IF we sign Taylor to play alongside Watts with Lynch and a.n.other then I think we'll be OK, we will miss Moa, that is for certain.

Agent Holdsworth missed 2 crucial kicks for goal

Agree with this especially the first sentence, be a bit disappointed if its instead of chase wouldn't be unhappy with holdsworth though.

Chase is crucial imo. We could sign another top half to go with Holdsworth but Chase has that bit of magic and will excite the fans.

As for props Lynch, Watts, Kite and one other ? plus Bowden.

You confident over Kite?

It will take some serious legal challenge to get Chase a visa to play for FC, I'm not ruling it out, but I am not holding my breath.

I am.

I won't be if it's a 3 year deal.

Heard for a while it's done but nothing concrete.

I think the only way we won't get Chase (who is now 'conveniently' injured anyway) is if our perceived time frame or deadline for signing him runs out before we get a visa or if he gets his visa refused. We don't want to hang around so long that we miss out on other targets and yet we don't want to be hasty and miss out on chase, its a tough call. Lots of rumours about this morning that the deal for Holdsworth was sorted yesterday after the game don't know if its true though, you always get that sort of stuff I guess!

Holdsworth is part of the picture but we do need another H/B, be it Chase or someone else.

I think Holdsworth and Chase would go well together. Holdsworth and Brough perhaps less so.

Chris Green has said that he's currently in contract discussions with the club.

Scott Taylor signed for Leeds. Deal was never on the cards for him to come here as he didnt want to put his family in a situation where they could be abused. His kids at school etc i guess.

that sounds like complete , the Cooke situation was entirely different and would not happen ordinarily

Hudgell would not sell him to us. He was told he could sign for another club or see out his contract.

Who is?

Grudgell isn't in a position to pick and choose, they need cash and quickly. Wait and see I guess.

I think you are confusing the Grudge with a sensible, rational businessman rather than an embittered, obsessed fan.

true, apologies

I wound't trust him to run a bath.

The irony is that he has made a lot of money out of his law firm but logic seems to go out of the window when it comes to Rovers and Hull.

he's made a lot of money out of other people's misfortune, he's a parasite.

I purposely watched Holdsworth closely yesterday due to past rumours, I liked what I saw and will be more than happy with him, very good organizer and a good boot on him.

Who is the so called big money name from the NRL we are supposed to be nailed on for ?
Why do supporters get so wrapped up in players off field antics ? If we won SL or event the Challange cup would we really care what they did off field. All im bothered about is what they do during that 80 minutes on the field. So people I feel live in glass houses as am sure there lives aint so perfect

Spot on Bet. There was certainly more coming from their halves than there was from ours.

Holdsworth and Chase would be a great pairing. DH working at first receiver and organising and Chase working his magic with a bit of space. By all accounts the club are doing their up most too make sure Chase comes here, and would already be here if it wasn't for the red tape issues. I honestly believe that if we don't get him then it will be because of issues that are out of our hands. Why would we sign Holdsworth instead of Chase now?
