The concern for me is when you read the Huddersfield forum comments on him whether they are positive or negative what does come to light is his lack of pace.'"
He's scored 4 against us in the last 4 games so should of noticed him. 9 tries this term isn't a bad return this year either for a player in a poor team. No set position and only 21
Pace is a great attribute. But fast in the head is obviously in this lad with 9 and 9 assists in a poor team |

like any signing we never know how he will do, but I have faith in Radford and the fc staff who think hes worth it, lack of pace does seem to crop up but he seems more likely to be an organiser etc, brown campese Dobson etc arnt lighting but do a good job

Whiting not blessed with great pace.
Modern day legend though.

| Quote: bonaire "Cant comment on his tries but a good player will always stand out in a struggling team yet when i have watched Huddersfield i never noticed him.
the comment below pasted from a Hudds supporter on their forum sums up the signing for me.
I was always slightly disappointed with Connor - he obviously had bags of talent, but I think he needs that little bit of humility that young players sometimes need.
In my opinion, for a young lad, his lack of pace and stamina is surprising. And when people say he's a good utility player, it normally means that there's better players in all of the positions he can play.
Good luck to him, but I won't live in fear when I see his name on the opposition team sheet'"
Why not quote this one instead |

I'm not sure how anyone can be negative about these two signings, don't think anyone is going over the top with them either. We are top of the league, still in the cup and have strengthen the squad further for next season.

Shocked if we have signed another centre unless it is a young player for the future (18/19) year old.
I still like us to keep Abdul and HTW, then I think we are done and look to have good depth in all areas.

Hooker stands out to me, washy is a good utility but not as effective as we need if houghton is ever out the side. |

Houghton is a machine, when was the last game he missed?
Don't think Litten is too far off and could play the odd game is required. |

He is but these things happen in sport.
Jez is ok but a while off top level. |

I've not seen him play and it seems most people on here haven't either. So instead of knocking the kid before he's even picked a ball up in a black and white shirt, give the lad a break. Welcome to Hull F C Jake.

We've had no-one come onto the scene and cement a regular place in the 17 since Shaul at the back end of 2013(Albeit due to injury to McDonnell), isn't that somewhat worrying that our youth system hasn't produced a break through player in getting on for three years?'"
Why do you always see the worst in everything the club does? A cast of? No pedigree, our recruitment has been very good, we have cover in every position unlike some clubs who are doing it very tough. You are a vey negative person who knows nothing about rugby, I've said this before you knock everything the club does for the reason if it goes pear shaped you can say "told you so" you really are a d1ck. |
