I might get Carter 23 on my home shirt.

I`m old school I think the team should be numbered 1 - 17 not into squad numbers it`s only a marketing ploy.

Re: The squad numbers are....... : Sat Dec 17, 2011 10:07 am  

Actually quite shocked by a couple.
Kyle Wood at 7, Frankie Mariano at 19, and Andy Raleigh at 10, over Kyle Amor.

Ohwell, we'll see how it goes!

I reckon the numbers reflect a couple of things- giving a confidence boost to some and making others aware not to get into a comfort zone.

Agar out!

Re: The squad numbers are....... : Sat Dec 17, 2011 10:20 am  

I don't think they mean a lot; the best news as a fan is that we're going into 2012 with a proper squad of 29 viable SL players.

Well if those squad numbers are anything to go by then god help !
Wood at 7 OMG, I cant believe how anyone would see him being in before Smith, Moore or Wildie.
I am struggling to see where agar came to this conclusion. Wood is a decent impact hooker as he was at Hudds but midfield general he is not. Raleigh at 10 ?? He is not in the same league as Amor end of.
Smith at 20 ? Surely he must have asked for this number ? and washbrook is a squad filler at best and has been at Hull for as long as i can remember.
I am sure that results will certainly have a bearing on whether this is the same preferred side by round 4.
PS; Hyde has been shown the door whilst under contract so read into that what you want.

Go on then, let me have a mone, £10 for the name and number on the shirt.Its a flate rate, if you only have the name its still £10, steep or what.

I think we are probably reading into these a little too much. Players preference of squad number is another factor with players wanting a particular shirt number. Think this is the case with a couple of these choices.
