| Well good luck to him. Not really a surprise the announcement was coming. As others have pointed out the big clubs are pretty settled. HKR may not be such a bad choice though they seem to be rebuilding yet again. Dixon is a wing and also wasn't fullback his preferred position originally. He brings flexibility to a club that doesn't have an out and out full back, he'll get far more game time than at say Leeds and KR should be on at least the fringes of the top 8.

| Interesting to see the KR has either lapsed into M62 mentality already or he is not really that sure where Hull is, apparently he is moving his family from one side of the country to the other, I would suggest London Hull is end to end ish not side to side.
ah well will look forward to him playing against us in the super 8 ' s part of next season.

You've not quite got the gist of the new system have you?

Yes I have.
After 23 rounds the bottom four clubs in Super League and top four Championship clubs have their own end of season event – called The Qualifiers and played over 7 rounds – from which the top three secure Super League status for 2016. Those teams that finish the Qualifiers in fourth and fifth spot meet in a one-off match to decide who becomes the lucky 12th for the following season’s Super League campaign. Rovers & Broncos could easily be in that middle 8, meet each other in the qualifiers, and their Super League positions reversed in the 4 team P&R.

| Bottom line is that Dixon cannot tackle, and the London coach and many current and future London players will know that.
Expect that if London plays Hull KR in the middle 8 playoffs in 2015, the London attack will be rolling down Dixon's wing.

Speed, step, deceptively strong.
He's not perfect but don't do him a dis-service. Will be a success at KR I'm sure

simpsons/017.jpg Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

| Hope he has more luck at HKR than Will Sharp did at Hull,

| He's an outstanding attacking talent. He has much more than mere foot speed; he reads play quickly, can improvise and converts a very high proportion of his line breaks into tries.
His relatively poor defensive record is partly a factor of playing in a struggling team and having a procession of ineffective centres inside him.
Good luck to him.

Agreed, my lasting memory of him will be the excellent hat trick he scored against Bradford at Wycombe. The intercept and length of the field try was worth the admission alone. A decent coach will be able to improve his defence - look how Sarginson's defence has improved at Wigan. Good luck Kieran, hope to have you back in a London shirt at some point in the future.

Rubbish. I have seen his feeble attempts to feign tackles, where he just runs to and bounces off the attacker. The boy cannot tackle. End of story.

Do you know your ar$e from your elbow?
I rather used to like your posts but of late you have become a bore. Go start your own forum and give us a rest.
Dixon may not be the greatest defender, but neither was Offiah. But what Doug Laughton did was give Offiah a good centre and second row to look after him and do the defensive shift, thus keeping Offiah fresh to rip the living .... Out of the opposition defence.
Trouble is London has not had a decent centre or second row to support Dixon. I'd sooner see Dixon scoring the sort of tries he does than a beef cake winger who can only tackle due to volume and bulk.
But I am sure you will have some pathetic retort in spiffing good English old chap.
I will miss see Dixon in a London shirt, a bigger loss than Clubb, LMS, Sharp and Sargison put together. I for one hope he kicks on and then sticks it in your pipe and force you to smoke it!
Now crawl off and stop trolling.
