Be a great signing, played a massive part on 16/17, injuries took its toll on him last few season. Really glad he is finishing on a good season.

What a great few years he has had with our club and how Wembley meant even more to him, Danny H, Jamie Shaul etc than it did to the rest of the squads, if it meant so much to the the imports etc then for all the local boys made good it was simple awesome. He never stopped talking about it for months afterwards. He had a tough journey from Wigan to us with a year on loan at Salford, as a rather petulant Wigan made him play his last year with the Red Devils even though he had tried to get released after 2 years of his contract. All the while with his Dad saying all year, he'll be back at FC next season never fear and thankfully he got home eventually. That picture of him at Wembley holding up the 'What you gonna sing now Hull KR' placard beaming from ear to ear, will live forever with me.

He cared for the fan base too (as he was one of them) and when I launched the two books in support of both Kirk and Danny's Testimonial, who was first to turn up on the night and who stayed all night talking to the fans? He's been carrying a foot injury all season, but has had a brilliant final hurrah! As Mrs B so rightly says he has been an absolute Warrior through some really difficult times. Great that he's staying at the Club, he's obviously impressed Smithy with his love of it. But thanks for some great memories Tag' your one of the 16/17 conquering Hero's who will be remembered forever by a whole generation of FC fans.

Quite surprised by his decision to retire as I thought he was ready to go round one more time but hey ho . Led from the front many a times when needed , Best of luck Tag .

He had some fantastic seasons in the mid 10s for both us and Wigan and fully deserved his England call up.

But a couple of poor seasons stops him from being an all time legend in my book. In 2019-2021 we needed the experienced players like him to lift the team and they failed.

This hear has been better and id have liked him to go round 1 more time but I understand his reasons.

Unfair IMHO; as others have mentioned, he pretty much carried our pack after Watts’ departure, and paid the price in injuries as a result, meaning he seemed fundamentally broken for some time.

At the beginning of this season I believed it should be his last purely for that reason, although he has managed to put it back together and as a result exit from playing on a comparative high, with many of us saying he deserves another year.

The fact he doesn’t want to do that suggests that he knows it’s time, and I’m happy for Scott Taylor that it ends with him clearly contributing at SL level, rather than at the end of an injury-ravaged spell.

His last game against Leeds. I expect him to leave it all out there and monster them. If his body holds up of course.
