Be good if we can get him before the end of the year also.

Watts has plenty of talent, a big lad with a good offload and got some big raps when he first came into the side. He got into trouble off the pitch and as a result has fallen out of favour. At 21 he has plenty of time to get his career back on track. Maybe the change of clubs will do him good. Tickle went though something similar before joining Hull from Wigan. I would imagine he wouldn't be too expensive and could be a good addition. If Gentle fancies him then I would trust him to get it right.

And that's only if he meant his contract was worth a million dollars in total. Given that he still got an NRL deal, he could well have been meaning that the Hull contract was worth $1m more than he'd earn in the NRL, so actually even more than that.

Fair enough, but completely different kettle of fish. SL-based players not playing SOO doesn't necessarily have anything to do with whether or not they are good any more.

I'd love to see Scott taylor at fc but that would be a right slap in the face for hudgel and the dobbins fans so I can see them going over board on his contract just to keep him even tho they are skint

Not a rumour but a bit of an update on Gaz Ellis ...

Yeah then we can bin the fat convict off

You mean in the same way you couldn't wait to get rid of Cockayne?

When did Cockayne play for you?

lets be fair he was a pratt and nothing more really and who as a young fella didnt do daft stuff, however as a player he has always been a young fella most true fans have admired and shows plently of potential and as a forward is still in kindergarten really isnt he, loads of miles to go for that young man and hopefully given a fresh start he will excel

Also think if the rumours are true that Elima would be an awesome signing for a few reasons
he, el capitano, ticks and ellis will provide the old head and calming influence
elima is certainly a hard case and takes no steps backwards, will replace fattys biff in the pack
great hands
fairly fast for a big dude
fits the experienced bill for me
with Elima, Ellis and captain in the pack alongside young guns chamffing at the bit the pack would look really good IMO

Elima may be many things but a 'calming influence' he isn't.

watts if he gets his head down looks a very good signing, the bricks are being layed for next year very nicely

True, but I do think he is a good player and I'm surprised there hasn't been a bit more enthusiasm for his possibly signing for Hull FC.

Sorry I meant in a "old head experienced" sort of way where he leads from the front however i agree he is not calming

but will add massive amounts of grunt to our pack
he is a fearsome player thats for sure

agree with you there, he would be a cracking signing for us , top drawer player in every sense

Where have I said that he has played for us. My comment was about the tolerance you lot showed to Cockayne who's sinned far more than Watts.

watts is just a daft young lad with local fame piled on his shoulders, typical young man with dosh, however the best part of Cockend ran down his mums legs

You do realise Sebasteeno is a Hull fan?

seb doesn't so why shouldn't HR?

Ferk me , the quote of the day has just been upstaged by the new quote of the day

No I didn't but I now realise he was actually talking about our Ozzie friend.

It was good while it lasted haha

Yet your comment was aimed at one of your own fans:

Keep up Stan.
