Different types of players, would make a great partnership, which obviously won't happen, Sneyd has been great for us and without him we would be in the bottom two, he could be a great hull player for the next 7/8 years, you just have to enjoy Kelly for the next 18 months.

Back on topic, I'd say it's highly unlikely to happen reading his latest tweets.

Be a great signing for you and a bad move for us if it was to happen.

100% fit according to your coach

He also said campese would be back the week after he did his knee and Lunt would be fit every week for about six weeks so I'd take whatever Chester says about injured players with a pinch of salt

A better comparison would be Campese-Sneyd & Kelly-Pryce. In which case you guys obviously have the better pair. Problem is just keeping them on the field together.

It won't happen but would be a severe misplacement of resources if we did. We need quality second row and a hard big prop. Nothing wrong with our back line except maybe a centre.

We Don't, its a rumour

The same kid who left Shaul for dead as he breezed passed him. Even had time for a little dance after scoring.

You do realise Sneyd missed the first Derby?

It was also the only one where Kelly & Campese played together. Cause & effect?

I used that game as a example because that's the only game I've seen you play but looking at your results and near misses if you had Kelly in your team you would of won all them near misses

the thing is we can all play the if maybe should have,could have game, bottom line is what the results are

Hope this rumour is false. Dixon has much more potential at fb.

imo think it is, but you never know

Maybe sio is missing his wife and will go back to oz? dixon to wing, shaul to FB. Would free up a non fed/quota space for a forward

Heard us linked to Iain thornley, if true , hopefully the only back we sign.
We really need to bulk up our fringes.

Both Dixon an Shaul are gash on the wings and to small to add. So that's a nonstarter.

Absolutely agreed, Dixon is one of the most exiting players we have had at the club for years and will get better with game time.
Jamie Shaul is a good player no doubt but has his own shortcomings that come with inexperience, so It would not make any sense to me for the club to be touting him as our future fullback.
According to other posters on here he also has an attitude problem, which if true and we signed him would make a mockery of Chesters early season pledge to rid the club of such players .
Personally I don't believe there is any truth in the rumour, what the club will no doubt concentrate on will be strengthening the pack which has to be a priority for next season.
Speaking of priorities, I haven't been in the Harry Pool bar for several weeks so, I wonder if anyone else may know whether the club have fixed that double glazed window panel that looks out on to the pitch but had blown causing people to jostle about so they could see through the clearer parts of the windows.

The reason I ask is because some double glazing guys I know had offered to do the job at almost cost price but last time I heard from them they hadn't received an answer from the club, surely if the club can spend thousands on sending Mike Smith to Australia for replacements, then surely they can afford between four and five hundred pounds for a replacement window so that fans in there can watch the game clearly instead of through something similar to looking through a fog.

Him who let about 4 tries in at Newcastle then scores & still dances? He should work on his tackling technique before going on just dance in his bedroom.

The condensation problem. Don't think thats been replaced yet.....

What we need most is a wrestling coach. Dummy-halfs running amok because we have no markers / tacklers left on the floor occurs nearly every set. It's killed us game after game. If we controlled the rucks better we'd be in the top 8.
Aside from that we don't need big changes to the squad imo, just fit players & more size / quality in the back-row.

Can't believe this has made 5 pages. He's no better than Dixon or cockayne. Moved on.

Actually I think that is a very good point.

Usually the opposition have better go forward than us and most of the season we have blamed a shortage of props and our featherweight back row. In other words us simply not having the required physicality. That's a factor for sure but perhaps a bigger reason is teams just rolling on up the pitch unopposed due to us not competing effectively in the ruck...or in other words losing the wrestle.

The best example I can think of is Cas away. They never once needed to kick upfield on the last because they'd already gone the length of the field just by rolling on forward.

He I'd never a winger and shouldn't be played there. Stick with him at full back and he'll get better and better

Do you think Chester knows this?
He even said on Friday night he's made more mistakes playing others out of position post match, yet he was very confident of a win before the game.
