Yep. From the bit of the Hudds v Wigan 1st half I've just seen, the intensity, organisation and speed of Huddersfield is miles ahead of what we offered yesterday.

Also he will have a better chance of Rep honours

Also helps when the coach doesn't look like Deputy Dawg and talk like Yogi Bear!

can't blame him, been a good player for the club...but he won't win anything with Agar in charge and will struggle to impress the international selectors also.

no doubt if he does go we'll get fed some spin like "there wasn't enough spare salary cap to retain him" or such rubbish, and we'll sign some old 'big name' has-been.

The back row is our most covered area. I could accept the loss of Tickle providing it resulted in the addition of a player of the same quality but a half or Winger and the retention of Fitz for another year.

Don't blame him if he goes. If Hull have allowed him to talk to other clubs they should say so.

It'll be a big loss. He's consistent, a great goal kicker and has a better than average fitness record.

And of course be prepared to be quoted as saying that Agar is the one and only reason that they have moved to the mighty FC , nothing to do with their age , the their current form or the offer of an extended contract when everyone else would give them from 0 to 1 year. Agar the communicator , the great orator and strategist , hell why wouldn't they come?!!

People need to get real.

Irrespective of what you think of Agar, he is going because he will earn more money there, simple as that. Ken Davy will make sure he's well sorted.

In my opinion, he is a good player and a superb goal kicker but has some flaws that stop him being in the top bracket. I honestly don't think we should be pushing the boat out for him. Now Manu would be different.

I thought Danny wished to move closer to his family at some point last year for personal reasons ?

That was widely reported and Tony Smith confirmed that he had talks with Tickle's agent.

More money, nearer family, better team, miles better coach.

Even as a Hull fan I am struggling to give Danny a reason to stay at Hull.

Good goal kicker, average player, not content at the club and wanted away last season. As the previous poster stated we have to learn how to score try's to kick goals (penalties excluded).

We are well covered in the 2nd's see u later Danny good luck (except against us)

Id be happy to bring in Stephen Wild if Tickle went the other way.

11. Manu
12. Fitgibbon
13. Wild

looks good to me, but then again why would he want to come here? Unless he is going to be pushed away from the first team, but I'm sure he'd have plenty of admirers.

Didn't we try to sign Wild a few years back from Wigan? He wasn't interested then - can't imagine why he would be now.

More likely i'll be Graeme Horne!!

If we lose tickle I think we can cover Within, as long as Fitz stays.

Fitz
Manu
Whiting

with Lauaki and Burnett fighting for the becnch spot, also have Turner and Washbrrok who can play 13.

Kent and Cunnimham to act as back ups.

Wouldn't say no to Wild though.

Wouldn't say no to Wild either but as you've pointed out we would still be strong in the back row and would go with the same 3 as you've mentioned. Over the next couple of years I would like to see us sign a top centre, off half and half back all of really good quality.

Justin Hodges
Rangi Chase/Stephan Ratchford
Chris Sandow

I know Chris Sandow isn't world class but I reckon in a couple of years he could be tempted over here. Definitely got alot of flair to his game.

Think about it for a second......
Hull..........Sydney....... Why would anybody want to leave Sydney to come to Hull to play in the Super League

££££

Same reason everyone else signs for us...........

to play for Agar

I agree with you mate 100%, I even want out of Hull to live in Oz for a while.

But there are always reasons why people come over here. Money, different lifestyle for a couple of years, ambitions people can always be tempted.

<New signing> "I took one look at Hull and thought "hell no!" then Rich phoned me up and we had a good chat. I signed the next day. All I can say is that I hope Rich is true to his word and those photos never get out!"

Try and get Jason Taylor as well for coach, don't think he's got a club at the minute.

We should be going for Stephan Ratchford. Hope he`s a good mate of Jordan Turner.
