If he's not good enough yet, he should be given a loan to prepare him to potentially play week in week out. If he's not deemed good enough he should be let go. If he's going to be used in rotation, he should stay patient. Simple.

.... And it's a shame. Without a doubt he has better abilities than some we could all name ( and is younger ).
I am still optimistic that Hauraki can make a decent second rower, but I'm also sure Pitts could have been developed into something the equal of Huaraki.......and thus freed up a valuable quota spot to boot.

.... And even if you're right G1 is it really that important to you to be proven right ? Personally I couldn't be bothered researching what you've done here.....

Each to their own I guess

Im not saying its anybodys fault. I wouldnt blame Pitts if he turns out to be not good enough. But players have been and are given chances in the first team in the 2nd row. A young player has shown himself to be better, and a centre has proven himself better. These are the facts of life for a professional sportsman. If Pitts wants to play first team, he needs to prove himself good enough for first team.

How many times has the lad played prop?

Was the lad signed as a prop? He hasn't been developed the way the club said he would be. That's the only issue, not sure why you're looking for something else.

I think its pretty clear why he, along with any other player in a similar position, wont be going to Hull www.superleaguefans.com/hull-fc/ ... igate.html It seems Mr Pearson is intent on burning his bridges with Leeds, which is a shame because the co-operation shown before between the clubs looked to benefit both.

Genuine question, was he signed as a prop? I thought he had always been a second-row.
In fairness, Delaney was signed as a centre, he is now seen as second-row because he is better there, is that bad development by the club?

Who doubts Big Mac after last season?

You tell me. Nothing in the reports I linked to above from his signing say that he was signed to exclusively play a particular position.
I'm not looking for anything other than for you to subtantiate your claims that the club made him promises that have been broken. Can you do that?

How did the club say he would be developed and when did they say this?

Methinks you take life too seriously
