He wont have time to admire the stands, he'll be too busy tearing your pack a new one!

Good lad is Scott and always thought he would be a top player, be amazed if Rovers don't tie him on a long term deal, all this he supports Hull/Rovers doesn't matter as much these days, players will go were they feel more comfy, play with their friends from junior clubs, who offers the best package and were there feel they have the best chance of a break through. Taylor made a good move as if he was at Hull, I doubt he would have played as many first team games as he has now due to the previous coach.

Good to see both clubs giving young players a chance, young Bowden is coming on nicely at Hull and would expect at least two other players to get their debut this year (Crooks and Green).

Plenty of talent in the city for both teams if they are looked after.

The standard of trolling has hit a new low on this thread.

To be fair, there are lots of young trolls in the fair city of Hull. Easily enough for both clubs. In future years I'd expect us to field a full board of home grown trolls.

tee-hee...





...hee-hee.

Producing players is only half the battle, you've got to be able to keep 'em. Or, without wishing to be disrespectful (especially ahead of our next fixture), you end up like Cas - admired, patronised and struggling.

Taylor was awesome yesterday, really give it to a very good Hudds pack.

Scott Taylor used to be a season pass holder as a kid do I think that makes him a rovers supporter it's cox that's the hull fan and Taylor since he came through our academy has been great it has to be said we have to have the best acadamey in the city in recent years

Seriously, a local lad playing in the Super League at his age, is a great achievement.



Good Luck to him, I hope he has a good career and makes it to the internatioanl stage.

Get him signed for a 10 year deal, increase in wages after every year if he keeps up his form and plays so many games, that way you keep him hungry, he will be a future england international without a doubt, we will regret this if we dont sign him long term, give him clinton's wages now and I bet he will fire even more!

I don't think Clinton will agree to Taylor having all his money.

Rumour on the FC board that Taylor is joining us (Leeds) any of you guys heard this rumour?

The rumours been circulating for some time now but it is baloney.

Scott is contracted to Rovers until the end of 2013. He is more than happy at Rovers.

Pick a new source for your rumours, More truth to be found in the Sun.

Haha.

looks like we got a great player then lol

You waited 3 years just to type that?

been a long time coming, but we on the darkside like a long wait

Nah, just Taylor.

He is a good player, a very good player, I'd have massively liked to have kept him.

But, the kid wanted away, he's still young but whoever his manager is, he's knacked about four years of his career, he should be an International regular by now and having NRL clubs coming on a biscuit to sign him.

Instead, he's signed for a club on a par with the one he left in 2012, or whenever it was, human Calender's mean nothing to me.

He got homesick in wigan so the NRL was a non starter.

We know, everyone knows, is he furthering his career?
No.

Don't know the full ins and outs with him and Wigan but he looks to have hampered what could have been a great international career. He's let his progression stagnate for a couple of years when he should have kicked on and made a real mark. Players don't leave wigan, they're let go. If homesickness is the reason then he needs to give his head a bang and grow a pair. Short career and you really need to make the most of it and this move shouts big fish small pond syndrome.

Tbf, people want different things from life. And he's won one more Championship and Challenge Cup double than Rovers and Hull combined.

If it was a very good player and Rovers fan leaving Leeds or Wigan to come to Rovers, I'd be delighted at one of ours coming home to play for his club. Win a trophy for Wigan... Well that's your job. Win a trophy for a KuH club and you're pretty much a local ledgend.



Despite the silverware, he's not quite kicked on to deliver on some of the more optimistic predictions made in this thread three years ago. But he's still got time on his side and is a potentially excellent signing for Hull. Would have stung 3 years ago, but having known for that long...

I often look at this as if it was my son what would my advice be. Going to Wigan was a no brainer, win things and get more chance of national coverage than at HKR. If he was at Wigan and rovers asked for him back I'd tell him to not bother, stick at it where you are, move to Oz for a couple of years come back later in your career. Lets be honest neither us nor Hull are going to challenge for the top any time soon.

Is the homesick at Wigan thing a wind up?
