Re: Half backs.......

Honestly, I don’t think Trueman would be much of a loss. Since 2018, he’s had very few good games. Too often he’s anonymous, especially in tight games. He’s nowhere near the top SL half-back he was supposed to turn into. We need someone who can put in consistently good performances rather than a pla...

Re: Trueman

His he not free to go anywhere after this season for free. Yes he is Technically he came through our system. So there maybe a fee because we trained him. Technically, he is a club trained player as he was with the club for three years before the age of 21. Just. However (as per the previous post), ...

I think this only applies to players under 23. If I remember correctly, we were interested in signing Cameron Smith but as he was under 23, Leeds would have been entitled to a fee.

Re: Trueman

I don’t get why Hull would pay 170k when he can negotiate to move for free in May. They wouldn’t. I understand the theory that it allows Hull to talk to the player before May when others may also speak to him but £170,000 for a chat is perhaps a little optimistic. Depends how keen they are on him. ...

We are not a billion ££££ Premier League football team. The financial cost of sacking a coach and paying him off would be considerable. I don't know Radders wages but a reasonable guess of his and his assistant coach wages over their contacts period would be 250k ++++. exactly & who would we ge...

Re: Fonua

The bizarre thing is that he’s playing ahead of Jordan Turner, who was by far our best player and top try-scorer last season. Turner played yesterday and was shoddy at best. Missed tackle for the long range try in the second half was very poor. Trueman dropped off a few including that one too. Got ...

I was going to question Radford’s decision to select Matagi on the bench and then not use him in the game.
Then someone told me he was actually on the field at some point.
A rating of 4 is probably 4 too many.

Re: [Match Discussion] Hull KR Away

Personally, I don’t think we can set the precedent of picking the same players who produce such poor performances (though it’s not possible to drop all of them). I’m sure it won’t happen, but I’d go: FB - Evalds RW - Olpherts RC - Mamo LC - Turner LW - QareQare (or Eden) SO - McShane (controversial...

Re: Plea to Grattan/Pell...

Even if we haven’t got the first win by Easter, we need to calm down & be realistic with our aspirations. I doubt many people would think not winning a game until Easter is a realistic aspiration. In fact, it’s not an aspiration at all. We’d be in massive trouble if that happens - there is no w...

Re: A realistic take

We have played 2 teams that are always going to be in the top 3/4 of the table. We are pretty much a new side in parts of the pitch. The team has been poor for large parts of the last two seasons under Powell. Give Lee a chance. It might not be the rugby we are used to but he has won trophies befor...
