Tim Smith...he's out of favour at Wigan?

only on loan, he has loads of issues. But i suppose he'd do a job for us until we got someone permanent

Do a better job.

its an idea , most of our own players have issues.

Id have him no probs

We got rid of Dykes on 26 September. Can't imagine there were too many quality alternatives available at that point if any.

I would take him, not like we have much in the way of options is it.

Kath wont sign a top seven, that wouldnt be any good for leeds.

Well lets just carry on like this then shall we.....i actually want to see us do something this season.

Because that is the case.

making the playoffs is the best we can hope for. I thought we'd be in the middle group of teams, but the 5 game winning run had made me hope we could surprise everyone. Now i think just making the 8 and sorting the squad out is the best we can manage.

If i re call it correctly the booing was not for him but the choice of the MOTM? Thats sponsors for ya!

I share your frustration but how many top class 7s are there in SL? Deacon's too slow, Robinson's not good enough either, Monas looks completely wiped out, that's just a few. Even if we gave up on Crocker and used that cash for a transfer fee, there are so few decent SHs in SL that no sensible team would release them, ditto in the NRL at this stage of the season. I absolutely agree that our #1 priority for 2010 is a scrum half, in the same way it should have been for the last 18 years, but for some reason the club just don't recognise it.

Balls to 2010.....we need one now.

There's one problem: Kearney isn't a 'yes man' and therefore wouldn't be employable by Hull FC.

Is this the same Kearney who was booed by "the fathful", after receiving a MoM award?

If so, that Kearney probably won't come anywhere the KC, unless the SMC have a change of heart and we host a 4-nations game

That was in early May 2005 - before the great scenes at the semi, then the Cardiff final and all the celebrations that followed it. Kearney loved it here.

but he woulden't leave a job with the world champions to come and sort our mess out, so its a pointless debate.

Quite correct.

Well remembered. I remember that Salford game well also. Wasn't so much booing Kearney it was booing the decision when Shayne McMenemy was so clearly the best player on the pitch.

the club needs a chairperson and board that are passionate about the club not looking to just get their money back from their investment{even though they will in time}.A board that will get the correct players that will benefit the team and not just sign anyone rejected by other super league clubs. show some passion in the club and go out and if they have to buy a top quality number 7 as for me and many others chris thorman is not doing it{ too slow ,cant attack the line and his so called kicking as gone missing} We are also missing a {to turn a phrase} prop who will.get the team on the front foot to give the half backs some room to get our backs in to the game.
All we seem to do for the most of the game is 4 drives, a drop off then kick.

I wont read the 4 pages but kind of agree, at the moment owt is better than fool Agar who left Manu on.

I reckon Tank Gordon could do better.......

The most entertaining 9 consecutive losses I can remember.

Tony the Tank, would love him now!

Forget the Carvell fiasco. Forget the fact that the game especially in the UK has so few SH. We have the money to buy a specialst SH. Yet all we have signed is a winger who we have not used at all and two back row forwards who are not even here yet oh and a fat g1t who can't play anymore than 10 in every 80 who is classed as a project.

Now tell me the Carvell / Dykes fiasco led to us not being able to recognise our need for a SH
