I still cant understand why Thompson wasnt given a run out at centre when we were struggling in that position.He had a decent try scoring record at Cas and would have been worth playing him there imo

I thought this thread was about the possible signing Scott Taylor ?

There is no question about signing Taylor he has agreed a 4 year deal making him one of the highest paid players on Hulls books or so I am lead to believe

It must be for the money certainly wont be to improve his game under the current coach.

Dropped for today's game

According to the Wigan site he is and are giving us a bit of a bashing.

wane's an idiot if he dropped taylor today. Could have been the difference between the win and the loss

Wanes a gob$hite and is getting shown up now that a Green is out.For all the waffle about Wigans production line,where is the Halfback???????

Probably a year away . Williams and Sam Powell could be wigans future

Not seen anything in Powell at all and Williams has been playing hooker......think our 2 coming through are better prospects than those 2

Your not a fan of Powell yet I am. How opinions differ.

What I've seen of Taylor this year, he's looked nothing special, maybe he's dropped him because others have been playing better

Yet I saw a Wigan fan write that he's been dropped for today's game which must mean something about him leaving Wigan, as you can't drop him due to form as he's been great again.

I like the look of Powell tbh and Williams will probably get a run at 6 now with Green out , time will tell I suppose mate .

Speaking of our two does anyone know how Reece dean and Harry Tyson Wilson are playing ? We played giants under 19s today I think

dropped because he wants away asap according to his friends tonight.

Would be great to have Taylor this season although presumably that would depend on the Shannon McDonnell situation.

Well, he was picked in the recent England train on squad and our resident researcher reckons this:



I think he's very good.

This may be wrong but.... I don't believe Shannon counts on the cap this year, as we have not played him. I would suggest we may have already spent that money?

I was told he was dropped because he is joining FC and he toldWayne to stuff it when he was told he was being sent to. Cumbria he said I am injured so I can't play. Don't know how true it is but same guy told me weeks ago he was on his way and how much he was getting

Won't be needing a gum shield anymore then

I believe its 3 years

One of the highest paid players?? Is that wise? Apparently Taylor doesn't want to stay at Wigan and wants to come back to Hull, surely that's a trigger to get him on a reduced salary. We need our highest paid players to be on the park all game, with the ability to change the game, not a prop who's sat on the bench for half of it.

That said, he's a good player and a long term deal keeps him on our books

He made is wish to play for you clear when he was with us, surely this would be an advantage in keeping his contract cost down.

So because he wants to play for us he should be paid less than the going rate?

Pay people what they're worth.

The going rate, yes, not the over the top rates.
