Anyone else think top quality ones are like gold dust? Although it's stating the bleeding obvious that we need one, potentially we're up against Saints (as Long has been rumoured to be leaving for ages), Bradford, possibly Wigan, and Warrington for any potential candidates. Myler (and maybe McNally) apart there are precious few young British prospects emerging which makes it a bunfight for the NRL cast-offs/pension-seekers.

Even if the club has an epiphany and realises we need one, I reckon our chances aren't great.

why not pay a transfer fee then? they stand to lose a shed load of cash if this clubs decline continues. Wave £200k at most SL clubs and they'd take it in this recession, there's only us and about 2 other clubs making a profit for starters.

Funny I got shot down in flames at Edinburgh for daring to suggest the very same thing, it has been painfully obvious we need one but looking around the globe there certainly don't seem to be many available, money or not!

Who is worth £200k plus a salary of the current scrum halves in SL?

Burrows

Those are my thoughts exactly, we must have a few bob so why dont we get some cash on the table. Might as well have a go!

we've alreday gor one in berro. i know hes ''INJURED'' but whens he's fit we can use him. and have lee and houghton at 9

Only one i'd think is Burrow, him and Horne together would be great a lot of speed around the play of the ball, i'm sure they could try and coach it out of him but to start he'd be ok

mcnally signed for huddersfield and is on loan at whitehaven so dont see him playing for another SL team soon

It's certainly a worry, Mrs B.

Unfortunately we face major competition for a big name should one be available.

Agreed. Kath should make Gary an offer he can't refuse.

Saints have lots of options at SH thank you very much


Eastmond,Wheeler,Matty Smith and Johnny Lomax



Give youth a chance and you'll reap the rewards later

Burrow would not go to Hull though

Dream On

See, I don't like those kind of images. You should have given a warning to people before they read it.

depends how persuasive kath is with gary

How was it when Rovers lost Webster to injury they had him out the door and snatched Dobson from under our noses within the space of a few days? Are we just uniquely unlucky or poor in the recruitment department?

Burrow

I'd also take Danny Brough back right at this moment in time, and I still feel we should have got Dobson when we had the chance.

2 words, brett finch! i know hes a stand off but think he`ll be good scrum half cause of him being an organiser. why oh why did we get rid of anthoney thackray? that kid had real potential, such a pity, whos to say he couldnt of stepped up to the mark now?

Poor

To be quite honest after last nights performance we need a decent off half back as well. Got to leave horney at full back.

Hull FC and Cas to name two.

If I thought Rob Burrow was the prize, I'd make Gary an offer.

Like he'd go for rump steak when he has prime sirloin at home

A bit harsh. I'm 17 years younger at least.

Leeds don't seem to be in any financial strife. What makes you think they'd release their international Scrum Half midway through the season?

Brough is better than Thorman but shouldn't be a long term solution for us.
