Seems fair, advice can be well-meant but wrong if this is the case these things happen.

He was far from mediocre regardless of whether you think he's an HB or not. I thought Hampshire along with Green and Kirmond was the three players who really made a difference in the last few weeks of the season. Not saying others didn't but these were the ones who stuck in my mind

Green gave us real grunt upfront.

Kirmond offered little in attack but in defence rallied time and time again.

Hampshire may have been out of position but he seemed to be the only one in our backline who seemed to want to play an attacking game, his try tally proves that.

For me, he's wasted on the wing. He's a decent FB but it's at HB where his future lays in my mind. Do I think he's a genius HB? Well no not yet but there's time. That said it's nonsense to say he must replace Brough immediately, thats so wrong as to be just daft, instant destruction of a team IMO. Those two are the incumbents and it's Hampshire job to keep the pressure on and take his chance when it comes and it will, Brough is ancient and Miller has started picking up injuries more regular, it will happen. He only needs to look at Kirmo or big Dave to see that it often comes late even for the best or better still Brough who didn't really settle at 7 until he joined us for the second time.

Tanginoa???

Obviously to add to this sentence, for me he was our best player in the later part of the season.

It's not obvious at all, Vastcap wrote a fairly long comment and got a one word reply, not to say that I don't agree about Tanginoa but still, people should try adding context before posting.

Though overall the pack played well in last 4 or 5 matches with a bit of luck we could have won 4 instead of 2. First time we did not miss Big Dave .Rocky was the guy who provided the of the cuff move eg the 60 yard kick and chase at H K R . These are what the fans like to see ,this is why MOST fans hope he signs.I am in the hope he signs

Re Hampshire, Green and Kirmond being the 3 players that kept us up? I sometimes wonder what people are watching!
