No - the other RL player called Loz Wildbore.

You need to lie down and get some medication

Are you speaking from experience?

Were you aiming for irony?
If so good arrows sir, good arrows.

I've clocked it before, it makes absolutely no sense and isn't funny on any level.

Sands, as our "full back" guru on here, what do you think to Eden?

Despite his error count (thanks to La Cafe for bringing this to a wider audience), he had a promising debut season for the Giants. I think they would be mad to let him go.

If they already have 2 young fullbacks that are ahead of him in the queue because Anderson rates them more highly overall, and Rovers are putting cash on the table, it's not really madness to offload, more like common sense.

They don't though. Grix isn't young (2icon_cool.gif and Murphy has played most of his career at centre or on the wing. I rate Murphy higher than Grix, but he's untested as a full back.

All of this means (in my mind) that we won't get Eden, and we will be faced with 10,000 cackling voices as Hall drops another bomb on Good Friday.

Young in Hull FC terms. Anderson seems to have put Grix ahead of Eden. Could be that he has plenty of attacking prowess across the back line and wants a safe pair of hands at the back. Bit like at FC when McKinnon slung his hook we went with exciting prospect Russell from Wigan for bit. Ultimately, from a personal POV, I felt more comfortable with the less impressive but safer Horne or Whiting. I think the opposite, I think you will be getting a FB because you haven't got one in the squad as it stands. Hall is a talented player but has not delivered at FB yet. Whether it's Eden, and it sounds like it is, remains to be seen.

Rumours are richard horne and Eden have signed for us

"Robins in for Eden" on front page of League Weekly tomorrow.

Got a mate who is a hudds fan who says that it appears eden is leaving for rovers. Looked great when hudds were going great guns, cack when they weren't

I've got to be honest and say that I haven't seen enough of him to have a fully formed opinion. I certainly remember him having an absolute shocker against us at CP.

He's got potential and seems half a fullback at the moment in that he looks good going forward but his positional sense seems lacking.

I'm surprised that Huddersfield would be willing to let him go, seems a bit early to make a decision to get rid even though they've got Grix and Murphy.

Interesting points on the Giants board about what you want from a modern fullback, it's certainly a position that's changed a lot over the last few years. I'd rate my priorities as this.

1. Organising the defence.
2. Being solid under the high ball.
3. Joining the attack.
4. Kick returns.
5. One on one defence.

From the little I've seen I'd say Eden is good at numbers 3 and 4, I haven't seen enough to judge him on point 1 and has a lot of work to do on points 2 and 5.

Move East for Eden?

You'd think journalists might be capable of the occasional oblique literary reference.

Anyway - I'd have to accept Jake's assessment. Still be delighted if it comes off though.

Grix is a good option for at fb Hudds, Murphy looks much better on the wing or at centre IMO.
