He's gone to Cronulla

Over the Costa Del Preston Road? Bizarre.

Jeez. Every time I come on here its full of curlies spouting rubbish or having a pop..now another one has surfaced...monotonous and boring..hey, ho..I suppose it keeps them happy.

Sorry, couldn't resist. I'd have made the same joke about Hessle Foreshore had we been interested, so don't take it personally.



Hastings would be a good signing for super league.

Nothing taken personally Mr Faithful..I came on here today hoping for some clarification that we MIGHT actually sign a half back..and boy do we need one...but it all seems to be smoke and mirrors at the moment, rumour,rumour,rumour, and nothing concrete seems to be happening(or does it?)

Just a bit frustrating. As always I,ll believe things when I see them.

The Addy loss was massive as I think he'd have ended up playing there alongside McGuire despite what some say about him being a loose forward. Unfortunately, things like that can't be preempted. I guess they thought Marsh and Atkin would be a suitable short term replacement. My worry for rovers is the lack of decent forwards. As has been said, you can have the best halfbacks in the world but if the forwards get mullered each week it's going to make their job very hard.

A good pack can often make poor halfbacks look alright. It rarely happens the other way around. Marsh/Atkin and McGuire aren't the worst partnership in the world if you can find a couple of high quality forwards to give them a platform.

Edited for accuracy.

Interesting comment in league Express about our well documented search for a half back.

Maybe we should be looking at Matty Smith , who seems to have dropped down St Helens pecking order.



Maybe on a season loan. Given that I think Atkins is good enough to be our SH for a long time.

Sheens made an enquiry about Todd Carney according to HDM. Luckily (for Rovers) he wants to play in the NRL.

I thought we was very close to signing a Aussie half back I hope it is not Carney he is a big risk he on his day is class but after seeing him at cats and Salford looks likes his days have gone. Atkin looked alright at Leeds but still think we need another quality half back

NH stated 10 days ago we are close to signing an overseas half and Sheens says today we weren’t serious about Carney. Hastings?
