| Quote j_hunter_hkr="j_hunter_hkr"Very good post and it's something most Hull KR fans can definitely understand. A few years back we had no chance when it came to talented youngsters. Now we are seen as a very attractive club for young players and if the opportunity arises you can't knock them for making the move. People can say what they like about Rovers signing Hull players (Hudgell just trying to get one over you etc...) but every single signing we've made from you has been quality and I think Josh Hodgson will prove to be another one.
From Hull's point of view, you've just lost one of your most promising reserve grade players.'"
Like we say we will get over it. Hodgson or Houghton ? No brainer !!

| Quote The Dentist Wilf="The Dentist Wilf"OK I've left this for a while lets get real here we have lost our third choice hooker to the D*icks across the river who are always trying to nick our good young talent.
However if they could have got Berro or Houghton they would have not given Josh a second thought. In fact anyone who know Danny will tell you that he has been knobbled twice this year but deluded lad that he is ( and a loyal kid too) he wants to play for HUll FC!
plenty of folks go on about us having too many second rowers and here we are complaining because we would have had 3 players for one position. OK he can manage to play loose forward but at the end of the day he is an out and out hooker. He will do well at Rovers, but then look who he is up against, The Robins fans were expecting Danny Brough or someone of the same ilk. They got what they like most however another ready made player that we have nurtured since he was 12!
The way our squad is being restructured we need every penny we can get and the contract we did offer Josh is little different than the one he will get at Rovers however he is looking at getting a game.
lets spend the money we offered him to try and get some young cover for half back or centre!'" was it justine doing the knobbling?

| Quote Scott_HKR="Scott_HKR"1) Third choice hooker at 19? Reserve Player of the Season? Worth keeping surely?
2) Wasn't attempting to fuel fire, but as clubs, colours aside, it is clear as day that Rovers have come on leaps and bounds and Hull have gone bacwards. Short lived or not, only time will tell, but as it stands right now, my statement was correct'"
Any one care to put some rule of spin on this one ?

Indeed you will, but looking at the bigger picture, how long has Berrigan got left? Surely the timing of him retiring would've been perfect for Hodgson's potential break into the first team?
If you're not bothered that a promising 19 year old (your Reserves POTY, no less) has just left to go to your local rivals then fair enough, but it seems a lot of Hull fans aren't happy about this!

The club couldnt offer the lad first team rugby. He then decided to go elsewhere where he will get it. I cannot see why people can blame the club for that.We have better players its as simple as that !!
As for Berro, You could count on one hand the amount of Hookers who would turn down his wages and so we should be able to attract a replacement !!!

Berrigan = nail and head
Forgive me, but I am about to commit suicide.
I would have got rid of Berrigan, he has one year left and has been a dissapointment to say the least. I see a player going through the motions and OK he is being forced to play in odd postitions, but he still ain't performing and a year from now we will be in the market for a new hooker.
Its laughable and it comes with a whole string of odd and worying decisions from within the FC heirachy.

Would you have gone with Houghton and Hodgson as hookers for next season then?

So you'd get rid of Berrigan and replace him with Hodgson?

| Quote Ian P="Ian P"Its a sad day when yet another promising youngster leaves the club because of a lack of vision within the coaching staff. The club are losing out on players they have spent money on and developed, now KR will reap the benefit as Josh is going to be a world class player.
Wrap it up as you like, but some one is making some very odd decisions and the loss of a current England academy star borders on the criminal. The only club will get no return on the investment it has made in Josh will be the reports of him doing well followed by the constant jibes from the red and whites.'"
Deary me.
Did we offer him a contract? Did he want to stay? Was it the money or the promise of first team action?
Why not try to emote less and think more.
