I wonder if Hull where in for a Player who signed for Rovers this season

i take it you mean Fox

I've heard of one.

I also know of a player that Hull signed who Rovers didn't want...[i"Byrne, baby byrne..."[/i

You have a 1 in 11 chance of being right.
Are you

Oh why didn't you sign him. Was it because of referances from other clubs??????/

Read my sig your own forum members think your a joke too

So basically, every player Hull signed Rovers could have signed but chose not too, but every body Rovers signed Hull tried too and failed.





You lot make me laugh.

He did that a long time ago

A lot of folk make me laugh from Peter Sharp and his signings to the amount of time a certain Hull forum poster spends p.m'ing mods and admin......but so is life.



Both seem to be having similar success

Hull gateshead sharks fc rflc ltd europe super league make me laugh.

Is this another one of those 'I know something but can't say on these boards' to make someone look important



I know one Rovers player who chinned another during the off season...

Dont know is it.

No.

This is how it works.

1) Players agent contacts clubs to make them aware of the players availablity.

2) Club decides whether to make an offer or not.

3) Club tells players agent of decision.

It was at stage 2 that Morgan contacted Dixon.

What exactly is your problem with this?

So if Morgan wanted him he would be at Rovers, Ok then, do you think you just have to click your fingers and players will sign for Rovers



I would doubt that a player of Berrigan calible would have signed for anyone other that a top six team.

Show me a link either that backs up ANYTHING that you have said about Berrigan, I will start to believe you, otherwise I only have your word and with your track record of statments it is very hard to believe

Question for Zod

Would Morgan guarantee Hall a starting centre position ?

Whats your opinion Hutchie.

I not Hutchie, but I thought have thought the answer would be no, with webster and Walker at centre, i couldnt see Hall getting a starting spot and I think that is one of the reason he will stay at Hull.

No and more to the point, where the hell have I [uever[/u said that?

Had his references been suitable, Morgan would have no doubt made an offer for him to play at centre but even then he wouldn't have offered him the money that Hull did as centres generally cost less than hookers.


Berrigan signed the best deal possible for him and like I have said before, no other SL club was prepared to match Hull's offer a 4 year deal of £180,000 per year.



I've already said more than I should have really. Besides, thinking logically , do you think such discussions would be made public knowledge on a website link???


I'm not asking you to believe me, I'm just telling you the truth. The infamous Yeaman quote was stated after he had visited Craven Park and agreed terms with Justin Morgan. In most cases, players who agree terms usually sign on that basis hence my "prediction". Anyway, do you really think I give a toss that Yeaman didn't sign? I'm more than happy with our centres, believe me.

And after all that and taking into account Berrigan is a Hull player, what exactly is your problem?

I like him as a player but he has 2 big deficencies in his game right now.
1 he needs to bulk up as he gets bumped off too easily.
2 he needs to play with his head up more.

Doubt it but ya never know.

He certainly isnt the finished artical, but has the potentila to be one of the best British centres in SL, he looks alot stronger this season and looks better in defence.

If Hull let him go it will be a massive mistake IMO.

Thats always a danger with producing good young players.
Other clubs often get the benefit after they emerge.
Radford being an example

I would hope that the club is in a position now to not lose top young players, the same would go for Rovers.

Hopfully the days of losing the Radford's and Wilkins are gone.

A few years ago alot of 16 year olds use to sign for Leeds, Bradford and even Halifax

, think those days are gone with the strenght of the two clubs.

I hate seeing top young players leave the city.

1 I would agree with but is not uncommon for young players.
2 ?

Young players have weak areas to work on. When you have too many in a side the side struggles because there are too many weaknesses combined. Hall will be a SL centre in years to come.

We know about young player development at Hull FC.

Watch him closely when he recieves the ball at Hudds and you might pick up on what i mean.

ther lies you answer, without a guaranteed centre spot he wont even contemplate a cross city move
