It's cracking, this.

The 3 Scottish lads that signed up, when do they join us? A friend has just told me she's bumped into some young rugby lads who were "fit" and one was Scottish, She's in East Hull.

Thought maybe it was Dave Scott.

Dave scott.

Come on, Give me some credit. I'm not Blonde.

I haven't seen him, My over excited friend has. I was merely asking if the other 3 were in Hull yet, If not - It can only be Dave Scott, can't it?

Unless we have any other Scottish rugby lads in Hull

So the 3 that recently signed, are they for 2013 or are they here now?

Mentioned the Sirius lot on here the other week.

Some great youngsters coming through, their 3 best players....
1s at KR. 1s at Leeds. 1s at FC.

Heard alot of things about the lad at FC from 1 of my sources about him been paid by FC already (which if im not mistaken isnt allowed) and they want him out in OZ.

Best lad on KRs books from that team is macaulay.

Liam Harris gets alot of good mentions. Hasn't he being asked to train with the 1st team in the 6 week holidays?

Do you know the names of the three best players.

Disappointing to see one is at Leeds though.

Larry, Mo and Curly,

already trained with them in Eater holidays too along with Kieron Moran

How does that work? Is it as good as the Atkins diet?

Sorry no i dont. Hallett is the 1 from Hull KR which imo stands out for us.

Agree its disappointing, more so thay he was the best player on the field aswell

Good news imminent

Like what? Their all under age so cant sign contracts and shouldnt be even spoken to about contracts. Therefore if thats whats imminent were as bad as our neighbours for doing the same thing.

Do you believe that if a club really want a junior to sign they wont do everything they can to make sure they tie the kid down?.... do you think Warrington stay within the 'cap'?... there are rules and there are rules!

And there speaks a voice of experience

And that is whats wrong with the world, "because someone else is doing what they shouldnt we should aswell" . Not good enough of an excuse in my book.

You may be right but, rightly or wrongly, if you want to be the best then you have to be one step ahead of the rest.

Who said that?....the reply highlights your naivety - nothing to do with morals ... that is another story!

I would have thought your Club could do to learn how to cross the 'T's and Dot the 'I's Hutch?

Not naive at all, just people get all high and mighty about things and slag the barcodes or other teams off then in the next comment it proves were just as bad and people disregard it.

Slagging???...... Barcodes????? .........Double Standard!!!!!

I think the Hull FC player is called Tyson-Wilson(?) who is apparently being taken out of the final few weeks of school to go and train in Australia, possibly at Keebra Park where Benji Marshall went but that may be crossed wires. This is being funded by Hull FC and was set up by Gentle and McRae. There are rumours he has been offered a contract at Hull FC that is quite a substantial amount especially for a 15/16yr old. How true this is I could not be sure but rumours are rumours and there is no smoke without fire. I am pretty sure all clubs do it and have loopholes to get them out of any of the smelly stuff! Also if he is 16 then there is nothing wrong with offering him silly money. Horne was playing first team at 16 afterall!

As for Hallett, he is training really well and Sandercock has recently spoken to him about staying with the club and believes he could be a first teamer before his 18th birthday. He trained alongside Withers a few weeks ago and said Withers was amazing, he is also very impressed by Sandercock which bodes well for Rovers if we are to keep these youngsters.

These players are going to be coming together soon at a combined Hull junior side and will benefit from playing alongside each other a lot more. Some may not like the idea of combining the youth teams but if we have the best youngsters playing alongside each other they can only get better and not be held back by the ones that are only there to make up the numbers. Might sound harsh but that is the bottom line of this decision and a very important move if the two Hull clubs are to get the best talent playing in both red and white and black and white.
