Clifford will most likely play

But Townsend is a good player been around a while would have him here deffo

Certainly a good move to help clubs in regards to overseas signings with the gulf between the NRL & SL the biggest it’s ever been in terms of the financial aspect which is only going to continue to grow.
It’s also good for SL as clubs will bd able to attract young players who want to make a mark in SL to get a gig in the NRL like Clifford rather than ones coming to top up their pensions.

Something needed to be done as the NRL pool is almost dried up.
As a knock on affect hopefully it could also raise the profile of SL a bit if the U.K. game can attract top young talent that can’t get any game time in first grade. May also benefit NRL clubs to work with SL clubs too.

I know some fans aren’t keen on seeing young players come over that may only be at their club for a year but for me it does help improve our game as a sport.

We should either of upped the cap to about 4m or scrap it all together

All its done is hold the game back

Other sports prize money is miles bigger than it was in 2000

Yet ours stayed roughly the same

Problem bang on about teams been in debt

But look how many teams in football are in debt ( enormous debt ) aswell

Yeah I thought the same, they've lost Milnes and now Abdull which has left them short in the halves.

Maybe he's had too much Christmas chocolate? Seems an odd move with the season 6 weeks away.

Fitness is his biggest issue, if he can have a decent season in France he'll have plenty of teams after him.

I did hear that Peters and he had fallen out, which may or may not have been the case, but it weakens them in depth, as he can be very good when motivated and fit, but those two words may mean different things to him than other pro's and it just shows that maybe managing a squad with some egos is something Peters is yet to master?

Crikey, how will they frame this after banging the "Man of Steel Elect" drum for so long?

I believe Abdul has a few issues going on outside the game , A move to France and away from Hull will probably be good for him.

It’s unfortunate timing announcing his departure just a day after kr owner was touting for post office business in the hdm..

After saying he "hates" Hull FC I think any chance of him coming to us in 2025 is slim to none.

Not sure Rovers will be happy with who they're looking to replace him with either

Jake Clifford? I could forgive him for making one wrong choice in life

Similar to Griffin maybe? Weakened us in the short term but better for the player and club in long term
