Im from hull and have watched him play a lot both for west hull and also KR 19's,reading some good feed back about him so far for Halifax,
interested in any opinions of how he is playing for you guys,think he has great potential,great hands and kicking game,also first class goalkicker
many thanks

He's far too good for us. The lad should be in Rovers team, take him back pronto I say. Sportsman, shudds. Mallinsons Amarrillo 4.2% Mmm!

erm ok ??? i think ????

He's doing well considering the change of surroundings and if he stays I'm sure he will get better the longer we have him as he settles in.

Looking sharp at dummy half and like all good hookers varies his plays between the pass and gaining good yards when he spots a gap and takes the line on.

It looked like he (and a few others) picked up a knock in the London game as he wasn't moving freely at the final whistle but not sure the extent.

So far so good.

thanks faxcar a more comprehensible review than the previous,hope he continues in the same form for you guys,best of luck for the top 4

You can see his inexperience in places, as picks the wrong option, but he appears to be physically and technically there as you would expect. Haven't had chance to see him at halfback, but looked the part at hooker.

Hudd-Shay is expressing his undeniable love of the DR system.



The wrong option The NAT mentioned is correct but probably down to just having a couple of starts and not knowing the plays, it will come if he's here long enough.

First game in the warm up he looked as out of place as the typical guy the first day on the beach having just arrived to somewhere sunny, everyone had a tan and he was the milky bar kid.

see the lad went well today 2 tries against quality opposition,getting better week by week just needs game time which Chester seemed reluctant to give him,big step up but if you dont try you dont know,long may it continue

Yep, looked good today, playing in a team that are firing so makes his job a bit easier. Not a lover of DR as it could scupper us in the next few weeks, Cox looked decent as well.

There's none so blind as those that will not see.
When you have lost your inns, drown your empty selves because you have lost the last of England.

"There's none so blind as those that will not see."

Like seeing us finishing 6th or 7th because we ran out of players until we can get a more permanent fix.

Or not seeing that the problem is, without the temporary fix there won't be a permanent one.

What should we shall we do.



Trust the BOD and RM or not.



We all have the right to decide for ourselves.

I think I'll trust them, well done all the management at the club.

I am no lover of DR, in fact I have spoken against it and how it is a way that the RFL is trying to run a second team on the cheap and trying to establish an Australian style feeder club system.

That said, however, I do believe in a fair and level playing field and if other teams around us are using DR it would put us at a huge disadvantage if we didn't. As it happens RM has used this as a last resort and seems to have been able to use it to our advantage instead of the superleague clubs advantage. Who knows, if we finish this season in 3rd or 4th we might have sufficient funds to have a bigger squad next season thereby not having to rely on DR.

I think 99.9% would agree here-and we know who the .1% is !!

Is there an inevitable danger in this middle that precludes the fair use of DR? What happens if and when we play Hull KR?

See Michael Steeles thread on super 8s he has tried to simplify the complicated process for our benefit.

Just seeing some comments on Twitter, has Connor signed for us ?

What are the comments

HKR tell us who can play and who can't.

"Seems Connor Robinson is been released to sign for Halifax, seems a strange move as thought he had a lot of potential."

Not if this post on page 3 from DAVE K from the HKR Omari Caro thread is true.

To be fair I'm only going on what I have read on Twitter from a few people.

Murdock is a player agent and has a lot of young Hull and Rovers players on his books, so he is probably correct.

Great signing if true, fits in perfect with the brand of rugby we are playing and puts pressure on both the halfs and hookers which is always good.

Looking like a done deal, like others have said this is excellent news.....

Good luck to my mate @ConnorRobbo94 on his fulltime deal at @Halifax_RLFC. Wrong decision by the club to let such a talented young player go

Fingers crossed its true, cracking prospect and already a dam good player
Good for the lad, good for Fax and good for RL that he gets to ply his trade and develop in a first team where hes valued.

Notice the reference to "fulltime deal", might just mean "full contract" but you never know if it does mean fulltime deal there may be more to follow.
