crooks is a great talent and to let him leave, whilst spouting about developing your own players is a disgrace

IF true then Pearson is as much to blame for allowing it to happen, he (Pearson) vowed it would never happen again after the Luke Briscoe scandal!!!!!!

The fact he took the opportunity to destroy Logan last night said this must be true

How is getting rid of players like Crooks consistent with the Club Hull ethos?

He's only sort-of from Hull, son of Lee but brought up in Cas, and that is far too far away for this team of Hullards Radford is building!

dont know where all these rumours of crooks leaving are from ?, imo the kids being mucked about and isnt best pleased, but leaving nah

Its all about the posts, those top posters crave it

Last night proved a point to me.

Those proclaiming Pryce is a good signing are nuts, even with the comment "he's the best of whats available"

We have to stop those "make do" "stop gap" signings. No more one or 2 season players, end of.

Anyone who thinks Pryce is the answer is barking up the wrong tree

Its odd when the baying mob started singing "wheres the pride in Hull FC"

None if we hold Pryce up as a hero

If we sack off Crooks and Lineham, then Pearson has some serious explaining to do, it wont be "challenge 10k"

It'll be please lets try and sell 4k

Those 2 are part of our future, if anyone gets on their back, dont, lets see what a different coach would do and how they would perform under someone else

I feel sneyd has the potential to be a good signing,pryce has the potential to be a waste of money.

That was a typo...should've been 'Challenge 10th'

true either way

IF (B)Radford stays, then the club can say goodbye to at least 3000 pass holders, he's proven to be a failure.

It just seems there's never a set plan on how to approach different teams. Correct me if I'm wrong but every game I see of the nrl they play their 6 & 7 together on both sides with the playmaker wider who can make the better cut throat decisions..with fc they play the 6 & 7 on different sides with the play maker more in the centre and it makes us more predictable out wide. We have little/no dummy runners for the options and it's boring to watch. Pearson (I think) said Gentle was too soft which lost him the respect..it's the complete opposit end of the spectrum with Radford who slates certain players in public if they don't perform. Didn't he say to Crooks 'you can only train with us when you learn how to tackle' ? It should be the coach who teaches a young lad how to tackle and guide him through it not to shut him down and make him learn himself. If the rumours about him and Lineham leaving are true it completely goes against what he's consistently said about bringing through academy players. I would like to see Pearson gather the squad together without Radford and make them annonomusly vote whether he should stay or go, although that is very wishful thinking

Make no mistake, he won't be here next season.
