And was a passenger the week before. Great player on his day but too inconsistent for me. Given our existing consistency issues I don't think he's the right signing for us.

I think you are right Doc, give me the choice between Rankin and Chase, I'd take Chase, but I still hope we sign two decent halfbacks, although I have been saying this for years.

I never we should sign him, i opened it up for debate (which I am sure what this forum is for).

Persoanlly I undecided, he more or less singlehandedly beat us in the cup, and IMO is a far better player than anything we have at the club, the reason Cas are better is because of their coach and the fact they get to spread there salary cap evenly instead of paying big on one players, we should have a bigger budget and could afford him. He is a massive knob though and inconsistent, but much better than anything we have at halfback.

but how long until he blows his top or goes missing in games or gets in trouble....to much of a liability

Has been a good boy so far at salford, he certainly goes missing alot less than our current halfs, I'm not saying we should sign him, but I'd rather have him at halfback next season for Hull than Rankin or Miller.

If it's true about Dobson to Salford , can't see hudge been to happy after Dobson using the clause in his contract to go to oz when hudge wouldn't let him go to Salford last year .

If we did sign Chase (and I'm not sure we should) his half back partner would need to be an experienced, "steady the ship" sort of player to provide stability on those days he goes AWOL or has another brain fart.

We have one , mr Horne !

Can't believe there is talk of signing Chase, there is no way he'd leave Salford. Not forgetting the fact he's apparently the highest paid player in the league.

Most of us knew that a return to SL was on the cards when he went, so I doubt Hudge will be that worried. Good luck to him, he was a great servant to us, hope he gets a big chunk of the mad doctors cash.

I don't rate Horne now but he is everything you mentioned in your post
