Thing is what people forget about Chris Hill, is that he used to play centre and back row, hes a very agile forward. Also he played super league at 17 in a struggling Leigh side. The guys no replacement for Graham but would be a good signing for you guys, but would he come to you on a 1 year / 2 year contract, time will tell?

I hope saints don't sign him. I don't think he's going to make a top super league prop.

The silly thing is, we let emmitt go who was showing signs of being a good young prop and then we are after hill.

I just hope if we do sign him then he's on buttons.

Friday 20:00.

He's a far better player than Emmitt, quicker, better ball handling skills, equal to Emmitt on defence.

Disagree,Hill has far more potential than Emmitt.
Unfortunately I don't think we'll sign him,wish we would though.

What is with this love in for Emmit? He was never anything more than a borderline solid squad player with us and is nowhere near as good a prospect as people make out.

This Hill character is an unknown to most of us. He obviously has potential given there are rumoured to be several big clubs interested in him. A step up to full time training could bring the best out of him.

I just think emmitt was looking very good and had potential to be a good solid prop for us, much like the love in you had for eastmond really.

Not quite. Jake has moved onto playing in front of 6,000 at Castleford whilst Kyle will be playing in front of 80,000 and watched by 17 trillion viewers worldwide every other week.

I look at the rugby union crowds every week. I don't know where you get 80,000 from as bath don't get that.

The union crowds are only slightly bigger than we get at league.

Unless you refer to england rugby union?

That's the one.

It would really make me smile if League fans put their usual whinging about the national game aside this season and turned out in massive numbers at Wembley in the autumn! I'd definitely indulge in a little childish, petulant smile should that happen.

England don't play every other week and nothing to say Kyle will get picked for England.

So for now he'll prob be playing infront of lesser crowds than we will be playing in our brand new stadium.

A lot has changed in RU since Robinson changed codes. Kyle will be deemed too small to play wing/fullback for england.

I expect him to rip it up for bath, get selected on the england squad at first as a novelty but not be able to convert it into a regular starting berth, then end up on the international 7s tour.

There is a lot more money in Union! and with the grounds they have on TV they do look well supported, also their international season takes up a long period and it gets the media coverage we never get, what will happen if BBC Local Radio is cut even less coverage!
