Tickle is out of contract come end of this season, so he'll go to widnes for free so hull had to pay a transfer fee for handbury

| It's Hanbury not Handbury. Fast player with a decent brain. No world beater but would improve us. Would be nice to set our sights higher but realistically who is available ?

| Quote: Staffs FC "Slow ptbs are a big issue for us. A top half with authority bossing players around and demanding off the ball running would help though so I don't quite subscribe to the 'it wouldn't matter who was playing 7' argument. In regard to the ptb if our ball players played closer to the line it would help us win more collisions and ptb more quickly - at the moment because we don't challenge the opposition's defence enough they win more rucks than us. All these things are linked but come back to the same root cause IMO. Since DJ got smashed off the ball at Saints we seem to be putting our plays on even further in front of the opposition than normal.'"
It's noticeable how far away from the line DJ is standing, must be for protection after his recent injury. Your halfback has to play in the face of the opposition to make a difference.

| IF we had Green & Smith from Wigan,as our halfbacks, do fans think, we'd attack the same as Wigan??
For mine, its not about personnel totally, its more about structure & coaching.

I wouldn't disagree about the structure etc. Just that teams can stand off our ball players as they know they can't get round them with pace or a quick step round them. That then makes it easier to pick up any runners, which makes our structure look rubbish. Faster players can compensate for slower play the balls.

Nobody with the skill set we need. Gentle will know Hanbury too, so I'd imagine he has already thought about him.

| For me the player we need played against us on Saturday and ripped us apart as he has done ever since he left.
The Giants are skint and crowds are appaling, a good offer to them and a generous contract to Danny should do it. (get Seymour off the books to pay for it)
We cant sit around waiting for one to come through the academy or an out of contract player come for free, the right player will have to be paid for.

You watched a different game to me.
Plus Hudds will never sell Brough and I doubt he wants to come here anyway.
Some folk have a totally unrealistic view of how player transfers work.

Allegedly Wigan enquired about Brough last season, - £800,000 was the reply.
Don't think the Giants are skint neither, (they have a wealthy backer in Ken Davy, who sold his company in 2001 for £75million.)
