A very good call but unlikely atm with their injuries.

He turned us down in the off season.

Well that's funny because that's what BS said he's looking for - a back up half who's game he can improve through the season.

Whether Addy is average or not is subjective - but you need to get it through your head is that A: there is no money for an above average half, B: Even if there was and one was available I doubt he'd be coming here.

Well, that's the worry then isn't it. Unfortunately, we should have known this months ago in the off season. Both our halves would be back up at any other team. If we do bring in a half then they need to be a starting half, otherwise you may as well stick with craig hall as your back up half.

The club did know months ago hence Mr Carter's great effort to bring in Ryan Hampshire on loan and apparently Declan Patten from Warrington also before the start of the season.

His best position is 13 by a mile we wouldn't even be signing a half back. Ask any bradford fan they will say the same. Addy is not a half. Would be the wrong signing for me.

Sir kevin sinfield was a loose! But where did he play more than once and for his country.

To almost universal chagrin from the RL public, and with little impact.

So, is there a rumour of a new player?

Sorry I forgot that Addy is the new Kevin Sinfield ¬¬

I'm sure he is but that isn't the point. As has been pointed out by a number of posters we have tried and failed to attract any young and affordable half backs - it's a shame but it's true.

Craig Hall at back up half, now that's an idea.
He's the only one that's here and probably why he didn't go in the off season?

So no actual rumour then? Just a discussion of possible people on this forum?

Travis burns could be available going off what they are saying rematch tonight

He would walk into our team at the moment.

I honestly think team for team and player for player, every team has a better half back combination than ours.

Some teams even have better back up halves, than our first choice at the moment.

Watching tonight's game and thinking how slow or creative play was on Sunday has just highlighted as to how much work is still needed to be done at the club

I'm still not sure about our H/b. I thought Saints had a good partnership and back up and look at the performance of them. I think we should be looking at good solid stand off. Let's hope B S faith in our present half's will be rewarded.

We also need to give our new players some time to get up to speed and to find a way to bring out the best in each other.
The pressure is on from the start but, its going to take half a dozen games to see how good we are.

So is there a new player?

Maybe yes, maybe no, we know who we don't want but not sure who we do want. HTH.

Think any deal for a new player will have been scuppered by the recent fine.

Appearing as a trialist in Manlys pre-season game on sunday.
