| Quote ="Trojan Horse"Next year we have Pitts and Kalepi signed up for second row. Kalepi isn’t that old tbf. Griffin would be good till end of this season. Would give him the chance to put himself in shop window although the way Pitts and Ashurst are playing these past few games I wouldn’t drop either of them.
Guess we will see how this pans out. Who ever plays though I’ll back them.'"
We are asking a lot of Pitts and Ashurst to play 80 mins every game to end of season. With Proctor at prop and Kelepi injured, French guy out for ages and Windrow still learning we have no cover at second row. Hewitt was a good option but Giants have pulled him back.

I'd like us to try and sign Hewitt if we could,local lad who looked to be enjoying his stint at Trinity, simular to the Danny Kirmond scenario.

I'm with you on that. I think he's a good fit.

Play him in the second row and you have a decent player.

| As mentioned a good signing certainly got a year left at SL level, I'm glad we didn't offer him 2 years though. Really hope he does well for you guys.

| Don’t get the ageism thing at all , when I’ve watched him he is more than a handful for any of the oppositions he’s played against . All well and good filling a team with youth n wet behind the ears lads , but you need those battle hardened lads who don’t get rolled over and can dig in when the going gets tough . I’m more than happy to take him onboard if true , imo he will be a great asset to the club and bring the youngsters on no end .

| He will be available for potentially our final 6 games of the year. He has been very good in the second row for FC this year no doubt. I suppose the 2 year deal will include if we get relegated. It does worry me another 33+ player coming in, but realistically who else is going to join us right now, we are only going to attract players who are equally happy to play SL or championship. How he has kind of been cast aside by Hull FC will hopefully give him the motivation to be a very good coup for us. Welcome back Josh.

| A big change of mind by me having looked back at a few of his games!
At this time I'd much rather have an older guy with experience than a younger guy with potential. We need players who can hit the park running and Griffin can certainly do that.
I was critical of the club for the Dagger/Hall deal - I was wrong! We needed Dagger much more than Hall.
I am very supportive of the club regarding Griffin - very shrewd move.

One more player coming to the dumping ground for old ex S L players .When we going to learn How many old forwards\ players do we need .We started with a team of them at the start of the season .The coach said we are signing two players of Quality .If this is the coaches idea of Quality you can see why we lost our first 15 games

| I will give him 2 or 3 games to keep his gob shut and get involved.
He is not going to improve the mutual appreciation that exists between Trinity and Kendal

For God’s sake man, give it a rest, instead of constantly criticising, just get behind the club and those trying to keep us afloat this season, most on here are trying to remain positive about our survival, and until it becomes mathematically impossible to avoid relegation I will remain positive, and back the club.

Sorry ,but I look at the bigger picture, Say we survive, by just bringing in old men in to the club we will be back at square one for next season.A team of old men. Going on Friday ,was thinking about booking a trip to Scotland for 5 days ,but changed mind because of Wires game at home .As far as backing the club , I am in a very lucky position that I have been invited into hospitality a few times this season. But next season all being well I am paying to go into the hospitality for the season .So do not make out I am not positive or backing the club .Like a few on here stand back and look at the bigger picture .3 wins to me does not make up for a 15 match losing start to the season

Ah see you Jimmy away to Jockland with ye.
Josh has been a fine servant to Hull in the centres and latterly looking a class act in the back row, it’s a real shame he felt compelled to tell Kendal the truth in emotional circumstances, he will help Trin in the fight to stay up, and the club has acted quickly in what must be difficult circumstances financially. Good luck Griff

We’ve just brought a 34 year old back to the club to rally the troops ,a master stroke and who would argue if he decided to turn the clock back and stay another season ? By which time he will be 35 . James Roby 37 ,LMS 37 ,Liam Farrell 33 need I go on . As I’ve said many a time it’s not the size of their age but the size of their heart that determines a players worth,

33 year old. He will be 34 May next year.
Physically he looks in great shape and strong so no issue with this.

And how many games has Kelepi played for us recently, more time on the physio bench than on the pitch ,. Do we seriously think we need one player for every position or do we have players fighting for their position . I’ll stick my neck out and say Griffing is the best player in his position at the club at present whether that be centre or second row ..lynne looks like his gearbox is stuck in permanent slow gear , Ashurt looks like he needs a break to me whilst young Crofts isn’t the finished product yet and has a fair way to go imo
