Kelly's weight did fluctuate quite a bit when he was with us, brilliant player but was a bit out of shape in the 2019/20 seasons |

| Quote: RockNRolla "i don't think it's any coincidence that Holmes, Borough and Cust haven't been getting a game since it was announced they would be leaving their respective clubs.
All 3 where in the starting 17's pretty regularly up until then (barring injuries)
As has been said many times, Myler was having to play catch up with recruitment when he was appointed so think he's done pretty well pesonally considering he's been fishing in a small pond so to speak.
All signings ( Asiata apart) might not have the wow factor which we all crave but they are all good professional's with experience who are also good people off the pitch ( Hardaker the exception ![]()
Hardaker spoils your argument
Ever considered they are just not good enough?

add in Hardaker and Litten and we are going full back heavy instead of hooker heavy
just wish it was halfback heavy |

Or what? We book him in for a gastric band and in the meantime our season ends before it starts? |

As for some of the other players - Cust, Holmes, Bourouh, their lack of games will hopefully help them be fit and healthy leading into pre season with us'"
Was abdul filling his face with pizza at the time? It doesn't look like he's made much progress yet although hard to know as he's been dropped for the last 3 games |

Some people are a bit fixated with Jordan Abdull's weight.

Only because it aff3cts his performances on the pitch. Binned by rovers, not getting a game at catalans. Should we ignore the obvious? |

I just don't see the point in banging on about it. He's always had that body shape and has had a pretty decent career. Rovers supporters loved him until he left. He'll improve us and is a smart use of cap money.
If there are any fitness concerns then the club will work on that with him. |

His wife is due to give birth in December and going by their social media they are loving life over there with their friends and families. Why would they want the upheaval of a third major move in three years. He has no emotional attachment to Hull either.'"
He’s a North Queensland lad and obviously signed as a back up, by all accounts he’s done alright when called upon and the Cowboys are losing Townsend so logic says they’ll agree a new deal, almost seems too strange that haven’t yet.
The longer he goes without a deal you’d have to think he’d be more tempted if there is an offer on the table from Hull. I don’t think he was as desperate to get away as made out, re-joining the Cowboys was too good an offer for his personal circumstances, if he can’t get a resolution in Townsville again then it could be a goer. More likely than Lam ever was IMO. |

Reading some of the comments
I can see why cam Scott used the words toxic fan base.
Lane, Scott, Fash all getting slated too.
It’s tediously childish.

When a club of our stature has won 3 of our last 28 league matches, on top of multiple losing streaks, I think it’s pretty reasonable for fans to be a bit miffed. |

He's never been as fat as he is now and it's clearly affecting his performances. Shows a complete disregard for his employer and his team mates |

It's not exclusively our fan base. But I agree it sometimes goes too far. |

Anecdotal evidence or scientific research? |
