He would only committ to Huddersfield for a year, he will be trying to get a move to Warrington I feel.

Oh worse than West, he was just unlucky. Jones and Cator seem like 2 players on the opposite ends of the spectrum, one keen as mustard, works hard for the team and always puts in 100%, the other seems sulky and self ed, more worried about himself than the team. i know who i would rather have

i get a feeling his back injury might flare up a few days before they play us at the KCOM

I guess carrying that big dummy around with him hasn't helped either !

I always thought the criticism on here was speculative and unfair as nobody knew the full facts. I thought there was a lack of empathy as he was "suffering....." from long covid which must have been dreadful together with his back "injury" which must have been frustrating. However reading FC's perfunctory statement and his lack of acknowledgment to the club and the fans I have changed my opinion. I usually wish any departing player good luck and best wishes for the future but in this case I don't. It appears he played the club like a fiddle.

Could have made it 50 quid

Only worth 1 year deal though

Can also give you cramp in one leg

i understand his wife agreed to Huddersfield but his next move he has to be able to go to training on his bike as she needs the car

From Hull fc lIve Wilf.Sums up what the club thought about him.Short and not so sweet



Hull FC have agreed an undisclosed fee with Huddersfield Giants for the transfer of Josh Jones.
The deal suits all parties and Jones leaves the club with immediate effect.

I wonder if your constant abuse over the last 9 months influenced him in any way?

(You're not the only one, but today has been a good reminder.)

The ‘abuse’ only started when it became obvious he was looking to get out of his contract in a very very underhanded way by using a positive covid test as a excuse to stop going to training and then getting stricken with a mystery back injury.

Crikey, it gets worse, you couldn't make it up.

Clueless







I am talking about the ‘lingering effects’ which couldn’t be confirmed by the club

So he didn't suffer serious after effects after contracting covid, you obviously know best, or maybe you're just in denial, after a comment like that.

As I put in my edited post the ‘lingering effects’ couldn’t be confirmed by the club despite their best attempts to get him to County Road.

Will be interesting to see how he performs against you guy's now

Yorkshire Post ......

constant abuse over 9 months
he only played 8 games

That didn't stop you.

“We’re hoping he can be in and around the training environment maybe the early part of next week and then he’ll have to follow the return to play. But that’s a suck it and see – there’s no real concrete timeframe on that for us or Josh.”

Also from the Yorkshire Post actually the same article you quoted. Does Last saying he hasn’t been around the training environment prove exactly what I said that his ‘lingering effects’ couldn’t be confirmed by the club ?

YP again......



And it was certainly reported that he was back in training when picked for the 21 man squads later in the season.

Having watched Jones play at 13 for Bennett ,when he joined Hull I thought he would end up there. I said then that he reminded me so much of Greg Eastwood, the Kiwi international lock, both physically and in playing ability. Good luck to him in his future career.

I recently received a montage of family photos from one of my nieces in Hull including one featuring Joe Cator. Turns out she is related via her dad's sister.
