| Nice lad, wish him luck, but I think HKR is a poor choice (though choices could have been few).
Got to agree with Halfdan. After the debacle of last winter he owes us very little.

| Hull KR is a club that can't sign or keep top class players but are attractive to mid-level players because they pay higher wages than Cas / Wakey / Widnes.

That's not really how professional sport works.
Quote: Ronniequin "Has he not spoken to Caro? HKA are an underperformance team despite the roster and with a succession of coaches, he must be mad.'"
Eh? Whereas we, of course, are at the peak of our powers.....
HKR are in Super League. London Broncos are not. If I were Kieran Dixon, it would be a very, very easy decision and I'm only surprised it's taken this long to become public.
Best of luck to one of the most exciting, watchable players we've ever had.

| Haven't Rovers recently signed two wingers from their more traditional recruiting ground?
Oh, and I don't think Dixon owes the Broncos anything. Hope he gets back to full fitness and impresses in SL.

Two points here
just onto our 3rd coach in 9 seasons so hardly a succession of coaches and you sound like gutterfax with the old HKA 2 English players signed this week. And we havent treated caro badly he just isn't up to standard much as I hoped he would succeed

I completely understand the deal about Rovers being in Super League, but the point I am making is that after a year out Dixon is an unknown quantity, we are also very familiar with his defensive limitations and lack of height in taking cross field bombs to the wing. Rovers are an ambitious club but the knowledgeable fans have very high expectations and I think Dixon will go there with a big reputation and a lot of pressure. A spell with Broncos to restore fitness and confidence would have been a better option for the longer term in my view. We were of course aware of the limitations of Caro prior to his signing. I thought then he might get crucified by the fans and I don't think I was wrong.

| I'm delighted the lad is on the verge of a return although as a former player ( abeilt at a much lower level) who suffered similar injuries, I'd prefer him to write the season off to concentrate on rehabilitation.
Now he is poised to leave, I cannot envisage him being able to give 100% for London. If you don't give 100% after an injury, you risk injury.
A season in the Championship would definetly benefit him. Good luck to him whatever he does.
London will continue to produce/develop talent for the sport.

We will never match the Aussies no matter what nothing to do with small town mindedness I just want to watch my team play with passion and give 100% whether there from Hull or Sydney it doesn't matter to me

London have the same number of imports that we do.
Anyway, Dixon.
Won't be on big money , he will only be a squad player next season.
Worth the gamble.

Or on the flipside gutters you have more people playing rugby league in London than the whole of the north of England so why all the imports surely you find 25 players in 7 million people but that's not how it works is it and you know that
