If what we've heard is true re Olly Russell being offloaded I suspect the same fate might happen to Myles Lawford. So we need a competent replacement and Jack Sinfield comes with a good pedigree. His only problem is always being known as Sir Kev's lad and that brings. But moving to Wakefield might be beneficial and hopefully develop further under DP's coaching.
I'm prepared to give him a chance, as has been said we have got our recruitment spot on over the last 2 years.
Regarding Tanginoa is he quota exempt having played in Super League over 5 years, or didn't they bring that rule in ?
Tbh I'd forgotten all about Myles. He's had no luck while he's been here, but saying that, would he have made much difference in the halves when we needed backup? I'm not sure he would have, but again, he's young and will find a home if we did let him go with the number of teams wanting British players, same with Russell.
Coming from a perspective of Sinfield being the backup half next season to Trueman and Lino, he's already a better player than our back-ups now imo and definitely has a higher ceiling, so just from that perspective, it's probably a better signing than when I first heard it. As mentioned, maybe getting out from under his dad's shadow at Leeds will do him the world of good.
As Khlav mentioned, it's gonna be after next season when we decide what to do with Lino and we'll see how many games Trueman plays, then we can decide what to do with quota players & spaces.
As for Tanginoa, I don't think that rule came in because he's quota for Hull KR.
