Hookers

Post by mol2 »

Hope they stay fit for the next few weeks as Polota-Nau is off to Australia on loan for the next 6 weeks.

Presumably this is an indication he won’t be with Tigers next season?

Based upon our chequered history, its safe not to presume anything when it comes to Tigers recruitment and retention......................anything can happen!

With TPN on loan to the Tah's, that leaves us Youngs, Kerr, McMillan, Stevens and young Mahoney(?), with Clare (welcome back!) confirmed for next year, hard to see him returning if Kerr steps up with all the others as injury cover.

IMO lets stick with the youngsters and get them well bloodied. TPN is a fine player but not a great one - IMO?

There is also a pretty decent hooker at Bristol who might be worth a look at ..... Harry something :smt006

Who is there because of the style of rugby they play which suits him down to the ground.
Pretty sure he signed a 3 year contract there at around £250k

Bananas decision in my opinion, we can't do anything with his wages now and with the table so tight we need every available body!

I'll assume that the tahs are picking up his wages and not us so perhaps we can use it for some injury dispensation scrum half or two.

Can't help to feel a tad disappointed to see this. Shouldn't an international hooker of some renown should be challenging for a starting spot in a team where the competing players are not (yet, in Kerr's case) of his supposed standing?

Didn't you see their scrum going backwards? Very good in loose though!
