[quote="Dave K.":3i81k8yh]I don't get the different foot but, how many RL clubs have one right and one left footed kicker? Get the other points though. Charles is the same age as Farimond, so would be a pointless signing, lCharles would look good in Wogans side for the odd game, but neither are ready to play regularly especially in Hulls current side[/quote:3i81k8yh] I'm sure very few clubs have one left footer and one right footer but its a way of giving the side an edge. Inevitably if you have two right footers or two left footers, one of the two plays on a side where half of the field is essentially blocked off to the long kick. A big part of Wigan's recent success was putting Bevan French in the halves and whilst he's clearly a great player in lots of ways, him having a right foot kicking game gave us a different option which was so valuable when teams put pressure on Harry Smith. The thinking behind Farrimond would be that he could share the role of the second halfback with Charles and perhaps could benefit both. Plus he's a running threat which Hull are lacking atm. Also, Cust was bloody awful when he played on the right for Wigan. His best spell was on the left in early 2022 when Tommy Leuluai was still in the side. Was it the right decision to move Jake Trueman on given the situation Hull are in now?

That's what they will be telling you!

[quote="RockNRolla":3m5jp4iu]Abdull has been advised to retire due to the severity of his knee problem.[/quote:3m5jp4iu] If that’s true it’s hardly the embarrassment for the club people are making out. It was always a risk given his injury record but let’s not forget it didn’t seem to stop us chasing other halfback targets it’s not like we put all our eggs in that basket, we announced Abdul way before we went for Lam and Sailor etc. It’s just desperately unlucky for Jordan, but if that’s the case you’d imagine they might be insurance and stuff that also might come into play. It does put us in an awkward situation though having to wait on what might or might not happen with Salfords finances and a player that might not fancy the move anyway dictating if we start the season a playmaker down. I’m sure the Cust signing was likely made with an eye on the Abdul situation also.

[quote="DSJ1983"]If that’s true it’s hardly the embarrassment for the club people are making out. Exactly. As usual people quickly jump to conclusions.

Would be very surprised if Sneyd comes back. He left for 2 main reasons 1. To be near his family which Leigh are. 2. 3 year contract I think he will go to Leigh as Beaumont will match whatever Hull offer just to stick 2 fingers up to us. Also dont like players going back plus snyed getting on now so would be a big risk. Other thing Syned and Sezer very similar players. Remember Leeds with Sezer & Austin they were an awfull pairing because they both wanted to organise the team and were both pretty slow. We should wait for other options

Are Salford in warm weather training? If so Sneyd isn't with them
