Yes most at Leeds currently regard him as 3rd choice full back behind Myler and Hardaker.

Long may that continue and if he can keep up the form he showed yesterday then I hope we can sign him permanently.

Realise that could mean Connor/Hoy/Trueman and Walker for 3 positions but we will have injuries and loss of form so it keeps players on their toes.

Can’t have too many good players for me.

I don't mind overloaded a but in those positions, it's when you have 3 high paid wingers including too quota players that's an issue.

if we sign walker and hoy and we also have trueman and connor,who plays where?.scrum half is the interesting position.non of these 4 are natural number 7s.apart from maybe trueman.

There’s a local boy, just waiting to come home, that’s the pass sales master stroke, like Watts Tag, and Albert, it’s Mikeys natural progression

Blimey I know with this heatwave people are melting but that would lead to a meltdown of unseen proportion in East Hull and be almost apocalyptic.

Wouldn’t want him , think he’s overrated and not a team player . Can’t remember what else he did yesterday apart from his tries and his defence isn’t that great . Show poney in my eyes , not the player we’d need to get us around the pitch .

I'd 200% use it on a leader, model professional type, with experience. I feel we're in a transition period, phasing out the last of Radfords trusted lieutenants. But we're short of leaders time for the next leadership group for me it'd involve Sao and Connor and be great if we signed an Elijah Taylor type who leads by example.

I'd seen Taylor linked with Wakey or a return home. He's a qualified pilot so if he did sign, we could save some money on trips to France!

I think Taylor is too old, but understand where you're coming from. A Luke Yates style player would be perfect for us

He might not be here to become a leader, if rumours are to be believed.

He's very good in the opponents 10 and that's prrtty much it. For the other 90 metres of the pitch he really doesn't seem to do a lot.
Still more effective than any of our halves have been this year like.
