Come on, let's not let 'facts' and 'evidence' get in the way of pious moralising.

Come on guys surely our dour SL competition needs class players like Carney does it not?
The fact that he is now shopping in the bargain basement of SL clubs shouldn't need this uproar from disgruntled Giants fans that feel rejected from previously being rejected a visa for him

It's gonna be a Bitch fight to avoid the middle 8's this season without a doubt and imo there will be 7 clubs involved

Spot on.

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict there will be eight teams in the Middle Eights.

I've given up predicting or hoping that we will be the club to finally turn this type of player around, and I no longer care, all I hope for is that Todd Carney plays great for us with no problems whilst he's here, if he does cause problems he will go the way of Hock/Locke/Chase/Smith etc etc.

Over the last few years we have had some halfbacks that have gone on to other clubs - Holdsworth/SmithM/SmithT/Sneyd/Myler/Robinson/Fages/Ratchford, the only one I wish never left was Ratchford but they all move on so for now I'll take Carney/Dobson and Lui not a bad combo.

One thing I do know is he is unplayable on his day and there isn't a Super League club that he wouldn't be first choice at.

I really thought he'd tear it up when he signed at Cats but whether its injuries or that he's not that good anymore I just don't know. I agree on his day he can be unplayable its just I can't remember the last time he had his day.

Maybe this move will be great for him but I'd not put my mortgage on it.

Reputable news website reports injuries and off field behaviour as reasons for Carney and Taylor leaving. As both played most games then behaviour is a more likely reason.

Carney's past record has been drink / drunkenness and then many anti social behaviours linked to intoxicated states. Serious driving offences and vile behaviour.

Banned by the NRL....we don't need this waster in SL.

Cameron Scott - Bradford to Hull FC

Has been signed into the 1st team squad, so thought I would post it. Rumoured to have a lot of potential

Highly rated by Bradford fans but nothing on our official website confirming his signing.

Probably most sought after junior in country for his age, had everyone after him before resigning for our academy for this year. Hell of a lot of potential hope hes in the right place for him to realise it, thats not saying he isnt just dont know much about your structures but young lads seem to be getting a good chance at Hull now. Good luck to the lad

Mmmmmmmmmmm, that carcass sure taste yummy.

I don't know anything about him if I'm honest but I imagine he'll be down the pecking order and would be surprised if he makes a first team appearance (challenge cup notwithstanding).

We have Griffin and Tuimavave as centres this year, plus the option to play Fonua there. Then the other out and out centre in the squad is Logan, but he's had a pretty wretched time with injury lately. Then you've got Connor, Bower and Rawsthorne (prefer him as a winger from what I've seen) or even Michaels.

So he's down the pecking order, but the cream tends to rise, so if he's got the talent I'm sure he'll get a chance.

Where do you see Connor getting in the side this year? Going to be tough for him I reckon

From reports I've read he's trained at 6 predominantly (second choice behind Kelly), and I expect he'll be adding pressure on Shaul for fullback spot too.

He'd be a pretty useful player to have off the bench, possibly coming into the 17 instead of Washbrook. I reckon he'll play more often than not.

Saw he said he was aiming for 6 shirt. like his attitude don't mind a bit of niggle

I can imagine him getting some game time in the halves on loan at widnes this year... if Kelly performs for FC. He'd be a good fit

Highly unlikely Radders will loan Connor out this season.

Kevin Larroyer (free agent) to Cas Tigers for 2017 with an extra 2 year option. Loaned immediately to Bradford Bulls for initial 1 month period and a 24 hour recall clause after that period. Here :- https://castlefordtigers.com/article.php?id=5252

I'm glad Hull didn't sign him as were well covered in the back row with Ellis, Minichiello, Manu, Washbrook, Hadley, Thompson and Turgut. But pleased that Hull helped him out with training and a game against Donny. Helping him secure a new club.

Looks like Saints are losing Joe Greenwood to the NRL with Zeb Taia coming the other way to Superleague.

After this and Rangi Chase it's beginning to look like Yorkshire-based users of internet message boards aren't quite the crack immigration legal eagles they claim to be.

I hope he goes well for Salford, but I've been saying it ever since he was at the Sharkies, so more than likely it'll end in tears.

But lets pretend he scored the winning try in the G.F. (I said pretend) I would be pleased for both the supporters & Mr Carney in equal measures.

Good Luck.
