Couldn't agree more,he's a classless,arrogant tool lacking a brain and they are his good points,the rating of 6/10 is about right.

Lets be honest Hudgell backed him because they needed him nothing to do with loyalty

Cox has been released by Warrington. Seemed to be playing well earlier in the season. Wonder if he's worth another chance.

The Championship could be a good level for Jordan, last season he bulked up at Warrington so would make an fair interchange forward to be used as a battering ram when "hard yards" are needed. If the wage demand is not to unreasonable give him another chance.

If the club had thought him likely to be found guilty, he'd have been dropped pdq.

We 'needed' Albert Kelly at the end of the season, don't forget.

The more pertinent point is that we presumably (given the nature of the allegations) thought he would not be found guilty, or were willing to accept assurances to that effect (which ultimately proved correct), so it was appropriate to stand by him.

If we'd supported him after a conviction, as we did with Ben Cockayne, then I think that would qualify as above and beyond and possibly justify some reciprocal loyalty. That said, I was pretty sanguine about us signing Paul Cooke when he left Hull.

It's the 'game' we, as a club are in. I don't mind at all that the Chairman is angry or frustrated - so long as it doesn't distract from or impede putting together a team that can win games.

Yep, can't argue with that. He'd fill a niche, potentially.

Walker and Green are gone, and I can't imagine we'll retain both Allgood and Tilse.

Are interchanges still going down next year though?

I suppose it depends to some degree on whether it was a Chester- and/or Peacock-instigated decision to release him in the first place.

forget walker, as stated by many average player what we need and have since newton, galea, days is 2 hairy d second rows who can defend a class full back and half back they would be priority on salary cap build the rest around these if possible

Exactly right, this Rover 2000 guy obviously knows his rugby league, unlike a lot on here!

Yeah because nobody on here has mentioned were light in the second row department or that we need a half and a decent full back

Exactley, if he was rubbish, they would have looked to release him, Walker gave his all on the pitch and was one of your better players, he owes the club nothing, he doesn't have a contract so isn't breaking it, did Waker get offered a lot less money?

Can't blame him for wanting to play in the top division and he has put in good service with Rovers and owes them nothing.

I think you could easily put together a side to win the league, this side would do that IMO

Cockayne
Lancaster
Salter
Minns
Mantalato
Marsh
Gaskell, Ellis, Finn, Brieley etc
Scruton
Lunt
Tiles
Blair
Donaldson
Lawyer

Clarke
Addy
Jubb
Mariano

That's 3 signings plus the rumoured ones, the key is to be ready for the 8's and save some money for late signings.

Scruton now confirmed. www.hullkr.co.uk/on-the-pitch/ne ... op-scruton Pleased with that.

Decent enough signing imo.

Rather optimistic about the future, wasn't so after the final kick in the MPG. For me, one of the best signings throughout British RL this year going in to next has got to be Sheens. The guys a winner, and people seem to for get he was not the head coach at Salford. Its put us a year behind going down but I'm confident we'll replace someone in SL next year. I don't know who, but there should be a few teams looking over their shoulders, and dare I say, "worried". Gonna miss the derbys though, I for one loved going to the KC on derby day, hairs on the back of the neck moments. Oh well, onwards to batley, dewsbury etc....

In Tim we trust! RRTR
