Eddie Battye as the middle. M62 name and an old fashioned physique.

In all seriousness I think he would be a shrewd signing and good enough to start in the 17.

I think Eddie Battye is still contracted to London, Wakey fans seem to rate him.

It’s seems quiet on the Jones front in terms of any deal with Huddersfield or anyone in general which is surprising. Thought he’d have been a big signing for Huddersfield by now with Watson going in there or Wire as a replacement for BMM. Hope the club get something back in terms of a fee when he does go.
Maybe clubs can’t afford or are prepared to take on his wage and he isn’t prepared to take a cut, who knows.
Covid or not his attitude to the club and team has been disappointing and certainly doesn’t fit with the environment the BH wants.
He’ll certainly be a player well remember by the faithful but for the wrong reasons.

Is Battye any better than Bowden and Fash, I've never seen anything in him to say so.

I'd certainly rather play Brown than him.

We should be looking at better, either someone to improve the 17 or a younger player to add depth.

Huddersfield didn’t rush announcing Watson, and it’s probably the same method with their predicted capture of Josh Jones, with Ken Davy, they have an owner with wealth, and seemingly now he’s prepared to back Huddersfield with signings. He seems more determined than ever.

Hull fans are hungry for any inclination of news and signings, our forum, and Facebook are full of rumours and gossip, yet the Huddersfield forum, no disrespect intended, is almost lifeless in such exciting times for them.

Josh unless he’s done a u turn, will be announced in a blaze of mediocrity,

Aaron Bower has said he's signed, he's usually on the nose. Maybe they need to generate some cap space. Matagi and Turner have joined Cas, they're trying to offload Gavet too.

Great summing up of the difference between the fan bases!

Yeh as many people within the game said privately at the time, considering his ultimate NRL ambitions, which he hasn't made a secret, Huddersfield is probably a lot less of a risk for Watson, pressure wise, compared with us, .

I don't expect any more signings to be anything to be excited about. I think it will be a young back and forward.

Ashall Bolt will be one I think.

Is he the one that kept playing with a broken hand ?

Oh, really?

Sorry mate, was that from you, thought I read it on twitter

I believe his name is Ollie Ashall-BOTT, but I understand that he is fast, so maybe a freudian slip!

I'm surprised Bonaire hasn't told us how much pace Reynolds has (or hasn't), it's been his pet subject for some time now.



Maybe he hasn't seen the announcement of his signing.

Anyway, in short, he's a big mate of the coach, and is confident he'll rekindle his love of the game

Only kidding, but I'm surprised the usual suspects haven't brought the subject up!

I love Josh already. Think he'll be an absolute fans' favourite. Really engaging, humble, full of energy. Love him.

I agree with you!!!

He seems a great guy. Genuine and full of enthusiasm, can't wait to watch him get stuck in.

Your not getting Josh mixed up with Burt, are you Mrs B

Sorry Steve Norton, just seen your post. I can remember Terry being a terrific tackler, and I know he was substituted on occasions with concussion, but he was always back the next week for us.

Think Casey was the coach, that’s quite a while back now.

Yeh Casey was coach and got sacked during Terry Regan's tenure at the Club. Great player under a crap coach. Remember those games when we were beaten by Halifax after the 0-0 draw and subsequent replay in that epic Cup semi final. The man was a machine. He played 25 games for us but what a memory, the bloke was an absolute tank and as hard as nails, he didn't know the meaning of the word injuries and just played on every time. What a great memory!

Didn’t we have another Australian half flown back for that replay Wilf, the late Scotty Gale.

Brooks and Regan must have been the toughest second row combination we’ve had.

Remember being gutted after the Halifax semis. In hindsight I’m glad we didn’t face that Wigan team on a big Wembley pitch.

Its funny what you remember when you get old(er) I immediately remembered that Regan got man off the match in the first game but in the replay could only remember that after he has grabbed a drop goal and penalty the Fc Faithful sang, "He's fat he's Round he's worth a million pounds, Gary Pearce, Gary Pearce" before we lost 4-3 to a flukey Halifax try near the end.
