And it's still a load of .

Well

He demanded his £50k signing on fee up front, for reasons we are not allowed to mention about Rovers finances.

And since then, he'll be on a wage, as those "in the know" like to point out contracts run Nov to Nov.

It makes you wonder just what Hudge was up to in the bar in Cardiff before the game......

Come on then, do tell

Was it as close as Offiah or Scot Quinnell?

So we finally produce a half back and he s off to union?

But who's cares about international rl.

I don't get the hype with this guy always injured and IMO all he has got is speed and strength, he's not s half back! I don't think he'd be a major loss, he didn't look interested on Saturday! Obviously just my opinion of course.

Scott Gibbs?

or Deryck Fox even

I'll raise you with Hanley

Ill raise you stacy jones!!!

Name a better English 7 around his age.

At his age he won't have the organising skills but he is a half back.

But, like Ashton, no he seems to be leaving we'll slag him off.

well why dont give hudge a ring and ask him instead of gossiping like a old women in a launderette down hessle road

Droolers has a big thing against clubs paying small sums out, he's been known to mention Tanseys two transfer fees and 30k on webbo once or twice.

Exactly. He's young and shows the talent needed to make it as a Super League half. The more he plays, the more he will progress as a leader on the pitch. Never like to see any young talented RL player switch codes.

Agree. He's got all the attributes. Problem is he actually looks like a Union scrum half and probably more than most others in SL would fit into the England set up pretty well.

Has Eastmond been confirmed?

Has he ever played hooker? That's a scrum halfs role in union.

Very much doubt he will play 9 or 10 in union. Number 9 is a very skilled position and requires losts of knowledge of the game, also England are well stocked in that area. I would say he will play on the wing, outside centre or full back. Outside centre and Full back would suit his running game.

Already give the reason further down the thread....Do keep up.

No idea , just looks like he'd handle the close quarters Union role with his strength and low centre of gravity.

He will not make it in uinion, another cast aside by a different game!

Nothing to do him leaving I couldn't care less (i dont care about the international game or rugby union, hull fc is all I care about) I have never rated him as highly as everyone else has, that's not slagging him off it's just my opinion.
They probably are not many better at his age your right but I think that's more to do with the fact we fail to produce them (hence the emphasis on overseas half backs) rather than him been anything special!

Aw bless thank you so much

He'll be a Winger/Full back. Don't see anywhere else for him? He isn't good enough or big enough, for a 10 or a Centre. At a push, maybe an outside flanker.

Could play a similar role to what neil back played, lets hope he stays in league

lol your all having a laugh if you think he will succed in Rugby Union. Like someone said above not big enough for a centre not clever enough or skillfull enough for a 9/10, no way can he oust Foden or Ashton so all that leaves him is wing and is not quick enough! too many League players have tried and failed at Union! But Union players make it at League (says something about the games really) Even Ashton said the other day that he did not like Union b4 as soon as it came on tv he used to turn it off but now he loves it, most people from League simply don't understand it!

Not big enough for 10 but big enough to play as a flanker? What?
