Heard Hendo doesn't fancy him but DH wanted him kept. They wouldn't even let him gain experience at Skolars.

Maybe he likes curry?

I take it the club still dish those up in honour of Gus.

It might be more that yes he does have the potential but the coach isn't convinced that unless he bucks his ideas up that he'll make the most of that potential.

Brian Smith quote on web:

“As time goes on we hope we’re going to have another half to come in and work with that threesome,” he said.

“A younger guy we’ve got our eye on, we just haven’t got there yet.

“But I think each of the guys that we’ve brought in have got something to offer to our team."

Could be any younger guy of course, but .....

With the signing of Eliab, opportunities for Joe might be limited. But as with Oscar Thomas he is not going to be first choice wherever he goes, so he might as well stay here and fight for his place.
Also, with next years pack he might find playing half back a whole lot more comfortable

It might be the making of him, whilst it would be a shame to lose a home grown player with potential.
He may well benefit from moving out of his comfort zone and having to prove himself at Wakefield.
He has been at the club a long time and will be down the pecking order this season, by going to Wakey with a clean sheet he may well realise his potential.
I certainly would not blame him if he did make the move. Good luck to him.
