Hull FC have signed him and as a Hull fan I'd like to have Trinity fans views on him. I understand he plays hooker or half back and while probably not starting he'll add depth to our squad next season.

My question is basically is he any good?

Cheers.

I think he WILL be good but there is some development yet.
A bit like when you got Miller. Good but expectations at Hull were too big too soon.

I think you will have to see quite a few injuries in front of him to get a game.

There are always high expectations at Hull every season. I really don't see Smith making your squad any better

He will be better than Dwyer, so already improves the squad

Crazy time of year - if you are half decent and you are with a club likely to go down, your agent will be texting you all day long with leads and potential offers - when your main job is still to keep focussed on the day job.

Imagine blokes like Whitbread - probably already got an agreement in principle or a pre contract somewhere like Warrington. Gets injured every other week so the fans think he is shirking. Who knows. Thankless task.

very talented player with plenty of improvement in him to come, if the coach is focused on improving him and giving him a chance hel do OK. Downside he may just be short of a yard for top level, time will tell

He's was a bit error prone when in the team. Fitted in well really. Best of luck to the lad.

He rarely had the chance in his favoured position so, we never got to see the best of him.
I think he's a much better player than we saw at Trinity but, he's not on his own in that respect.
Maybe, like young Crowther, his face didn't quite fit.

Yet again Trinity lose a British player who would be a real asset in the Championship and the likes of Lino get a 3 year contract no doubt on bigger money I wouldn’t pay him in washers
I just don’t know what the hell is happening to this club

What about Gale, one decent game.
Many thought that he would save us but, not even close.
At least Lino was busting his nuts last week

Ultimately, you have to ask, how many players have improved through the season, under Applegarth, how many ?

He may turn out to be a top quality SL coach but, this was too soon and given the squad that we started with, he was completely hung out to dry.

Since last week, being all but condemned to relegation, it's hard not to be (very) angry, which is an understatement.

As paying customers, we have been massively short changed and as a club, to lose 14/15 games on the bounce before changing direction, we've had the proverbial extracted from us, big time.

Surely that depends on the contract each player signed and if it covered relegation. The obvious good ones would be daft to sign a combined contract and those players who want away are the only ones who can walk without our permission.
