| Just something else...I was ripped by the same 1 or 2 for saying Dodds looks likely to take up an option to stay another season!
Well I can tell you he is.
DODDS HAS AN EXTENSION!

| Quote ="rubber duckie"So you agree. Andrew Johns played hooked at international level.
Thanks'"
As if that demonstrates anything, he was the greatest halfback (arguably) in the history of the game and was selected a few times at hooker due to the presence of senior players in the squad . You really are hard of understanding sometimes.
Or are you claiming Johns was really a specialist hooker?
That is like saying Ratchford is a hooker because he once played in that position. Should we bring back Chris Bridge for the role?

That really is a joke if true as the club are offloading players injured or recovering from injury due to expense even if they have been at the club for years.
How minutes did Dodds play this year?

| No I never said that.
I just said if we're short of hookers, why can't Dwyer get a game?
Any way Mark pal. You have no worries. Dwyer is staying. He is just dropped for being a bit cheeky apparently.

I'm not the person to answer that Mark.
However he's staying and before he got that freaky injury he was arguably our best prop.
All looks good for next year.
Cox looks doomed here now.

Are you suggesting Wheeler should have been given a new contract.
It's unfortunate when rugby players get injuries bit sometimes that has to be taken into consideration when better options are available.

I wasn't referring to Wheeler who was on a short term contract but there are other long standing players being/ been quietly shuffled out of the door.
It is a business but players should be shown the same commitment they have shown to the club.

| If we build a team upon sentiment Mark, I doubt very much we'd be competing for trophys but rather playing for survival or worse still promotion.

It is not sentiment at all. Just making sure a player is fully fit before releasing them under a duty of care.

| Well it isn't Lunt he has decided to stay with Hull KR as he feels he owes the club promotion.
Fair play to him, he had offers.

This seems to be a re-hash of Nosey Parker's League Express comments. From what I recall he said that the player had refused to sign a contract with Saints and then surmised that he would sign with us because we were after him last year. I suppose Currie will need cover for the start of next year, but Wilde, Julien and Livett would find it difficult to break into the BR after that. Wouldn't a new winger be a better option ? (if we can find one).

| Wire had an interest in Andre Sav when he was about to be a free agent, but he played us about to get an improved deal at Saints.
Is he worth a 6 figure salary plus a signing on fee and agent costs?
I cannot see us in for him after that.
If we do move, I would imagine it'll be towards the end of next season when he maybe out of contract again. It's no big loss if he gets signed up elsewhere in the mean time...we are pretty good in the back row.
