Just heard we have signed him from Hull FC, strange one for me if we were looking to strengthen thought there would be other priorities.

Personally think we are crying out for another big prop we get bullied when Millington goes off.

We are.
Just hope he gets his head right.

Lets hope we dont let him out on loan lol

Another "Nut"case then? Why do we do this?


Presuming this is correct of course.

I know this is tongue in cheek, but there's a lot of truth to it. If fans knew what a significant number of players get up to in their free time they'd be shocked. It's like the whole Zak debacle; anyone who thinks he's in the minority is kidding themselves. "Recreational" drug taking is rife & some players are quite brazen about it so fans get to find out I.e. Zak. Whereas a lot of others fly under the radar & stay on their pedestal.

So Watts is a druggie then pal? I’d be carful

It's all over Hull forum. "on and off field issues"! So issues generally?

Everyone was moaning that we didn't have a big nasty prop, well if it's true we have got one,

If correct could be a good signing and when Wardle returns it will add toughness to the forwards something the team has been lacking for a long time

I'd snap their hands off. We have cap space from Hardaker which I imagine will be £120k+ but can we afford a fee?

Just hope this is true we have been crying out for a quality prop for awhile. Be great to bring a local lad back where he belongs, he should never have been let go in the first place he was always quality.

100% true. Been told he is on a big wage and we have paid a big price for him.

I'm chuffed. On the field he has been a top 5 prop in superleague for a couple year. He will shine under us and Powell.

Great two days for the club ...could be englands prop in years ahead up to him now

I assume that the TotalRL website told you?

Great signing for us.

Looks like he's on his way

By that you mean you read the Hull daily mails reporter Tweet that very thing?

£100k transfer fee between both clubs. He had originally agreed in principle with Toronto but didn't hesitate to sign with us when we made a play.

Hull online tabloid reporting it as fact he has been cut suggests there is creedence to it. Cas mentioned specifically too. Positive signs.
