Lenegan needs to go to Taylor with a "what would it take to keep you" deal. He's an outstanding young prop forward, a definite international (I'd have him in this years 4N squad without doubt) and there's no reason he can't elevate himself to the standards of Graham, Morley and Peacock.

There's obviously some personal issues why he wants to move back to Hull, girlfriend homesick isn't a good enough one tbh, but from a playing point of view I think he would regret it massively. He's playing in a side capable of winning trophies, after one season he's got both major winners medals and a WCC appearance under his belt. Hull FC are a long,long way off that.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club. Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you. "Rugby League is a simple game played by simple people. Rugby Union is a complex game played by wankers." L.Daley 2005:



Quote: NickyKiss "Hull need to stick to youth production rather then trying to bring in quick fixes IMO. They have some classy juniors and if they're patient those lads will serve them better then bringing in the likes of Leon Pryce who is way past his best.

From our point of view to lose Taylor would be gutting and on last nights evidence you'd have to think the lads bonkers to even consider it! If they pull it off though what a great signing for them. He's exactly the type of player they need to push the club forward. Those types of players alongside their own juniors will form a very good side in time.'"


We have another 3 juniors that are very highly rated and will get the chance.I haven't got a problem with Pryce as he is the old head that we are crying out for...the only problem is Radford,the bloke is clueless.

Hull FC were a sorry sight. Hull FC is one of the big clubs in RL and should always be up there competing with the Wigan's, Leeds and Saints of this world. They spend a lot of money, spend up to the cap and yet are always so poor apart from the odd blip. Something seems to go disasterously wrong with the club at first team level.

I've been watching Wigan since 1982 and in all that time (apart from the first three years) they have always been like this. I do sometimes wonder that they spend too much time competing with & trying to get one over on their near neighbours that they get so blinkered in this and it affects them when it comes to the main competitions....I dunno, but they're never really a threat to the top five year after year.

They've never really been able to kick on when they've had a bit of success to be a sustained top 4 team. They won the Challenge Cup in 2005 and then reached the GF in 2006. Last year's CCF aside, since then they've never really looked like challenging for silverware. They spend up to the cap, have a decent fanbase and a number of good amateur teams, something is going wrong there.

There always a team you expect a tough match from, but last night was nothing short of woeful. I'm not surprised that a lot of fans are calling for Radford to be axed.

We should have kicked on from 2006, however our board decided to sack the coach who took us to a grand final because he got poor results during the worst injury crisis I can remember.
Since then all we've done is hire assistant coaches. I have no problem with that if they have served a good apprenticeship but both Agar and Radford haven't. Gentle got us 6th twice, a CC final appearance (and regardless of the result we still at least got there) and a play off victory in both years. I was disappointed when he got the sack as we look like we were slowly improving on the years under Agar. Radford has now took us so far back it's painful to see.
Think Pearson looked at Wane with yourselves and McDermott at Leeds and decided that's what he wanted. He obviously didn't realise Radders is nowhere near as good as either!

Well done on last night's win. Can't imagine your boys even had to put too much effort in to get it!
