Old Frightful Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 29? One for the future then. I would class the next three seasons as being in the future, so yes.

Futtocks Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Andy Powell and Tom Biggs... if this was in the other direction, the press would be calling it a 'flood'.

Padge Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Seems a decent enough signing, if he adjusts quickly then he could be a good asset for Hull.

Tonka Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 32 tries in 127 union appearances. Seems light but that might not be bad in union, I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foozler Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 32 tries in 127 union appearances. Seems light but that might not be bad in union, I dunno. That's not such a bad haul to be fair. I think it was last season (12/13) that the top AP try scorer had 11 tries to his name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled Wiganer Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Never heard of him, but then I was trying to think of a current union player I had heard of, other than the ex leaguies - is there a TUilagi? A Cockerill? A Moody? The timing is good - made the front page of the BBC web site - nice subliminal message. Makes you wonder whether Sally Bolton is pulling the strings for the whole of the sporting world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keighley Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 They lost Briscoe so they need a winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ullman Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I hate that word "solid" when it comes to talking about signed players. Local union playing winger with long blonde hair. He's the new Howard Firth. "I'm from a fishing family. Trawlermen are like pirates with biscuits." - Lucy Beaumont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it only needs one more to be upgraded to defcon 'exodus'. "I'm from a fishing family. Trawlermen are like pirates with biscuits." - Lucy Beaumont.
