Radford in yesterdays HDM on Jordan Abdull - "He is bigger on the field in our group than he is socially. I wish they were all like that because it would make my job a lot easier." Wonder if that's a dig at some of the younger members of our squad & why there are rumours of some of them leaving? http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-FC- ... story.html

Rich Whiting was a squad player.
Danny Brough was just a squad player
Sam Moa was a "project"
Thompson was a squad player.

Some people really need to get a grip. Not every signing we make is an NRL Grand Finalist, Man of Steel or household name. The players mentioned above all proved their worth to us.
Washbrook is a hard tackler, has a good brain on him and will improve our ball-playing speed.

I like Washy, he'll be a good addition to the squad, but that's not true at all.

no problem with getting washy, if we have injuries he could turn out to be a very good signing,nobody likes injuries but there do happen and you need players like him to slot in,

just because McNamara picks a player it doesn't make them actual international standard, and yes, we won in Cardiff TEN YEARS AGO with Dowe, but he was surrounded by better players. If Washbrook is the future of the club then it's not a future filled with silverware. I do wish some FC fans would have a little more ambition at times.

Washbrook will be surrounded by better players. I do wish that some FC fans would have a little more realism at times.

Ignoring who good and bad people think he is.

But do we need another backrower?

I would have been happy enough if we had signed him,workhorses like him are hard to find,plus he hardly misses a game.Decent signing for me.

Exactly, hardly a bums-on-seats signing but will do a job for us, especially if we are unlucky with injuries.

Its tough call, if it was a league game would want leeds no doubt,but would rather face hull in a semi final than leeds.The game its self is a 50/50 call for me.
