And you know this because........

Key point for me is the bit in bold.'"
Totally agree. The one thing we really can't afford is to let Tansey off with any future misbehaviour. Hopefully it won't be an issue, but if there is any further disciplinary problems from him, it's essential we get rid.

No, I am Richard Wright.
Only joking, but I do have a close family contact at the club.

| Quote: WormInHand "This is the bit I don't get - [ihas[/i Agar completely changed his tune, despite 3 seasons of this and being adamant that 3 props is best at fan's forums etc?
If Agar is bending under the force of pressure, why haven't we seen more of Washy at 13 - or seen Whiting tried there - when the going was tough and we were screaming for another pivot?
This is a massive u-turn for Agar and I hope it's happening and we see Westerman at 13. But the fact that the Hull FC article describes him as a "loose forward, come stand off" and with the 'paper' version of the Mail stating "A loose forward who has on occasions played stand-off, where Westerman fits into Agar's plans is yet unknown, with Hull already boasting Fitzgibbon and Richard Horne in his two positions" I do wonder.
We're all expecting the signing of a "back-up half", perhaps Westerman is earmarked [ias[/i the new half with Horney becoming the back-up.
Unlikely, I know, but nothing would surprise me with Hull, and this would allow Agar to stick to his "3 prop" guns.'"
Although Agar's direct quote is "Joe is one of, if not, the most talented and naturally gifted young forwards in the British game”and the FC website article says: "The relationship with Fitzgibbon could also prove a fruitful one for Hull, with arguably the games most talented young No. 13 learning from one of the all time greats", so hopefully he'll be at LF. I personally think if Agar intends to play him at 13 they should make a big deal out of it and talk about our change of formation to try and deliver more points. Passholders who are wavering might be convinced to renew with a statement of intent at least.

It's possible, but every year it's getting more difficult to secure British players as quotas drop and the better quality British players are in short supply. If we'd decided we wanted the 20 year old Westerman at the end of next season, and he started well next year, we'd be in a LMS situation again, where he basically ratcheted up his salary demands on a weekly basis until he eventually signed for Saints. This way we take the hit up front but get him before a bidding war starts and when his stock is relatively low compared to his long term potential, therefore probably for a lower salary than he would command on the open market next year.
