Turning out OK so far. Covered the halves very well and centres also. Seems to be fulfilling the promise Radford saw in him and demanding the ball. Nice one.

Good read that, no suprised that I and others were right about Connor being a good signing and a certain poster was wrong.

Also when are we paying the fee for Connor, that a certain Hudds fan told us we would have too?

Yes. Been another excellent Radford acquisition. A real talent.

Agreed. To get the best out of him he needs to have that right centre spot as his own next year. Connor being on the pitch consistently is as much of an X Factor aspect to our squad as Kelly is.

Indeed. I really hope we keep him beyond next season.

Depending on what happens with Kelly, Connor may have a season at centre and then move to 6 with Sneyd at 7 for 2019.

Sounds like a plan. I do like him at centre though.

I'm disappointed about losing last but then I think of the positives for next season and Connor is definitely one of them! I think he will keep getting better and that is a scary thought

He'd be such a good fullback
Wish we could meld him and Shaul into 1 player. Shaul lack of ball play really hurt us last night

Totally agree. Great hands and some playmaking ability.

At least we have sound cover for 1 and 6

Although, having said that I'd like to see him first choice centre from now on! Still not decided what I make of Griffin at centre

I think connor should definitely be first choice centre, very impressed with his attitude and performances, I do like griffin but have been a bit underwhelmed with him to be honest

Griffin as a centre is one dimensional, just a battering ram, you’d be waiting for a group of monkeys to write the works of Shakespeare before you would see the skill Connor showed for Manu’s try

Connor looks like a world class the last 2 games, think its a no brainer to be honest

Got to give Connor a starting spot at centre or he will be getting offers from elsewhere. Too good to be a squad player.

I thought his role was just as an assistant and part-time for international duties, surely that means he'll still be with the club?

That's my understanding too...

I think he meant losing last night and missed the word out as opposed to losing Andy Last

If i had posted that there would have been an outcry from all the cuddle boys

Didn't you want us to keep HTW instead of signing Connor?

So a thread over a year old is resurrected by Barista in order to points score.

Dave K can then proclaim himself as a profit.

And Wizeb can agree with everything Barista says.

It's all predictable, pointless and boring when used to disparage other posters views based on the there and then.

This reincarnation just epitomises the reason many posters no longer bother posting on here as you get ridiculed for an opposing view to the so called'cuddle crew' and any historical post can be dragged up and used against you just to justify other posters existence.
It causes so many divisions on here and it is like being back at school with the attitude of some.

Here he is. Our second best (arguably best) season in a generation and it's all about me.



Jake Connor has been an excellent signing and showed glimpses of real class again last night in our final game of the season. Why start another thread on him when one existed? If it happened to show some context on views when he signed, so what?



I'm really not sure why you think this is about "scoring points". We all say stuff that we regret - I remember in the 2015 Good Friday derby at 20-0 thinking, maybe saying, that enough was enough with Radford. Look how stupid that was. It's not Orwell's 1984 for goodness sake.



The topic is Jake Connor. Thoughts? Bang average utility player? Real prospect? Quality centre? Halfback/fullback in waiting? Personally, as stated, I really rate him and am worried he gets a West Yorkshire gig for 2019+

Yes I missed out a word in the sentence! Was gutted about Friday but I'm looking forward to seeing how our squad progresses next year

Remember harder. It was 2016!

Don't give the anti-cuddlers room to manoeuvre!

As I posted on another thread, I think even the staunchest of fans, thought that enough was enough, at 20-0, against they who shall not be named but the boys turned it round and the rest is history. We’re all guilty of doubt, it’s human nature. Tit for tat is another trait which we’re all guilty of, both cuddlers and non cuddlers. Time for an amnesty???? Enjoy the close season, 2 passes purchased Monday, can’t wait to use them COYH.
