| Quote: UllFC "Tony Smith is top class and id have him at the club any day of the week. He was building a long term plan for Rovers until his surprise announcement, a young team with far better use of the salary cap than what we have right now. They have dropped off because it never works when a coach (or any manager) says they are working their notice.'"
Not afraid to drop underperforming big name players either.

| great Coach Peter Sharp and a real disciplinarian who was respected by the players. I think it was Peter Gentle who was driven out by the players and the 'coach elect' I think its fair to say that if that ever comes out what was said that night at Huddersfield after the game it will make for interesting reading.

| I'll give my views as an outsider on Brett Hodgson, then feel free to rubbish them.
It appears to me that he is very very good at building a club, putting strong structures in place with the right staff within those structures.
The pathway he has developed at Hull from the scholarship into College, Academy, Reserves, Rising Stars into the first team looks a genuine one and if I were a Hull youngster I would feel I had a real opportunity to advance there and be supported along the way.
Some of you guys will go to more junior Hull games than me but I do go to a fair few and every scholarship, academy and reserve game I have attended I have seen Brett Hodgson. You wouldn't see that with a lot of Super League coaches. He is across everything which has got to be a major positive.
However, I'm not convinced he is a great coach or a particularly good man manager of players from snippets I'm told.
In my opinion you would be in a far better position if Hodgson had come over in a Head of Rugby role and Andy Last had been retained purely to coach your first team with no other responsibilities.

Think thats a fair shout to be honest and have to say I agree about the Head of Rugby role for Hodgson as opposed to Head Coach

On what you've seen from the Hull Academy which players would you consider having the best chance of establishing themselves in the first team in the next year or so?
Thanks.
