I'm not happy one bit with our options at hooker, really my only doubt about the squad. As for lack of experience at half back last season, I couldn't disagree more.

I'm not happy with the hooker options either but there is a chance that they step up and make a good fist of it. I'm hoping Robinson sees this as his chance to grab the position and progress.
Our half backs last year had experience but one of them was a maverick who played to his own tune and the other wasn't strong enough to deal with the other and wilted in his shadow.
This year I think we have potential leadership where last year we had none whatsoever. This was our biggest failing, no one was there when the going got tough, hopefully that will be rectified this year.

That is what I was trying to say & I agree 100% Burns could turn a game on his own but I feel he disrupted the team & Josh Hogson tried to get the team going with little support, If the new halfs play as they can the young lads at hooker wont be isolated as Josh was this year.
