Good idea.

If the impression that Agar is too pally with some of them is to believed it would make it difficult for him to enforce the rules.

I wonder what sort of performance measures are in place for the players

See this is why i try not to talk about measures/metrics/stats anymore!!

yes we do have one but i cannot tell you the exact details as it will break the confidentialty agreement.

IMO whether it is written down or not is irrelevent. It is Agars job to control discipline and if some players are going out getting drunk regularly and even smoking then it is his job to put a stop to it. I remember a story involving Gareth Raynor not long after Peter Sharp was appointed, Raynor was fined for being late for training after using the excuse of one of the bridges being up, Sharp's response was something along the lines of "well you knew there was a bridge between your house and the training ground so you should have set off earlier!". Somehow I can't see 'Rich' Agar taking the same approach.

I used to use that Bridges up excuse when i was late for work

Took them 6 months to figure out i lived the same side of river

All this stuff ought to be in the players contracts anyway but as no-one actually looks at their contract after they've signed it a short, one page code of conduct would help.

I don't see why it should be confidential between the club and the players. It would be the same for all of them and wouldn't contain any personal or financial information. Surely its basic, commonsense stuff and surely we, the supporters, are entitled to know what standards the club expects from its players.

If there is one it then has to be enforced consistently and fairly.

Given how pally Agar is with some fans, it makes it difficult for him to hold his head up!

The only 'code' we have in place is a Barcode and Agar thinks 'conduct' is prison ventilation.

I'll get my coat>>>>>

Best one I heard for being late "the cat has died " another one my goldfish passed away

Now you see why Buses ran late

i'll see your confidentiality and raise you "freedom of information"

Are you certain that some of the players smoke???? If that's correct it's terrible

I can think of one well known prop forward who does.

Is it true they smoke at training, surely Agar cannot condone this?? I'm not a Hull fan but I would be suprised if any other SL club allowed this. I am genuinely shocked.

FFS listen to you lot. what a load of drivel you spout. Do you not go out drinking on a sunday night before work on a monday.You support the club dont own it nor the players lives. Try reading up on the Human rights act. pathetic

Very ill thought-out remarks making it obvious you have little concept of professional sport. Sportsmen and women have an obligation to look after their bodies to a far greater extent than normal people because their job performance depends on it, they are rewarded for this (to varying degrees depending on the sport) in their wages. If you don't understand this then you don't understand much.

Also, I'm fairly positive that the human rights act does not mention anything about drinking on 'school-nights'.

Think you have a valid point but maybe they should refrain from having sex at least 2 weeks before a game as we know this can hamper performance..

The game hampers sexual performance?

Actually you raise a point, Plyers should be banned from having sex at times that can cause there partners to get pregnant and give birth during the season

How incosiderate is that

Paul King always looks sh*gged.

Thats the kind of attitude which is holding the club back. Maybe you would be better off supporting a pub team than a Super League club?

We pay good money to support the club and most of us are paid a lot less than the players are. If you are a professional sportsman being paid between £50,000 and £100,000 a year as most of our first team regulars are then you have to make certain sacrifices. Professional sportsmen are supposed to look after their bodies and while I'm not against anyone having a drink I dont turn up for work on a Monday morning hung over and unable to do my job properly and I think I'm entitled to expect the same from the players of the team I support.

Agreed

The entire concept of professional sport is beyond you, isn't it?

Is is the Human Rights act apparently!!
