It wouldn't surprise me if this one was true. I was talking with his dad (who works in the same building as me) last season and he was hoping that Widnes would make an offer for him. I got the impression (although it wasn't explicitly stated) that he wasn't enjoying his time a Bradford. Of course this was before his little run of form at the start of this season.

just because you have a chairman with abit of money doesn't mean you can sign up half of superleague its getting boring now. listening to hull fans thinking every player would love to play for them just because gareth ellis is following the money, and your fans have believed the line of "well he just wanted to come here he believes in what we are trying to aim for and we are going to pay him peanuts for the pleasure".

In fairness, how do you think the Hull FC fans felt when we signed McNamara, Vaikona and Radford?

We don't have to like it; we just have to accept that without a rich owner then what went round has come round.

Kn0b!

What has the rich owner got to do with looking at OOC players?

FWIW this rumour has been going around for a couple of months in the RL papers as well, not just this forum.

Along with dozens of others...where would we be without rumours? Yawn..ZZzzzzz

To be fair you are only asking for our opinion on a potential signing who you correctly say is ooc? Seems a reasonable request to me

Shame that it was met with the usual vitriol on here by supposed fans of the club. There really are a lot of s that follow the Bulls.

FWIW, Crookes can go for me. He has been around for ages and has either been too rubbish or too injured to have any impact on the team. A few decent games this season has seemingly blinkered our "knowledgable" support.

Just another Dave Halley and if Pryce and Kear were available he would not get a look in. Would not be a loss.

Welcome back ME. Koppy has been around for ages, and no doubt you have said, FWIW, that he could go. good call. So lets look at your preferences"It’s been difficult on occasions when we’ve lost and I’ve been stuck out on the wing."[/i he of course does have the option of doing what TV or LV or even Gareth Raynor more recently would do, which is a few drives up the middle himself, for the sake of his own team mates. It is a team game. Crookes, 1000% more effort in attack and defence. Kear yes you have a point, but comparing his and Crookes STANDARDISED stats to the point they were injured, the only stat Kear was significantly better than Crookes was offloads, the rest were much of a muchness. so why one or the other, given they are no different, why not both?

Oops forgot to say the one stat that Crookes was significantly better at than Kear is tries scored 5 against 1 (thats tries in SL rounds not friendlies btw). any stat more important for a winger? who are you replacing Crookes with?

Had do you know Mick Potter isn't telling Pryce not to get too heavily involved with carting the ball up.

Let me rephrase that for you. Do I know that Potter is telling Pryce to stay out on the wing and do nothing to help his team mates. No I don't have the hotline to Potters thoughts, but what do you think Potter is telling him? You're a 6' 5" 18 stone wing with a bit of pace, best to stay out of trouble on the wing than damage your complexion with a few drives up the middle?

I think Potter must have told him to hide behind the billboards, 19th in the Bulls league for carries is pathetic for a bloke of that size & ability.

I've not noticed him shirking and he missed the first few games. He's run it in hard, made his tackles and taken what chances have come his way. The problem with Pryce is we haven't got the ball wide quick enough or often enough. I don't see what he's done wrong tbf.

Pryce is the new Platt. Once certain people don't like him, they are blind to whatever he does, even if he made 200 carries, 20km and did 500 tackles and hit -ups while scoring a triple hat-trick, they would never give him any credit.

I haven't been his biggest fan, to say the least, but not unfairly, and always retain an open mind and eyes. Both have been pretty impressed with Pryce in the current incarnation, he's had some decent games, especially when he played as emergency full-back, and I can't see he's done anything to justify the continued bile. People should give credit where it's due, and in his case, it is.
