Been told the same. Looks like a great move by Hull.

Admittedly I have not seen him play this season so I can only judge him at fulback from what I saw of him at Leeds.

Think that's all but certain given recent statements from Rule and the way recruitment has been undertaken. Let's hope he can step up a level or two when he has his 'own' team.
Or maybe the main problem has been the players after all and that's now being rectified...

| Quote ="goldyfc08"cusack's our best prop,
and thackary is poor? ha!'"
Cusack:
- plays lots of minutes in a game
- very good defender
- will work hard all day long
- strong runner (not impact type, but doesnt take a backwards step type)
- he seems like a good leader to me
Thackray:
- poor defender
- lacks impact nowadays
- dont get too much game time out of him, which would be O.K if he still had impact but he doesnt
- inconsistant with the effort he puts in
The only thing Thackray has over Cusack imo is pace

TBF Cusack has been our best prop for 2 seasons now, but i wouldnt say Thacks is poor. He brings more to the side than King, Maloney or Moa currently.

I'd agree he brings more than King at the moment, but I'm not a fan of King at all. I thought that Maloney looked better than Thackray in the games they played alongside each other, I'm suprised he was dropped. I think its hard to say with Moa because he hasnt been used much so far. I'm suprised that he pnly plays 15 minutes for the 1st team yet can put in mamouth spells in the reserves.

| Quote ="PAUL M"Luauki.'"
Would still love a 2nd impact prop. Maybe if Moa develops he would be the answer. Maybe not, who knows as he never gets the game time.
If Radford is to play next season i feel he must play prop, meaning Dowes and Radford to start and Lauaki and Moa/new impact prop to be the answer.
Could be Lauaki and Thacks if we keep him. Thats not a 4 props to rotate.
FWIW i dont think we are weak in the props anyway, we play them for too long and use one as a loose forward with no scrum half which is what lets us down for me.

We could be signing another prop anyway so it's all up in the air. Radford might well leave to go to RU as I mentioned earlier in the year?

| Good signing in terms of versatility, but id be worried if he was signed as your new centre.

He starts / started his well paid coaching job at Hull RU and signed a 1 year extension with us in the last couple of months so doubt he will be going anywhere!

Backed up by Gary Hetherington...

Fingers crossed he hasn't been brought in to be a replacement for Tony though.

That would be the live, continuously monitored Salary Cap, would it? You know - the one where the RFL won't sanction a signing if it would take you over?
That Salary Cap?
