thundergaz Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Wigan academy player he plays full back or stand off. He as been at saints on a season long loan and at Salford for some part of his career. Salford signed him from wigan i think where they played him at hooker and loaned him to saints for a season not 100% on that but i believe that was the case.Hes more of a utility player I think who can play numerous positions. Don't know much else to be honest but hope this helps a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFussy Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Yep we had him on loan for some of 2013 and he played hooker for us. I think his main asset during that spell was his workrate. If I remember correctly then he could've done with being a bit quicker but he was dependable and certainly didn't do badly. He's not a bad addition as a depth player.

Red John Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Any knowledgeable contributions gratefully accepted. http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-FC-Hooker-Stuart-Howarth-steal-Salford-Red/story-25804318-detail/story.html Salford signed him from Wakefield. He took on the joint role of hooker and fans' scapegoat at Salford. Not particularly sparkling at dummy half and his distribution can be a bit wayward, but he is a hard worker. Not sure hooker is his best position, but that's where he seems to end up. I think he's the kind of player you could play in almost any position and know he'll not win man of the match, but nor will he let you down. A decent squad signing.

PREPOSTEROUS Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Signed for Trinity along with Josh Vievers for the 2011 season just after the ###### fell out of the club. He has some ability but isn't particularly outstanding. A very lightweight player. If he is the level Hull are aiming for they are in bother.

Exiled Wiganer Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 He is a good pro and a good person, with a good rugby brain and a great temperament. He perhaps just lacks exceptional speed/power/skill to be an x factor player, though being quick between the ears can take a player a long way.

RSN Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 He's not athletically gifted enough to make it at the top of the game but his work rate is exceptional and he's very switched on. He's a good squad player, never lets anyone down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Willow Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 He is so slow it's unbelievable, he doesn't have a good rugby brain. Most Salford fans will be glad to get him off the pay roll. He is a utility player but really isn't SL class, he is a frustrating player to watch, he can't pass quickly enough to be anywhere near the play the ball. The only positive I can offer is his work rate which can not be faulted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Toppy Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Huge disappointment when he was at Saints. He was too slow to 'scoot' from dummy half and his passing from there at times was so erratic you never knew where the ball was going to end up (usually on the floor). Could never fault him for effort but he's one of those players who's never going to be SL class i'm afraid. Can't understand why Hull have signed him when they have Whiting to fill that utility role.
