Totally agree. Think signing a new winger over 30 is always questionable, and Sharp is now potentially another spot in the team sorted with a fed-trained player for 5+ years. We can see from the top sides that team stability is the best way, and buying younger is the only way to do that.

Which is why we MUST identify 6/7 for 2011 season onwards, to learn 2010 season.

I don't think Thurston has much to learn tbh.



Seriously, think we need to get cover, but that's it. Hopefully after Long leaves we can get another top class 7 (probably an Aussie) for 3 years. Then after that hopefully having learnt off Long and this new signing, Williams will be ready.

With Hall going, I think next season there is a strong possibility that, if Turner or Yeaman get injured, then Briscoe would move to centre, and Lyne on the wing. Whiting on the bench.

Last I heard LMS deal was still up in the air, I believe negotiations have and are taking place but nothing sorted yet.

Spot on... Sharp is a good young fella with a great attitude to rugby too, and he is very quick too which is always nice with wingers

gives us plently of pace again on the flanks but i must say i feel sorry for calderwood as he became so unlkucky with injuries huh..
The issue with Meli is that his own valuation of himself far surpassed what value we place on him unfortunately , we wanted him and he wants to come but not on the money he is being offered!!!

One down today, negociations ongoing today may be two by the end of the day!!!!

when you say one down you mean Sharp or someone else?

LMS is going to Saints.

Happy with this signing.As others have said, he's a good young player with plenty of pace and good feet.
Said week's ago that i'd rather sign him than Meli.

Lets hope we can give him some good support...after all he wont be used to having more than 50 fans shouting at him if he fooks up....maybe less if it was a cats/quins game!!!!

Do you actually go to any games and if you do, do you bother watching the action. You talk out of your arris.

Cannot agree with you about his pace. Looked very quick against us a couple of weeks ago . was tjheir best player and deaspite shipping 50 points he was their stand out player.

Nathan Brown was very impressed with him. A good signing for you lot.

Agar has done it again...class signing he must be coach of the year. His vision into the transfer market has every club quaking in their boots. Who will he sign next. got to love this guy

I know and I hear in some games his 3 biggest signings to date don't even have to play for his team to win... that's only against the really poor teams though.

decent winger at a right age to improve.

Classy consructive 3rd post.

Although 99% of that is utter b0ll0x Agar really does seem to have a very good eye for the transfer market so far he has signed some proven quality players in Fitz,Ogre and Long and also some top notch youngsters in Turner,Sharp and to some extent Tansey who only in his early 20s and at the moment is building a strong squad for the future.

The only positions he really needs to sort out are 6 and 7 and i hope he has a plan for that and im sure some of you will no what it is.

I don`t think the thoughts of a red (Pugwash) hold much sway.

Good signing, and also good to see the club continuing to invest in youth.

Can i just ask why have Hull got rid of Hall when Sharpe is known for his defence think its a bit bizzare when Agar is obviously happy to work on one players defence techniques when not Halls do you think Halls face didn't fit...

IMO, Hall's confidence was shot in a Hull shirt and this season he passed the point of being in a fit mental state to ever be a success with us. He strikes me as a player who suffers from pressure rather than thriving on it, which is why I'm doubtful whether a Rovers move would work out any better for him. I think he'd have a better chance at a club like Cas.

Yeah you could be right bout Hall just think Hall prob just needed a bit more support, one good thing rovers are doing at the mo is at university to do with players mental state's, mind over matter or something and maybe confidence building and team building days, you just don't see Hull ever doing it the only team building iv'e seen is luaki helping Manu decorate his house and he didn't luk to impressed to me lol. Maybe it will be wakefield that he will go to they seem keen on him.

Maybe his face didn't fit...maybe it did.
Maybe Agar did work on his defence technique but maybe halls problem was he can't improve.
IMO if people liked him or not his confidence is shot to pieces and a move somewhere else may be what the lad needs.
Personally I think sharp has the ability to improve and pace to boot.
If I was to cast any doubt over sharp I would rather wait until he has at least had a chance to pull his new colours on.

Hall's been at the club for years and played 70+ times for FC's first team. Do you really, seriously, think that over that time no one has spoken to/worked with Hall on his defensive reads and technique? If he does go to Rovers, remember that Morgan has coached your defence so spectacularly that you have 4 of the competition's top 11 players for missed tackles.
