Ok

But…..I remember Offia once getting ten tries in a game, and he really didn’t do much else either, we will agree to disagree on this one buddy, but I’d love him here, and I suspect a fair percentage of super league and beyond have eyes on this mercurial talent.

Got to agree with Windy here although that’s no surprise.

Yeah he scored a hat trick against our (poor) defence but what has he done recently when they have been struggling? Not a lot from what I can make out although I don’t follow their games closely.

Plus he can’t tackle. I’ve been saying for a while now that I would attack his side constantly because he is a liability in defence. Not good enough for a top scrum half.

Have to disagree WW. He's a special talent. Just turned 21 and has a lot to learn but can produce moments of sheer class.

It would be great to see him play for the club he supports.

I agree with both Windy and davey41

Got some trick plays but real liability in defence. Think Hull will have the best young English halfback in the city next year.

We picked Wynne over him, and I think long term that will be proven correct.

https://youtu.be/1fkudGa5Q5o Craig Harrison (Trueman, Walker and Sutcliffes agent) talking about deals involving us. He's a bit of an ego manic but it's a pretty interesting watch. Walker is ours to keep, but we have to activate a clause pretty quick by the sounds of it. Something in the Sutcliffe deal, but would be next season. Reading between the lines we've got potential options on Simm and Longstaff too.

Simm would be the priority for me .Just need to offload Griffin
Decent backline with pace McIntosh,Wynne,Simm and Swift with Carlos and Mitch to fit in whenever

The actual reply was to fosdyke regarding not having a natural seven, Trueman Jake & apparently Hoy fall into the off half category, if we’re not keeping Gale, Trueman&Lewis would be a balanced halfback pairing, all hypothetical of course as the youngster has signed a long contract.

Think Griffin will be here next season

I'm hopeful moving Mau, Reynolds, Bowden, JJ, Gale, Shaul on should give us enough cap space to get them all in
