| Out of contract at the end of the year.
Must be on a decent wage and is getting on a bit.
Was pretty impressed with him last season, works hard for the team, but we didnt use his pace enough, hopfully this will improve this year.
However if we keep Hall (and I think he will stay, if he contiunues his form and keeps his place in the team), we have him and yeaman in the centres, Briscoe on the wing, we have 2/3 very good wingers coming through in Tuffour, Lyne and J Briscoe as back up.
Does Calderwood get another contract or do we look to fill this spot with one of the youngsters?
Lyne IMO will be ready for SL by next season IMO, in fact I wouldn't be suprised to see him play this year.
Personally I think Calderwood will have be outstanding in the next few months in earn a new contract with the talent that we have coming through.

| i like calderwoods workrate and his never give up attitude. For me if he is on a big wage i maybe could see him as being and expensive luxury and possibly look to ship him out. Its a fine line though as i am a fan of his but think the money could be used better elsewhere

I doubt his agent will be willing to wait that long

| Not sure he will be on a massive wage - as has been said maybe a 1 year deal tbd in a couple of months. The young wingers are waiting in the wings but could be a couple of years before they are regular first team material.

| Calderwood has been excellent for us since the moment he signed. Throughout the crap we endured last year he was one of the few who looked consistently interested. Added to that, he is one of the fastest wingers in SL.
I cannot, for the life of me, see a reason why any Hull fan would want to get rid of him. It baffles me.

Thats the problem with agents and the system, you have to offer people deals early, sometimes too early or agents start touting their client about.
Not sure how the RFL or anyone in sport could stop it.
I would like to see Hull sign up Houghton and Hall early though.

I maybe being very critical here, but I dont think he has been excellent I think he has worked hard a done a good job, but if he is on a high wage (and I suspect he is), then he may be worth a sacrifice, with younger cheaper replacements ready.
Unless they are amazing wingers such as Vaikona i dont see the point in spending a hugh ammount on a winger.
As i have siad he works hard, but apart from chasing kicks doesnt offer enough going in attack to jusitfy a big contract. Maybe if we use him more this season and he gets more open space he will prove me wrong.

Agreed. Too early to be discussing new deals until we see how players are performing. However Hall would be an exception for me due to his age, I'd get him signed asap.

| Still has bags of pace, enthusiasm for the game and is an excellent cover tackler,
the only worry for me is his tries have dried up since he left Leeds,
keep an experienced winger on decent wages and not use his abilities to the full or let him go and give one of the youngsters a chance?
over to R.A....

| Calders has only had one game so far so his try scoring opportunities have been limited and last season the winger was lucky to see the ball unless they came in for a run.

I don't suppose he'll be on a massive wage. I suspect he'll be one of the middle-earning players in the squad and good value for it, IMO.

On what basis do you suspect he's being paid 'a huge amount'. I've seen nothing to indicate that that's the case.

He's an excellent finisher. If he gets the service, he'll score a hatful. As hullbg as said, last season he was on a hiding to nothing and this season he's played one game.
