His agent, old SMTM, will be happy no doubt

Will be a real shame if HKR don't get promoted to see a club legend going through the motions for 2 years in the Championship as KR stroll to a couple more first place finishes.

We'd have Hall outside him who is an attacking threat. One of my favourite centres in a Leeds shirt was Brad Godden. His winger was always top try scorer because he knew how to feed them - but you wouldn't say he had the x factor. Jimmy could be in this mould and I think Hall would prosper from him. For Moon's quality, he's not really a wingers centre.

Godden was a class centre - to compare the German to him is laughable.

Indeed. I'm a big fan of Jimmy, but Godden was a class apart. He made Cummins look international class, and bless Francis, I'm not sure he ever genuinely was.

Didn't realise I compared them. I said Jimmy could play in this mould - as in a centre who can draw in defenders and get the ball to his winger. Is that laughable?

I think we all put too much pressure on Jimmy K because we probably have the two best centres in the league at the minute (in quality if not form)

Jimmy is not as good as Moon or Watkins or Godden or Senior, but imo he is better than Toopi was and is a better centre than Lee Smith or Hardaker, so Im comfortable with him at starting centre

I think a lot will depend on Myler, if he shows he can organise and create then he will play with Moon (or Sutcliffe), if not he will play with Lilly

Yeah agree, he is no where near Godden's class. Keinhorst is good defensively but we definitely lose a fair bit of xfactor out wide when Moon is at SO.
Personally I'd keep Moon at SO. I'm not sure who's available in the NRL centre wise... but I'd be looking there for someone.
