answer

How have we managed to convince Fev to take him! Bonkers we gave him a 2 year deal.

Madness to sign him in the first place, madness to give him a 2 year deal.
What on earth are Fev thinking??

More than happy hes gone. Would have wanted him off the books at the end of the season so the fact we can get rid early is great. Hopefully the start of the clear out

Wowser

I would have been unsurprised to see him go to Widnes. But Featherstone??? They must be seeing something we are not.

Fantastic. Can’t recall him ever having a good game in his two spells. Rather have a kid in the squad. Weird one for Fev though!

Exactly this

Was speaking to a Fax mate last night, we could only assume, given recent weather, they needed a a water carrier who could carry a greater capacity

Missed more tackles than matches, one can only assume Brian Mac has got sun stroke

Bit of a scapegoat tbh. We didn't improve for him being out.

What's the betting that he'll have a stormer the next time we play Fev? Assuming they don't get promoted of course

I disagree.
He cost us 3rd place in League last year with his stupid penalty at Widnes when we was winning 9-8 with seconds left. Meaning we had to go away to Batley instead of Whitehaven at home in playoffs.

Maybe it's was more discipline. His penalty against Widnes was hugely costly, I don't think we recovered from that defeat.

Again Newcastle game, although the game was over by the time he came on, after so long out you'd have thought he had a point to prove. Instead he picked an argument with the player playing the ball while the dummy half ran passed him to score.

Hopefully this is a sign of the management expecting certain standards at the club and if not adhered to, you're shown the door.

Jacob Gannon in on loan till end of season from Warrington, Morgan Gannons brother.

Jacob Gannon in on loan from Warrington.

Looks like he’s been here, there and everywhere on loan in the last year.

No idea what he’s like, but a young, hungry prop is fine by me.

Fair enough but we were dire against Batley without him in the team which suggests he isn't markedly worse than our other props. His second spell always tailed off but compared to what we've seen this season he wasn't that bad.

I think it was probably more to do with his salary and/or contract length. Wood specifically mentioned John Kear's (poor) recruitment choices at the forum so this might be a follow on from that. If it frees up some funds to better spend elsewhere then so be it.

Can anyone tell me a game where they genuinely thought Fleming had a good game? Not and ‘alright game’ not an ‘outstanding’ game, but just a good game?

I don’t think he’s made a tackle bust, a good offload, or won a ruck. I think Lauaki was a better prop.

No, but McDermott has coached him before so must be confident enough in having him around a side challenging for promotion.

Will be interesting if he improves!

Well, he'll obviously look better for Fev has they'll completely dominate most games. He could give loads of penalties away but it won't affect the result. Whereas with us those little things are hugely costly.

Has he? Didn’t think he had to be fair. It will be interesting but I can’t see it. He’ll be shipped off at the end of the year.
