rule as only come out into the papers because cooke as refused a 1 year deal with hull for a 2 year deal at halifax on more money with a 3rd year option.

Can't argue with the accuracy though.

could explain the york link then??

Obviously convincing very good players coming in to their peak to chase money under the mask of playing for your boyhood heroes. Then subsequently watching powerless as the career takes a steep nosedive under a coach who refuses to use his already proven talent, just to prove a point. Then send him training with an amatuer side on Bransholme while contemplating a move to the powerhouse of Rugby league that is the York City Knights, ironically to be Thorman's Halfback partner.

He doesn't regret leaving Hull though

I think that we can finally, hopefully, probably not though close a Paul Cooke thread for the last time.
