I know WTW are stacked with back-rowers but Pitts was mentioned as potentially going to Bulls so he does seem surplus to requirements at Hull FC. It also looks like Jamie Shaul has got the nod for full back at the KC in front McDonnell so he might be on the way out as well.

The signing of J.Pitts seems very logical when you understand how Agars mind functions.

I have also heard another one of our centre/wings will be leaving and a further two more second rowers
have been lined up to sign.

I'd be happy with Pitts but as implied above I'd like to see cover in the 3/4.
I guess it depends how well Kienhorst and Briscoe fit in.

Who let cat out of bag

Do we really need another back-rower? It's the one place we have plenty of options!

I've heard we're looking at a winger and a second rower over the hill at the same club.

Pitts was a back rower when he left us but wasn't he propping at Hull?

Think he's played there a few times for them but the general consensus of the Hull fans when it looked like he was joining Bradford was that he is a good second rower but nowhere near good, or big, enough to be a prop forward.

Maybe that was before they lost Carvell, only got 3 recognised props now in Scruton, Sidlow and Manukafusi.

Don't we have enough back rowers? Someone like Shaun Ainscough who can score tries outside would be good...

With Agars second row fetish it wouldn't surprise me to hear that we are also trying to get Dale Ferguson as well as Pitts.

Been away for two weeks, where does MC say that 1 or 2 players are to leave? And why so close to the start of the season? Why upset the balance of the team in letting our recognised kicker leave for Union so close to the start of the season? Seems a bit strange to me!

He said it in an interview on radio leeds. Smith has gone since but as yet nobody has arrived.

Sykes was our kicker, Smith covered when he was injured.

Cocky git!
