I think it was Peter Sharp who let Brough and Briscoe go. Terrible decisions in my opinion.
He was the only person who thought that Tony was a better full back than Briscoe when Briscoe was clearly a better full back and Motu Tony was a very talented player who could play almost anywhere. If we had kept both these players - and if Motu had stayed fit - we would not have had the problems covering the full back and half back positions that we have had since and we would have had the flexibility of players rotating between hooker and half back that is very much in the mould of the current Huddersfield and Warrington squads.
As for Lee, not sure who the coach was when he left, but I always got the impression that he was playing to orders and not allowed to play to his instincts.

No he wasn't.

Definatley wasn't!

Carvell and Brough are the two I would still want.

Danny Brough has really developed into a top quality Super League scrum half and fair play to him for that. The drop to the national league with Cas seemed to rejuvenate and spur him on to bigger and better and I am pleased he is in the England squad.

Carvell is a funny one because although he is a quality prop forward I always remember him as been a bit of a sicknote and rarely fit during his time at Hull.

Maybe a bit harsh.

I always thought Brough had the game in him. Carvell was great for us when he was fit, he did have a few injuries but his performances were always very good.

There was an interview with Carvell in this week's League Express.

He said he regretted the manner of his leaving Hull. He accepts he made a mistake messing the club around and not making a definite decsion earlier. He praises the Hull fans too.

And Colin Best too, still got it.

Although i was disapointed to see him go i didnt really have no beef about him leaving and who could blame him..he said it was to win trophys when a lot of our fans thought it was just for the money...i think he was proved right on that one and more then likely abit of extra dosh in his pocket aswell!

One of the best props weve had in my 20 odd years supporting hull IMO

IMO Danny Brough and Graeme Horne are the only players mentioned who have done far better than I personally expected since they left FC.

It is probably no co-incidence that both are now at Huddersfield playing under an exceptional coach (and no that is not a criticism of Agar).

Also all credit to Kirk Dixon who has done well at Cas.

These things happen. We picked up Carvell, Raynor and Dowes from Leeds for nothing, two went on to play for GB and all three were part of our 2005 Challenge Cup and 2006 GF teams.

It happens in all sports, some you win and some you lose.

Think if we could of kept Carvel we would, but agree with Brough and Briscoe the rest are all preforming well for lesser SL sides, although i think letting Craig Hall go will come back to haunt us ...

Already dropped by Rovers even though they need a goalkicker.

Just heard about Hally being droppped. Makes absolutely no sense.

I don't know if he a had bad game at Saints last week (haven't heard or read anything either way tbh) but prior to that Rovers fans tell me he's been the 2nd best player this season (behind Blake Green)

Bang goes his confidence. Silly waste when he was doing well. They'll have to coax it back painstakingly. Could take months and a spell on loan, bless him.

Is he in the gang?

it was never the players problems who left inept coaching and management decisions have ruined the club imo its amazing we can sign anybody under the age of 30

We said the same

Another childhood rovers fan gets chewed up and spit out by the Morgan machine.

Well it is there own faults Dave, if they are not prepared to be diverse and embrace a new language, I mean it is not that hard...Woman= Sheila......Hello = Good day mate

I believe they were willing to embrace it, just that Clint and Ben wouldn't let them go and stand near them to be in that gang!

look back at afew seasons when shaun briscoe was with fc he was our best player at the time and peter sharp also drop him

He was in the wrong place a couple of times against Hudds in the defensive line which cost them tries but that's the only time I've seen him so can't really comment. Suppose if he did it again last week then fair enough but does seem strange with his goal kicking ability being required.

Maybe its his revolving door style of defence?

Watched him against Huddersfield. Was left floundering time and again.
