for some reason Shaul is a golden boy, even though he offers little.

Scott Taylor seen with a boot on this morning

i'm really looking forward to watching him - reckon he's gone right under the radar and will surprise a few.

do wonder where that leaves matty dawson jones though

Good to see Houghton there too. And it seems that Cameron Scott is fit again too having played v York at the weekend. https://www.instagram.com/p/B6aqZ-Qhk6v ... _copy_link

More training footage and welcoming Fonua back. Encouraging to see Kelly looking in good shape and Bowden too - massive season for him. https://twitter.com/hullfcofficial/stat ... 5190554625 Sounds like Swift impressed also in the game v York, very vocal with his centre according to reports. From what we hear I think he'll be a starting winger if fit despite competition from Naulago, Faraimo and Fonua.

Hope so. Just 9 days to the first friendly. Excited for this but doubt we'll be seeing much of the new recruits.

Fans are advised that next Sunday's pre-season friendly clash against @BatleyRLFC at the Fox's Biscuit Stadium will now kick-off at the earlier time of 2.00pm.

Lovely stuff. A little trip to the fancy Red Brick Mill before the game I think.

"Hull Kingston Rovers are delighted to confirm not one, not two, but THREE pre-season derbies against Hull FC!

The Robins will host their cross-city rivals at Hull College Craven Park in an exciting triple-header on Saturday 25th January."

Is it due to their injury problems? I thought this suite of games was more about reserve and academy players.

It is annoying, I was really looking forward to it, but to call it rude is just wrong.
Adam Pearson clearly doesn't find it rude or he wouldn't have facilitated the Academy game at his junior pitch (no idea why Craven Park can't host it).
I'm getting this information second hand but apparently the lack of a scholarship game is an RFL decision.
At least we get to see an Academy game. Result should be a formality but I reckon Rovers will get stuck in and make a decent account of themselves.

Well, Rovers made a big splash about it, with exclamation marks and everything, then "informed" Hull that it was off, so that's a bit ill-mannered. Hats off to AP if he has saved the day as best he can given we don't have the luxury of our own ground to use for precisely this type of event. If the reports of the Rovers Academy motivation to rip in are reliable it will be a long old afternoon for the black and whites.

Rude would have been not informing Hull FC and leaving them hanging about at a locked Craven Park in their tracksuits and big headphones, while going for a cheeky Nando’s.
