Signed till 2027 and looks like what I was told is true and he is currently our player who we are loaning to Hull as he is available to play for us for rest of the 2024 season once his Hull commitments end.

Cracking thinking given our issues in the halves.

Available from 21st September. That would about make him available for the playoffs (if needed). Though if Gale is available I think I’d stick with Gale and Max for continuity.

Regardless, I’m actually happy with this. If he can find his feet and some form it could really add to the team. He will certainly get one of the best conditioning and training in any level of rugby league looking at how fit our players have been this season.

That doesn't make sense. If we've signed him he'd be with us now. Hull don't need him and we do.
Apart from the fact he's injured anyway.

I'm pleased with him signing. Quality player. Rehab team just need to keep him fit.

Not sure I'd risk him but if he's genuinely fit it would be a nice boost for playoffs.

It might not make sense on face value but he must have signed before the deadline to be able to play for us, at that time although only speculating Hull may have been is a position to still get up the league to 6th or more.

He has worked with DP before and possibly could be more ready to slot into the team if needed

Still don't think we'd loan him back. Just think we'd sign him for end of Hull season.

But I have no idea. Just my conclusion

It may not make sense but he’s been a registered Trinity player for some time now if he is available to play for us in 2024.

A very talented player without a doubt,But his injury record in recent years isn't good at all.
He has also been on good salaries too at both Cas and Hull FC.
Let's hope that he will finally fulfill his undoubted talents next season at Wakey and remain injury free.

I'm looking forward to visiting the revamped stadium next season as it looks fabulous and things are definitely looking very good for the club moving forward

We must be loaning him back or we are breaking the rules re registering a player after the August deadline. It was probably part of the deal, lets not forget he was under contract for next year.

Hmm you make a good point.

The replies from FC fans on social media doesn’t exactly refute the suggestion of a toxic fan base. Just wish the player well and end it there.

It's not the happiest of fan bases right now. Although I will point out the same thing as I did on our board, that social media isn't exactly a hotbed of reasoned debate and shouldn't be taken as representative of anything really.

For my part, I wish him well and hope his luck with injuries turns. He's been decent for us but he's only played 26 games in 2 years so I can understand why we've let him go. Not that we seem to have a replacement lined up though


I look forward to watching FC get a pasting of Wakey next year

As a supporter of Hull for over sixty five years and more, I have attended many games home and away, many times at Wakey, very rarely seen trouble on the terraces, were real fans contribute, occasionally it has occurred, last time as I posted was a few years back, minor alcohol related stupidity.

Our supporters as duff as our team has been for a decade or more, usually help the coffers of all our opponents with much needed revenue, the guys I travel with are responsible respectful people who take their children and grandchildren with them, long suffering we may be, noisy and supportive most certainly, toxic, get a grip man.

A lot of these internet mindless comments are probably from rogue interlopers who suit their own agenda, and love the hate, this old faithful wishes Truey and Scott all the very best for their efforts over the years and good luck to them at Wakey, probably keeping their own council on social media would be an astute move for young professionals.

And as all at Hull say farewell to these two, a special player of ours Danny Houghton closes in on 450 appearances with never a hint of toxicity, just an ambassador for our great game.

Watching FC totally capitulate against Leeds last night, I hope Trueman has enough gumption to stay on the injured list until their season ends. Why rush himself back to play with a rabble that look like they're already on their holidays? In his interview after Trueman signed Powell more or less said he wouldn't feature for us unless it was an emergency. Better to take as long as possible with this injury and then comes for pre season training

Well put, I remember back in the Pearman days a bus full of FC fans came over to offer us support after we were deducted points, there aren’t many supporters of other clubs that would go out of their way to book a bus and spend n afternoon supporting an other club. And because of that I’ve always had respect for Hull FC fans.

It makes complete sense!
If the option to have him available at Play Off time was there we would have been fools not to take it.

Imagine if we lose Max Jowitt to injury and don’t get Gale or Lino back in time, how stupid would it have been not to take the option of Trueman being available.

Great forward thinking by the club even if we don’t need to use him till next season

Agreed. There is no negative to this.

You are replying to a post I made before it was announced. Of course I get it now I realise the transfer window was a factor.

A rabble, or a team relying on to many young kids and journeymen to help us complete a nightmare of a season, shall we deduct Jakes last two games out of his contract for feigning injury as you suggest, or maybe you’ll personally donate it for him.

Teams end up good or bad depending on management decisions, never the supporters, so why should we penalise the faithful by decrying players to honour contracts if they are deemed fit. What kind of principles do you live by.

I'm pretty sure Dreadnought isn't the one making the decision so not sure why you are having a dig.
He's available to play but Grix himself says he's unlikely to play him......maybe you should share your thoughts with him.

“ I hope Trueman has the gumption to stay on the injured list, till their season ends, pretty much sums up my reason PT.

Hull fans. I remember when Kevin Harkin had the weavers in Ossett (my local then) and even in the late 90s / early 00s, well after he had retired, a bus load of hull fans would turn up on game day in Wakefield to support their old hero.

All I’ve met a great set for me, and always been treated how I would expect to be myself (which is good haha)
