COME ON U HULL:26533.jpg |

| Pretty good signing and one who appears to replace whiting versatile in a number of positions young and best to come with quite a bit of super league experience I think we may of backed off bringing in a 6 I think the coaches are going to give Carlos a go at staking his claim for next season but got to say im impressed with our recruitment and the fact where doing business so early this is for me a good statement of intent already for next season well done FC where on the up for sure

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason.

| Seems a decent enough prospect, reckon that's confirmed Michaels is going, and have to wonder if Yeamo is hanging the boots up.

| Quote: Irregular Hoops "It's the old "fans don't rate a player that's leaving the club" routine.
I think it's a very good signing, and very good recruitment again from the club. As was Griffin.
Not a cast off in any way shape or form. Young, talented, aggressive and can play all along the back line.
Amazing how some supporters look for any type of negative in whatever the club do.'" Could not of said it better myself. 20 try's in 44 app. Not bad for a young player with supposedly no pace.

| Quote: Tarquin Fuego "Centre is arguably the easiest position to play in the game yet we struggle to produce a winner.'" You're the first person I've ever heard describe centre as the easiest position to play. If anything from a defensive point of view it's probably the hardest given how many crucial decisions a centre needs to make.

It's funny how other supporters see you knocking anything the club does eh? do you have FACTS that hudds didn't want to retain him? His try scoring & assists are very good for a team 2nd bottom, but you knock him before he even puts on a shirt for us. If anything he wants to test himself coming to a new team so let's see how he goes before you can claim him a cast off with no pedigree.

mmmm.....If I was asked to play and could pick a position I would go centre. Just seems less mentally challenging.
Defensively you need to defend a 2 on 2 or if outnumbered 3 on 2 , be clever and don't let number 1 attacker draw you in.
When I coached we thought centre was a safe place to blood a youngster. By the way every position is a tough gig however centre seems to marginally scrape it.
The main point is why can't we produce them ?

Told Huddersfield not happy about losing Connor, for obvious reasons when a young talent goes. He'll have a fight to get in FC team
So much for a cast off

Did you? You've never mentioned it before.
Because defending in the centres for Skirlaugh under 11's is the same as playing pro RL....

So twitter is the font of all knowledge...ok.
Huddersfield have let him go, It doesn't add up if he was such a 'talent', better than any other player from within our junior ranks and a genuinely outstanding player why are they letting him go, why is he not being considered to stay at hudds and be a mainstay in their side?
Surely someone so good would have been signed up by them for longer so at least they would be getting a fee if they couldn't keep him and be under the cap right?
And the question I asked, why are our own youngsters not good enough/not deemed good enough to do the job that JC is being employed for? Is there a genuine lack of player talent coming through, on the face of signing this young man I'd say there was room for concern, where is the next batch of youngsters coming from?
Asking genuine questions is met by idiotic posters with an axe to grind, completely frozen mindset that see any question as a threat/attack/being negative about the club and the usual trolls like Doom & Gloom whom can't string together a cogent response never mind hold a green crayon to colour in their silly picture.

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

Why not let the young man play a few games and base your opinion on that? You strike me as the kind of person who has historical issues with French and German people, shall we buy you some Sanatogen to get you through the week? Or maybe tennalady?

FFS, THEY HAVENT LET HIM GO, HEHAS CHOSEN TO LEAVE THEM AND SIGN FOR US.
I really don't think you understand the game at all, if you can't understand that you need a squad to be successful, we are losing long Pryce and Micheals and have replaced them other players, as shown there are still plenty of Hull youngsters around and as Radford had shown he will given them a chance if needed.
I'd be surprised if you have seen him play, Huddersfield, the majority of there fans are disappointed he is leaving and his stats this season on a poor team steroid, despite being played out of position, sure you are just being negative for the sake of it.
