To be honest though, if you put kearney into the warrington side, he'd be classed as a top player by the end of the season.

Sometimes having class beside you helps raise your game more.

sit on the fence why don't you!

If L**ds are letting him go then I can't understand Catalans signing him, cannot imagine he's cheap either.

Shows the dearth of decent fullbacks available to SL next year, I honestly can't think of 3 top quality fbs who'll be playing here next year, unless somebody pulls a real surprise out of the bag.

With the shortage of talent around, I would love us to get Matthew Russell on board as a good future prospect.
It would seem that Tomkins is staying put at fullback for the foreseeable, so it might prompt Russell to want a move.

weird, Catalans have given Webb 2 years?!?!?!?

Maybe it is a 1 year contract spread over 2 years

Can't do basics pass a ball , lets ball bounce rather than take it on full .
No noway.

Webb is awful, I can't understand Robinson going for him. He rarely runs the ball back, choosing to throw wild passes to the wingers. Personally, I think he's frightened to take a tackle.

Full-backs are a rarity, it's often a thankless job and more often than not they get the blame for letting in tries. Are there any decent youngsters coming through the ranks at Hull we can look out for?

jack briscoe.. he a decent prospect for us at full back isn't he??

I'd hazard a guess at no.

Jamie Shaul?

Re: Rumours.... : Tue Sep 04, 2012 8:26 pm  

Shaul is pretty decent, but some way off yet. If he stays in league, then Wrigglesworth could make a useful FB.

But there's nothing immediately, and J. Briscoe is just living off his brothers name.
