The Raiders have a good developing hooker in Hinchcliffe.

he has shown potential this year and was a step above premier league in the past seasons.

Maybe they want to use them in tandem? Where does that leave Withers?

so who is he playing for next year?

Rumours I've heard are Melbourne, Newcastle and most likely, Canberra.

Was only ever used when Farah was injured and rarely was he even a reasonable replacement. That's not decrying his talent, he was never going to be a regular starter for FG with Robbie at the club.

Will be better off elsewhere.

Meeting place in aboriginal is Canberra.

Should come as a suprise to nobody. Closer to native Cooma and family and a better shot at first grade

Newcastle were never in the hunt. Reports were incorrect and probably had wires crossed with a Shaun Ferguson(who i dont know much about). But yes Melbourne/Bellamy did approach him along with a few other clubs.

Just to get the general opinion of you guys, most are waxing lyrical about this signing in our forum, I've never really seen him play.

Would you be happy with him as your starting rake if you didn't have Farah? And do you rate him better than Lincoln Withers?

Whenever Farah is out Flano starts at hooker for us and is generally very dependable and gives great service. He had a massive blunder against you guys 2 weeks ago, but apart from that he's usually very consistent, doesn't make many errors or give away penalties, and if it weren't for Farah, he'd be the starting hooker at the Tigers every week without a shadow of a doubt.

Hes much better than Withers, just as tough and gutsy which will will see him fit your team to a T.
Benefit added also is he's still young and still developing, room for lots more improvememnt as opposed to LW who imo has seen better days long ago.
He'll captain your team one day.
