EXCLUSIVE: #HullKR chairman Neil Hudgell says prop Mickey Paea has admitted to the club that he has signed for rivals #HullFC.

Is he just trying to cause problems between the player and fans? Idiot

Great news. Paea is a fine replacement for O'Meley.

Seen a stat last week him and Crabtree only forwards to go over 2000metres this yr. Given Crabtree s game time I'd think paea's metres per carry must be way ahead of anybody's!

Best prop in the comp this season. Hope it's true and not grudge sheet stirring

It's The Wail, I'll believe it when Hull FC make a statement

Good point. Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

Hull Daily Mail's back page headline is

"HUDGELL: STOP TAKING THE MICKEY"

He criticises Paea and his agent over their comments this week and says Paea should "come clean" and "show some respect".

Pot, kettle, black

I actually agree with Hudgell for once, I don't see why we need all this smoke and mirrors stuff, if a player wants to move across the city for a better deal at the end of his contract so be it. Its the minority of fans (on both sides of the River) who will boo and insult a player for doing this that causes this kind of situation.

You can feel the hatred of our club in every word that comes out of his mouth. Already trying to devalue the player and claim we're paying over the odds. Not our fault if we can afford to pay a player what he's worth and rovers can't.

Maybe the embittered dwarf should start looking in the mirror for answers as to why players feel that they can't negotiate with him in an open and honest manner.

Brilliant Signing best player in this country available this year and again shows Pearsons determination, as for Hudge, well I'm with Jake I seem to remember back in the Judas days of meetings in local restaurants stage managed by the media with other Clubs players there didn't seem to be much respect or coming clean being shown to anyone.


However all that's in the past, we move on get arguably the best player available at present in the front row and despite the loss of Tickle, O'Meley and Briscoe we are starting with Paea and Miller to be looking stronger next year already. If this is confirmed by our Club well done Pearson he's continuing to be true to his word!

Def true.

Great signing for us if true. Exactly the type of player we need with Ogre leaving and as Wilf says great work by AP to secure his services.

As for Hudgell





I'm sure players are going to rush to play there in the knowledge that things said in private will be released by him either in the local rag or possibly Salthouse Tavern within a few days of the conversation. Karma is indeed in plentiful supply this year

Well Hugell has truly spat his dummy out and turned a professionally dealt with stituation into his usual amateur farce.

He has certainly ensured the boo boys will be out for Pea now which I'm sure is what everybody, except Hugell was trying to avoid.

Welcome to the club Mickey.

Indeed. Some appalling shrouded comments in that article. Wouldn't blame Mickey for walking

Outstanding signing certainly the best prop in this country OOC, his go forward will improve us massively and a great replacement for O Meley.

If confirmed well done to the club.

Not going to comment on Hugell's comment, not worth it.

Why the hell should Paea tell Hudgell his intentions. He let him know that he wasnt staying in plenty of time for them to replace him. Its not like nicking a player mis season is it. The guy is a s@$t stain on the Y fronts of society.

Never the players place to announce anything, the clubs do it.

Poor form, but completely predictable from Hudge.

Looking forward to seeing who Rovers sign from the NRL this year and if they are any good we can sign them the year after.

anyone who is OOC at newcastle and probably not wanted nomore

Excellent signing for us cant wait to see him in a black and white shirt, its ironic that what goes around certainly does come around. Never thought i'd see the day that the mighty dobbins became a feeder club for us

, anyway onwards and upwards. There there grudge how many dummies has been thrown out your pram this season must be nearing a record

Can someone mock up a picture of him in a Hull shirt?
