you have to remember this was on a fans forum so is probably rubbish as is everything on fans forums

Hudgell certainly has long fingers.... He could also be reeling Justin Morgan back to continue his good work after the dismal year we've had! Chester isn't ready yet in my opinion. Still think its a mistake that Morgan was let go - he should've been given the chance to finish what he started. Had he been here this past season then we would've made the playoffs as that was standard. Interesting to see how the appointments play out. ....

Parting company with Morgan was entirely necessary. We would still be feeding the likes of Vella, Newton, Galea for as long as they wanted if he'd stayed. The kids wouldn't have ever got a look in.

Just because Sandercock isn't hitting the heights doesn't make it any less correct.

bit harsh that, it was morgan that blooded the likes of taylor, cox, sheriffe, welham.

agree about the vella, galea and newton comment, however, i would have kept newts.

Depends. Worst finish since promotion season? Measure of a coach is what he gets out of resources available, so 10th place from a full cap squad might be seen as a step back. Morgan was criticised on youth policy, but what about Watts, Taylor, Welham? Working within the same future financial constraints, who's to say he'd not bring young players through?

As I said, Sandercock's current standing should not be used to measure the decision to part company with Morgan. I'm not anti-Morgan at all, he was a good neighbour of mine, but it was going stale. Perhaps Morgan's own contract was part of the reason he left/was pushed?

Very close to the truth, but its actually Rovers' coach driver who they've approached as he has far more potential.

Cory Paterson news - Cory won his pro boxing match in Newcastle yesterday with a knockout 30 seconds into the second round. He is now off to help coach an Hawaiian side that will play Queensland Aboriginal side, and then to Hull.

...... really, that was hysterical..

I've heard his next fight is against Tony Booth.

Tony Booth, He still going?

Newton would have stayed if Morgan went sooner, as would Fox.

JAIL

Stan.Isn't it awful when try and take the mick and then the lad shuts you up by posting a link,still iam sure you'll apologise.! lol.!

No Need.

I'd prefer it if you stopped coming on here altogether and just stayed on your own forum. Is there one dedicated to pond life?

Maybe some ex player(s) such as these will be lured back. Should you ever go back?

If there is you'll know about it.
Do you have a link.?
Thought not.!

Not that I need spell it out, but everyone on here know you are the missing link

It's a pretty unique achievement to be universally disliked by the entire rugby population of Hull.

Welcome alex brownicon_smile.gif

Its going to be in tomorrows HDM.

Pity we didn't get Walmsley as well!

I haven't read it yet but I've been informed in the league express NH states Rovers are on the verge of striking a deal with Wigan for Taylor; 2 Wigan fringe players and cash.

He also mentions there will be a couple of overseas junior players coming over, and that the club are after a forward and a full back.

Brown confirmed, seem to have a few wingers signed on for next year.

Looks like either Hodgson or Hall for FB next year, now that you have released Louis Sheriff.

Craig Hall at full back.
