| Quote The Biffs Back="The Biffs Back"I'd take Jake Connor on a freebie transfer for 2022
He is such a naturally gifted and talented player but also one who has sadly not consistently hit the heights that he is capable of.
He has stated that he wants to be a regular starting 6 but has never had a good long run in that role at Hull FC.
IMO full back is his best position at present but he has also played internationally in the centre position
He's a bit of a maverick and also a marmite type of character, But so was Garry Schofield
If we could get his head sorted out and also a settled position to play in then there's one hell of a player there.'"
I’d pay a smallish fee whilst he’s in his last year personally and get him here this season.

I doubt we would have enough cap space.Plus Pearson i think has gone on record saying he would never deal with Hetherington again. He cant do anything about it once Connor is off contract.

| He clearly has ability, but he's too rocks and diamonds for me.
He doesn't hold a candle to the great standoffs of the SL era, including our own great Danny Mags. Plus, I'm sure we'd have to pay him far more than we ever paid any of the goldens!

Absolutely 100% this.
We have no cover in the centres and yes i haven't forgotten about L.Sutcliffe. Lets not forget the guy essentially ditched us for Cas and came back with his tails between his legs when that collapsed.
Also FB/SO/SH - have little cover and if one of Lui/Walker/Myler or Gale are injured, we're short. McClelland hasn't shown anything of what was expected of him and clearly isn't Super League standard.
Connor would fit in at FB/C/SO and arguably SH or LF.
I don't care if he's a Richardhead. So are Tomkins and Hardaker and both have been pretty successful.

Connor would be a good signing especially on a cut down price last year of contract but as i said earlier i doubt we would have enough space.I also said i think he would work well with Gale.I disagree about centre cover Suttcliffe played well there last season and i fully understand his reasons for possibly leaving for Cas.We also have Broadbent who many who have watched the Academy feel Broadbent just needs to be given his chance.I would love to see Connor at Leeds but i think we will have to wait next season to have a chance providing he doesn't extend his current Hull deal.I would think if he hasn't extended his contract by May there is a good chance he's not going to.

| I thought Sutcliffe had a decent season for us last year. Then I happened to watch the 2015 season highlights DVD. Sutcliffe was WAY better back then - faster, and seemingly more skillful. I was shocked by some of the things he was doing - no wonder Brian Mac wanted to try him out over Sinfield for some of the time.
I understand the club don't want to add Sutcliffe to the long list of players we've let go too early or have gone on to better things. But come on. He's not developed in any significant way since 2015. It may have been a blessing in disguise if he'd gone to Cas, even if Powell seems to do well with ex-Leeds players.

Sutcliffe was tipped to be Sinfield’s replacement. I feel that put far too much pressure on the situation as the boots to fill were very big. I think he has been very professional the last few years as he’s been asked to play numerous places and not nailed down a position. I think if he puts a few kilos on he would be great 13, he’s got good hands, can kick, is good in defence and isn’t scared for the big carries, Sean O’Loughlin esque. That also solves the problems for more forwards in rotation. He just needs to be told that’s his position now nail it.

| He can tackle but for me he isn't a good tackler,certainly when you compare him to someone like prior.i sympathise with him because he's been moved around from pillor to post but I can't help thinking that if he was that good a player he'd of cemented a place in the team by now.

| I would prefer not to retain L Suttcliffe, s his best position, and he's been solid there both last season and in the 2017 grand final run. But we'v got more talented, younger and most likely cheaper options coming through. For me, the timings ideal, Suttcliffe and Hurrell play out there contracts this year with us, giving Newman the time needed so we dont have to play him until he's 100% and give Broadbent, A Suttcliffe, Hall a further year of development.
Thank Koni, Liam, Lui and L Briscoe for there efforts after next season and use there cap on a top quality 6 and a new wing or big prop, for arguments sake..Conner and Johhson as theyv been mentioned or maybe Tom Davies whos also very good
2022
Walker
Johnson / Davies
Newman
Broadbent
Handley
Conner
Gale
Fb Cover - Myler
Wing Cover - T Briscoe / Tindall
Cover - A Suttcliffe / Hall
Halfs Cover - McCllellend (if resigned) / Myler
Thats a very exciting, skillful, fast, young...All English backline, with good Quality cover, that, without knowing the numbers, id imagine, is perfectly doable with the cap we'd save on Hurrell, Suttcliffe and Lui and L Briscoe. Leaves us with plenty of quota spots to work on the pack where needed aswel.
