At the rate MM is getting back too his best ide find it hard too think ov a better hooker replacement in the world in my very honest opinion......his defence alone gets the team buzzing....... he also seems too gee the lads up for quick plays( unlike powell)....... our players seem too see him as a leader

I am not saying he can't play 80 but don't think Wane spells him for the fun of it. I am guessing Wane thinks he is only effective in short spells but it'd be good to find out.

Two contrasting styles. It's a bit like cricket when you put on the spinners, get the other team used to that speed, then put on a quickie to try and upset them.

Sorry to those that don't get that analogy!

I think he means replacement as in a 2nd choice out there that can play up to the standard of MM? Maybe I am wrong however!

I did mean a starting hooker and hopefully( not that i want powell banned)MM can go and do an 80 min stint at headingley and prove all the doubters wrong

You are joking? Wane will make a substitution at around the 20 minutes mark every game. If he has a hooker on the bench the one who is on the pitch will most likely be the player to come off. Whoever it is.

Hull in the final have a coach smart enough to expect this to happen and will be ready.
