Is BTW injured? I know it was our decision not to send Jansin as we want him for our 19's play off series.

BTW played for Oxford or Cambridge last week I think.

Knights fans on the NRL subreddit not happy about letting him go

I'm fed up of hearing the "blocking young players" argument when someone who isn't a bona fide superstar is signed. The truth is that if they can't dislodge a supposedly mediocre player then perhaps they aren't going to be that great themselves. As has been pointed out injuries will almost certainly happen and opportunities arise for the replacements then. The younger player has a selection advantage in that first he's likely to be cheaper and secondly he's got potentially got more playing time in him so as long as he's approximately as good as his older, average, rival then he'll be the one getting the contract renewal.

Genuine young talent doesn't get stopped - it didn't stop Schofield and Crooks getting into a very strong Hull side, it didn't stop Briscoe and (unfortunately) it hasn't kept Burgess out the Wigan team.

Anyway welcome Carlos - I'm prepared to see how he goes first in a Hull shirt.

But, but, but, he's stopping the kids.
You're right, it's a pathetic position several fellow posters ridiculously trot out on a regular basis.

And i'm sick of us signing mediocre players and giving them a chance before our young lads.

Are you not glad we gave Lineham a chance instead of signing Youngquest? Playing Shaul instead of re-signing McDonnell?

Overseas signings should ONLY be made if they're genuinely able to make a difference, not utility players that have only played 13 top flight games in 4 years.

3 offers? He was begging for a NRL contract before he went missing.

Crossing a road to watch a game and having a child as the same time Talamoa fell over the line a few times are a massive stretch of anyone's imagination it's true. I'm glad we kept him and cashed in on Lineham.

Roopy has the same opinion of SL that you do of the KC. But it is fascinating to find out which school players went to and who their u13's coaches were. I'm particularly looking forward to see how "world class" coach Stone can his young half backs careers up. If he can't get in a truely awful Knights side who played players in there wrong position rather than play him why is he good enough for a overseas spot with us?

Good luck mate you'll need it.

Not really, not one poster who doesn't rate the signing will boo him for no reason and everyone will want him to succeed.

If no one discussed new signings the forum would be like Widnes' mid week.

Bloody hell welcome back Mr Touchy. Didn't realise you knew every single fan and how they will react.

incidentally I wasn't referring to anything said so far on this forum or any of the stupid posts elsewhere on social media. It's more when he has a bad game and half of the fan base climb on his back. You might not think it will happen but I attend most home games and hear it happening week in and week out.

All good then. Night.

Does anyone know how to upload a photo on here from watssap Please.

10 pages about a signed up centre, and not a word from the coffee woman, she must have passed out in the excitement......

Or like most of us she doesn't really know much about him and will wait to see play before making an opinion

Maybe she can judge his legs or summat
