Have been very impressed with him, looks a good bet for young player of the year if he keeps this sort of form up

yep me too, he seems to score everytime he plays.
i didnt think he would be ready for SL yet but like Raleigh and Kirmond before we seem to be getting a habit of making lower league players look very comfortable in SL.

is it the players themselves or our coaching?

Head & Shoulders above everyone else today was Lunt.
He is a tremendous prospect.

Exactly. Only Lunt, Cudjoe and maybe Korkidas who can hold their heads up high after that today. How Hemingway i still at the club i'll never know. Gets bumped off tackles all the time, never creates anything or takes the line on. He was the worst player on the pitch today. Aspinwall's not up to much lately either.

Iagree abbout hemingway, having been given his chance to shine today he was outshone by rochdale's 6. perhaps he needs another visit to Batley

Us Town fans told you when you signed him that you were getting a very good player in Shaun Lunt.

You couldn't do us a favour and send us a couple of big forwards, could you?

Judging by some of the above comments we could lend you a standoff

I think he could be a very good player for us in the future as well

I rate lunt loads and in my eyes he should be in the 17 every week

Have you noticed all the trys he scores, seem to be from 5 yds out and straight over defence line via dummy pass. All his trys seem to have a trademark about them, I'm sure all SL coaches will pick up on it.

Excellent signing tho for Giants.

Lunt, Moore, Faiumu, how many hookers are we going to play each week?

Drop Moore, he has been sloppy in recent weeks.

You would if you knew you'd be leaving our state of the art facilities for St Helens.

I'm surprised he is not crying when out on the field.

Nothing unusual about a hooker burrowing over from dummy half, except that we've not really had anyone adept at it since Darren Turner.

I thought he had a poor game (along with many others) at Warrington but I thought he played well in Edinburgh. I expect he will be back in and back to his best against Salford.

Lunt and Moore have been playing at hooker and Faiumu has been playing at 13.

IMO Faiumu has been going really well at 13 since returning to the squad from injury

Do you not think that part of that is tiredness as he is a busy hooker and Brown plays him for a lot of minutes every game.

In that case who would your back 3 be from Faiumu, Raleigh, Wild, Kirmond, Lolesi and Finnigan.

5 if you count interchanges and Raleigh is injured so you've answered your own question

Perhaps, but he has been throwing scrappy passes out from minute one recently

Really I am just playing devils advocate, Faiumu is, in my opinion a better option than either Lunt or Moore - his passes are crisper, his go forward is better (at the moment) and so he should get the bulk of the game time I think.

Am I right in thinking Lunt has scored in each match he has played in? Certainly seems like he has...definately a rising star of the game anyway.

As has been said, if Faiumu is playing at 13, where then for Wild? At 13 he is superb, utterly his best position

all in all, we have a great back row, and great centres, and 3 very good hookers

A little bird told me he's hoping to be back for the Salford game

Cunningham's been doing it at Stains for years!!! they not picked up on that yet!!

I must be missing something cos the games I watch Faiumu has not broke one tackle, has slowed the ball down when passed along the line, he dummys outside and the inside and the chance is gone.

He has wicked side step but seems to step too early for me meaning all he achieves is he stops his own momentum.

Might just be me missing something but would take Moore every time over faiumu at hooker and we have much better 13's at the club.

Then again it's easy to be critical when sat in the stands and is a differen't ball game when out on the park.

I think you must be missing something, maybe you are watching the wrong player



Go and watch the highlights of recent weeks, we are put on the backfoot by sloppy passing by moore, and the front foot by quick hands from the ruck by Faiumu.

Will politely agree to disagree on this one Code 13, Moore for Hooker everytime for me (must of been doing something right to make the England squad!!)

Back 3 now Kirmond is out would be Raleigh, Wild and Finnigan at Loose with Mossop coming off the bench
