We're well covered for back rowers next season and he'll be on a reasonable wedge. I'd let him go if family reasons mean he'll go after next season anyway. The cap space could be more effective elsewhere

Don't disagree if he wants to go but I wouldn't want him to leave on the basis of his performance because I think he has produced when compared to others.

He is a p1ss head though

Yes but with his main sidekick gone this may change.

Just hope that Lauaki does not introduce him to Kava

With Berrigan there u gotta be joking

so u went in then come on baldy what did u buy!!!!

Let's set our expectations. Hull will be a better side with these players gone, so I'm glad. Time for a clean start. For me, if Tickle does not knuckle down, stop whinging and sneering and stops trying to manage the team, he may return to the form of a couple of years ago where he could have progressed to the England 2nd row. But if Agar and the board don;t believe he will, no loss there also. My main point in this post is though - YES, some of these players will come back to bite us. This move will cause them to re-focus, and some will thrive in a new team. Carvell would not have the attitude and drive he has today, at Hull. He's gone stale. So when some of these (and Lee, Horne may be candidates) thrive, let's not blame Agar and the Board for getting rid, their time at Hull is over, both parties need a new future. As I advised my mate Peter the other night, your wife Jordan may well make a great wife for someone else mate, but she'll always been a Sl#t with you - you're better apart. He went to his guitar to reflect.............. today, we should all feel like Andre', and focus on the next date [Here endeth the lesson (c) Melton's Bottom 2009

does this mean if Paul King fails to find a club he'll still be a hull player next season?

Will they come back to bite us though? I can honesty say that the thought of Tommy Lee, Graeme Horne etc facing us with new clubs does not fill me with dread.

Aye, hes top of one of the SL stats lists too

Personally dont see why alot of people want tickle to go . Good kicker and runs good lines , burnett will be good but still think tickle is better dont see the thing about rushing the younger players

missed tackles

Not suprising seeing as he's played in every game for the full 80 mins this season.

so have many others thi season, but he has missed alot of tackles, i was just stating a fact on his current stats

During a stadium tour on friday night , we were told by a club official that 11 of this seasons squad would not be here next year . Even including Crocker , that's still one more to come by my reckoning ?

Interesting article on Todd Byrne [url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/2859495/Postcard-from-Tel-Avivhere[/url saying what he has been up to since his op.

Wigan fans over here have been telling me that Tickle is off to Celtic for next season not Wire although as a previous poster has mentioned he has had talks with them.
Wonder if he's got his visa sorted to play in Wales.

Thanks for posting that - good to hear what he's been up to. Obviously an intelligent guy with plenty of options which is good to hear. The main unanswered question is how he managed to pull his girlfriend with his legendary dress sense.

Glad to see he is on the road to recovery and wish him well in trying to resume his career

Yes, it's difficult to imagine Thacks or Kingy saying:

What, no trolling?
