Totally agree. He says he doesn't want to dig him out but does exactly that.

I get it that you don't won't to go over the top with praise on a youngster but to highlight a specific error is very poor. Far more experienced hookers have make that mistake including Houghton.

He seems to get far more cop than others maybe there's something going on behind the scenes that we are not privy to.

Easy, either keep quite, say nothing or just say Balmforth is going a good job for such an inexperienced player.

Worse case mention he has work to do with his game, dont pick individual errors or name areas of weakness like he has done the last two weeks.

Really poor from Grix.

Read it completely different, he was asked a question and said about him getting a lot of exposure but still having problems in his game, trying to keep him grounded to me

seems illogical that a club would keep such a promising player dangling on a string regading his contract and let the interim coach keep criticising him in the HDM
Those are things between the clubs coaches and Balmforth not aired via a local newspaper.
You play to players strengths
Steve Evans was a fast elusive half back but couldnt tackle a mouse yet played for Great Britain
Im with you.Something has gone on behind the scenes and more likely whilst Tinkering Tony was here.

Whether he's signed or not will all be done and dusted by now. I know some of the younger players had signed contracts months ago but they've only just been announced

Just posted the same on the Warrington game thread…il end up sounding like Bonaire but Grix is out of his depth here and should have gone with Smith and Gene…he is championship level at best and I hope he goes at end of season

An old one but anyone else heard that lafai has signed? Someone mentioned to me the other day it’s a done deal

He plays for Salford.Ritchie Rich only knows Leigh

He was injured in the warm up yesterday so likely true

Bourouh confirmed.
3 year deal.

Three years is a bit of a surprise, quite a gamble on a relatively inexperienced player.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it but an interesting choice of words from the club saying that he'll be "adding some important depth to the hooker role".

Good luck to the lad. Lets see how he goes.

and Balmforth goes to Salford

Crying Babies Alert.

I'm fairly positive but if we lose Balmforth because we've signed Bourouh I'll be absolutely gutted. Rimbu and Balmforth would be such a dynamic pairing. Bourouh is probably not even Morgan Smith standard yet.

Ladies and gentlemen…..I introduce to you the scapegoat for Hull fc from 2025 for 3 yrs….Amir Borough.How about we see how he goes before we have a go at him eh,I know it’s a radical idea
