With Monaghan taking the first choice hooking role at warrington, i would have thought 1 of Micky Higham/Jon Clarke would be looking at a move. Wouldnt mind either in the number 9 shirt

Salary Cap may have some bearing on this though!

Both on the downgrade. IMO Rovers have potentially the best hooker in the country given an extended role there.

Indeed it may, thinking more a replacement 4 fisher though, and would also depend on the clinton deal or no deal

Please tell

Murrell?

Willing to let him prove me wrong, but his distribution is too slow to be a top class hooker imo.

How many times have you seen him play hooker?? He was exceptional at Leeds academy when played there. He has a very accurate passing game and would be a lot cleverer out of dummy half than any hooker at Rovers in recent years.

Against Quins and at FC last season, pretty ordinary in both games tbh. Much prefer him at 13, would be ideal if we bring in a top hooker to replace Fish in 2011.

But as I said, I'm willing to give Scotty a shot if Justin thinks it's best. hope he proves me wrong if given the chance!

Was outstanding in that game imo.

I thought we brought in Josh to develop into our first choice hooker, youth is the way.

The only doubts I have about Murrell playing hooker is his lack of pace, all his other attributes fit the role very well.

With Morgan bulking him up in recent seasons maybe losing a bit of weight could give Murrell that extra bit of sharpness needed around the ruck.
