Houghton isn't even close to been a top hooker

Wouldnt get in at saints ( roby/lussick )
Wouldnt get in at Wigan ( Powell )
Wouldnt get in at wire ( clark/walker )
Wouldnt get in at catalan ( mcilorum )
Wouldnt get in at cas ( mcshane )
Wouldnt get in at rovers ( parcell/litten )
Wouldnt get in at Leeds ( dwyer/Leeming )

It's only until he finally leaves/retires we will realise how average little he brought

Tackling and the odd good kick that's it

Jamie Shaul isn't in the club's OOC list in the HDM. So ... the daily fail can't copy and paste or we've resigned him, or someone else signed him, or he's retiring.

Or what?

Just an alternative list (of all clubs) which shows Shaul out of contract, without the speculation.

Right. I posted that list in another thread. But as I said he isn't in the list that the Hull Daily Mail posted later on. So ...

3rd choice at Hull too, behind Balmforth who you have watched for 25 minutes right?

Unless we can sign better and a few above are not better than Houghton, both in attack and defence.

He gets another year, but should have pressure from Balmforth and Lovodua, shouldn't be playing 80 minutes.

Our best player by a mile against catalan was Lane or mau

They said Houghton 2 assists which was just laughable.. it was a bit of a brilliance by lane and a barnstorming run by satae

Great players like Lovodua, Carlos, mau, Lane get my respect cause they are our best performing players

Houghton passing a ball from dummy half and us scoring isn't out playing anyone

Did I say Houghton was out best player against Catalans?

"A great game" so probably

I can't wait until Lovodua go's to hooker or 3/4 years time when Houghton leaves/retires people would of realised how little Houghton brought to the attack

It's frustrating cause with a decent hooker who could attack makes a huge difference

Powell has not outperformed Houghton this season.
McIlorum is a bog standard defensive hooker, everything you deride Houghton for.
McShane is hopelessly out of form this season.
Litten left because he's not good enough to play in front of Houghton.

So your doubtful if Houghton is better than any of them

And you skipped the rest to obviously 100% agree about the others

Josh Hodgson wasn't "good enough" apparently we kept houghton instead what a decision that turned out eh

you trying to say Houghton is better than Hodgson ..... Wow

Your first mistake was letting Josh Hodgson go, who went on to have a very good career at a higher level. Mistake repeated by allowing Litten to move on, who from what i have seen has come on leaps and bounds at HKR culminating in his selection for England Knights yesterday. Hull FC supporters obviously see more of Danny Houghton than other RL fans and although he has been a good and loyal player over the past decade he is certainly a 'yesterday man'..
