Does anybody know the latest on Talanoa?

Gwilym questioned Radford on RH on the return of Kelly, Bowden and Green but no mention on Talanoa.

With Sporting Chance I believe with no date set on return

Yes that is in line with what I have heard as well.

I hope he returns, but if I am honest I don't expect to see him in a Hull shirt again.

That's very sad if true, whatever his problem is I hope he makes a full recovery.

I wonder why the club hasn't just told the truth that he's receiving treatment.

Perhaps Fetuli wishes to keep it private or as private as you can be as a professional sportsman.

I wonder why people are discussing/speculating on his personal problems on this forum.

Everything said here is absolutely correct. Other clubs have success and build on it,we seem to go the other way.I feel sorry for Taylor,he's doing the work of two props,be burnt out before long. Last night Cas were getting three men in the tackle and slowing the game down,why don't we do the same,they seemed so smooth with everything they did and we looked disjointed and Cas also had a hooker who played like a hooker .Danny has been a good club hooker and a brilliant tackler but he lacks the creativity of other top hookers. Our right side was shocking last night and an astute coach like Powell soon exploited it.We have to get over winning the challenge cup twice and start living in the present,things aren't good and I can't see them getting any better.

This must be a cardboard cutout then....

I take your point but the club doesn't have to disclose the exact nature of his problem but is receiving treatment for it. Covering it up by saying he is injured only leads to speculation that something sinister is going on.

As I say I wish him well and hope he recovers and plays for us again.

It was really noticeable last night that we struggled to manage the speed of the ruck on both sides whereas cas did pretty much what they wanted

We don't know what's going on in the background. Unless talanoa authorises it the club can't divulge anything about the health of an employee no more than any employer can.

Maybe there is disciplinary action going on or something else we don't need to know

Have to feel sorry for taylor,great performance from him,connor and shaul both good,but paea,mini,miloudi,very poor.Watts outstanding for cas,could tell by his passion and effort how much he wanted to stick it up you,a huge loss him leaving.
Good time to play wigan after the world club challenge and a good chance to break the 13 match losing run.As a matter of interest what is the longest s/l run of losses ?
