Achurch thing looking more like a scam. I messaged Hudge on twitter not expecting a reply but he did stating 'news to me'. So unless Hudge is playing the game better than I think, it's probably false. Shame.

Why would he sign for Rovers. Leigh, Wakefield, Salford, Widnes etc are all preferred options. Like an earlier post said, you are looking at cast offs and dregs for next year.

How do you know what his preferred option would be

As long as Dixon's wage demands are reasonable I'd definitely resign him. In the championship his mistakes will not be punished as much and he'll score you a shed load of tries. Unless he's got other options I'm surprised he hasn't resigned already.

For Once I agree with an FC fan.(doesn't happen very often).. Think Dixon was slagged off too much last season. Admittedly he has faults but so did most of the team, who doesn't? One thing he has got is raw pace, and that cannot be taught. We will need every advantage we can get next season, and given the right service he could flourish.. What we need as supporters is something to raise our spirits, we have had precious little of that the last few seasons.
But we have to go for it this time or we could get stuck in this division. Lets hope we get some aggression and pace plus a winning mentality and hope Sheens can bring it to our club, and start making it enjoyable again.

Re: Players next year : Tue Oct 18, 2016 2:13 pm  

the Hull Daily Mail as confirmed the signing of Addy & Clark from Bradford. These are exactly the kind of signings we need, young enough to develop but with experience of the championship.

Re: Players next year : Tue Oct 18, 2016 2:16 pm  

Clark is an excellent signing. Good prop. A Mitch upgrade.

Re: Players next year : Tue Oct 18, 2016 2:39 pm  

Both will give 100%. Addy will be ok provided he's not asked to play in the halves or at hooker. He needs to play in the backrow. Anywhere else and he'll have you tearing your hair out. He can be inconsistent but should do ok if not asked to fill in for others.

Clark is promising but raw. Will take the ball up at 100mph with no thought for his own safety. Never stops. Will put his hand up when others have gone missing. Bit of mongrel but also a bit error prone and can throw in the odd reckless challenge when he's tired. Concedes a few penalties when riled. A few rough edges. Something for Sheens to work with. You'll like him.

Re: Players next year : Tue Oct 18, 2016 6:32 pm  

clark sounds like the kind of prop who will end up at Hull if he does well for rovers

Clark sounds better than Tilse already.
