Would be disappointed to see Houghton go on loan I want him to play with Berro (3 + 1 option I think). I would release Lee. As for Moa he needs to be given a chance now and looks like he could do it. As you say a character engaging the crowd is a refreshing change. Maloney I like but I'm not sure he is physically big enough for SL prop.

Berrigan is 3 with an option I think, this is what I said on the hooker thread, if they do send him on loan it has to be on the understanding he will be that teams starting hooker, somewhere like cas would be good! Then after a year as a starting 9 he should be in good shape to be ours! Would extend his contract though! Don't want him going somewhere, enjoying it and have him fob us off!

Disagree only on that point. Relatively cheap, can cover 7,9,11,12,13. Not fantastic but has shown a brilliant attitude to come back and deliver adequately as a squad player at this level when he was subject to massive criticism last year. I'm guessing he's being offered more cash elsewhere, in which case good luck to him, but it looks like we're going with a smaller better quality squad next season and I think Lee's versatility and attitude would bring something to the party.

I would keep Lee as well, but money talks.

Think he's done OK this year but for me not the required quality. As you say depending upon cost I suppose he might get a cheap deal with us. If he can get a hooking role at another SL club good luck to him.

I know this is a chat and speculate forum.......But i'd just love to know where everyone gets their sources from







Surley.....the players mentioned aren't locked away in a box and wrapped in cling-film each week so they don't hear anything!!! Although...I suspect Adam Dykes may have been last year. (if only he had been fit for the final eh?)





It would be nice to know that Agar is telling the lads that they are playing for their FC careers.......and meaning it!!! Hull FC have this season, vastly under achieved. We are down to eleventh in the league, no Wembley to look forward to and losing players to injuries again. I think we still can make the play offs.....and hopefully get some recovered and refreshed squad members back to be in with a chance of at least winning a play-off game! (against Hull KR would be pleasent!!!!!

).



To sum up........I don't think discussing who 'WE THINK' is going and who 'MAY BE' staying is healthy for any team members who 'may' log on to RLfans for a sneaky-peek!!!!

WHY TICKLE ,BEEN 1 OF OUR STAND OUT PLAYERS THIS SEASON

So it's



Motu

Thorman

G Horne

Maloney

King

Thacks

Tickle

Hall

Houghton going out on loan



Does that mean Lee's departure to Salford is not happening ?? And does that leave enough room for a "marquee" type signing or are we now looking at just a couple of signings like Turner and Rooney ???

Off field attitude?



Plus we already have a goalkicking 2nd rower signed up for next season, who is far better at the rest of the game too.

Is Hall definately 1 though?



This period out on loan may be the clubs way of furthering his career and preparing him for more of a role next season, much like they did with Wheeldon and Fev a few years back.



Do we really need a "marquee signing"?

YES ANOTHER AUSSIE THATS DRAWING HIS PENSION, AT LEAST TICKLES YOUNG AND ENGLISH

because hes not good enough imo



burnett & fitz in the 2nd row for me next year with manu on the bench
