Maybe he could but I hope there don't. Leave him at num 6 . for me Cunningham deserves a chance

The number 9 role for me is a bit of a concern.
Houghton is adequate, Cunningham has not impressed me when I have seen him. We have lost our best 9 in Azza .

Alternatively before slating Cunningham for not being good enough we could give him a chance and reserve our decision until he's played a few games?

After watching the match on FCLIVE I can now understand the concern about Cunningham. Correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't see him playing hooker. Played more like a second rower unless I got him mixed up with somebody else. If it was him he got through a lot of tackling. In the second half a dark haired lad seemed to be playing there. Couldn't make out his number because the quality of the video is so poor. Can't believe the poor quality is. I hope it's going to be better in the future. Compare that to the RFL highlights of the England academy games which is HD quality! Even on my own camera it's miles better than that.

The kid was wearing 26 but Downs played in the first game. I think it was Josh Wood.
