If Rugby League Rocks, then Hull KR is its Soul.: |

| Quote: Dave K. "I hope you mean Widnes and not Hull for two reasons.
He isn't good enough for us and what would the point in signing for us when he would only play reserves or sit in the stands.
Reckon he could end up in the championship with Toulouse now they can have a SL salary cap.'"
Ouch! I smell the premature heady aroma of intoxicated Top 4 success for the next decade in your post, Dave.
So the bulk your reserves aren't good enough to play for you using that analogy. I'm sure you signed Stuart Howarth last year if memory serves.
Danny Houghton needs a competent speciality #9 back up, which Washbrook sadly isn't. He's a better hooker than the young kid Litten languishing patiently in your reserves too.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Quote: Pickering Red "French Johnny is a good little player. (fellow Hull KR fans should note the deliberate attempt to wind up Goose here). This really is a season to forget for le Pocket Rockette, however.
Personally I like the tempo John Boudebza brings to the team when he comes on to spell Lunt. A bit like Dwyer for Clarke at the Wire, but without the same goal line threat from dummy half.
The problem for him this season is that his development has been hampered by the illogical 4 match ban for that tackle on Shenton. That gave the promising George Lawler the chance to move to hooker in his absence, where he emerged as a player of genuine class and potential and more than proved his worth. Add to that the return of Lunt to the starting line up, some hesitant form on his return and more limited opportunities in a struggling side and his stock and worth to us has plummeted. His form has been OK, much better than fellow garlic gobbler Larroyer, who has been beyond poop since his return to the side imo and looks a shadow of the player of 2 seasons ago.
I can see Johnny B as a Black and White next year. Larroyer should be consigned to our history too.'"
Duly noted.
Boudebza has been chronically under played this season, why we have done this, I have no idea.
His tackling from marker and his overall technique is excellent, however, it reminds me a little of how we played Ben "Nemo" Fisher in his latter days at the club.
Leg tackling hookers, or anyone who defends around the play the ball are just not fashionable.
Super Kev to rip it up in the Rubbish Eight's, despite what our resident Tory says.

![BEAT icon_beat.gif](images/smilies//icon_beat.gif) That hurts, Goose. You are an Avian diablo.
Unwilling though to shell out 25 squids to vote to maintain Jeremy and his trotskyite, deluded, didactic, 70s throwback, Socialist ideology at the vanguard of political opposition. File under USELESS WET LETTUCE TO$$ER

| Aye, we could go all night on that Squire.
Seemed a bad idea at the time (good back Bencher's are always needed) turned out to be just that.

Yep. A mess as a leader.

Our reserves are made up of young local lads got the future, they all won't be on too much money, now seeing that He has just turned now a contract with you, I don't think he is a value for money signing.
Howarth was an awful signing and I hope we have learnt from that.
Why do we need a back up hooker, when would be play, what would the point in paying 30/40k for a hooker to sit in the stands.
Ricdiclous to compare a 18 year old kid to a established hooker, it's like saying you should sign Carlos T to replace Liam Harris as he is a better player.
I quite like being on the top 4, signing John B isn't really going to help us stay there. Decent player but not a top 4 player.
If that isn't enough his dive and cheating against us in the CP Derby is another reason I wouldn't want him.

Danny Houghton is a modern day BATFINK. "My wings are like a shield of steel, your bullets will not harm me." Teak tough, elusive and indestructible.
Trouble with Danny is he might be a crippled old cabbage by the time he is 30, if he continues playing every League and Cup game available for the whole 80 minutes and making over 40 tackles a game. His injury-free run could come to an end at any time. That's why you need an experienced back up regular hooker.

He certainly is a machine, I'm sure there will be a point when he does pick up an injury or can't do 80 mins, hopefully by that time Litten will be
ready, I still maintain the fact that if we do sign a back up hooker he is of better calibre that Jonny B.

| I doubt Hull would value french johnny as much as rovers would so unless the pull of a bigger, more successful club is enough to compensate then I doubt he'll end up anywhere near our team.

You can do better than that Jake, surely. You practice enough.
