| Fil:Whilst I am delighted we are bringing a quality player such as Smoothy in, I have to feel for Liam Hood as IMO he is in the form of his life and thoroughly deserves at least one more year on his contract. How many tries has he either scored or set-up so far this year.???...quite a few, I dare say. Of course that would mean that we would have 4 hookers vying for a first team spot and Doyle and Smith realistically would struggle to get in.  Smith is still very young and still has a lot to learn. Learning behind hood and Smoothy wouldn't do him any harm. Would he be getting game time now if Doyle was fit? he has performed well so fair play to him now he's had a chance.

With Atoni signing for Cas, I’d go for Owen Trout from Leigh to bolster the front row. He’s got size, youth, brings loads of energy and wouldn’t take up a quota spot. I’m not saying we’d get him but he’s a Wakefield lad and fan. In his short career to date he’s been at Cas and Leeds as a junior, then Huddersfield and now Leigh so he’s obviously not worried about moving from one club to the next.
I thought he was at Wakefield as a junior, when his brother was with us. He played at Stanley Rangers, same as his brother, but I don't remember him joining our Academy tbh. I remember him playing for England Academy against the Aussies when at Leeds, when England won 2-0. Came through Leeds academy I believe. Yeah, as I said, I remember him playing for England Academy against the Aussies while a Leeds junior. I seem to remember quite a bit of hype about him when he was going through their Academy at that time, but he only lasted a year in their senior set-up before moving to Hudds, might have been down to the lack of chances he was getting. I also think he made his SL debut against Trinity for Leeds.

He'd be a good shout and seems to be coming into his prime, it also leaves that space open to look for someone that suits us from the NRL. But hasn't Trout still got another year on his contract for Leigh? He signed for 3 years for the 2024 season, so that takes us till the end of 2026 season. Not saying we couldn't move for him, but we'd have to pay a fee. For some reason, this disappeared, which was my reply when Avenger suggested him.
