Dave T Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Any good? Haven't seen masses of him if I am honest... http://warringtonwolves.com/hughes-to-join-the-pack-8202 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuffer Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 He looked good against his former club the other day, I'm surprised Hudds didn't try harder to keep him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFussy Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I rate him highly from what I've seen, although that's probably not a lot more than you have Dave. I'm surprised he hasn't hit greater heights given the early hype that surrounded him, he looked like he was a certain future international when he came onto the scene. Still a very good player though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southerner Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I rate him highly, not sure why Wigan let him go tbh. I particularly like the fact that he can play long minutes and that he's very mobile for a forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 We do seem to be loading the squad with back rowers, although there aren't many years left in the likes of Westwood and Grix is an injury risk I suppose. Maybe Currie to centre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuffer Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Hughes has also played at centre for Wigan and Hudds though IIRC so second row might not be TS' intention for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davet Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 One of a few ever presents for the Giants if memory serves me right. Hasn't done much wrong all season and isn't scared of taking the ball in. Presume Giants haven't tried to sign him full time due to the impending arrivals of Ryan Hinchcliffe & Sam Rapira (although both not 2nd rowers).

EastLondonMike Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Always thought he was pretty handy. Good speed and a mobile back rower who gets stuck in.. Makes you wonder what Shaun Wane doesn't like about him. Newham Dockers - Champions 2013.

Ant Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Has good stats, solid in defence and ready to hit the line But just won't pass, number of wasted overlaps when he had Cudjoe with space outside him is just not funny Good, but not great is my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loan Wolf Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Pleased with this signing, perhaps Westwood to prop 2016? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longboard Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Hughes has been pretty good for Hudds this season and he has said he has very much benefited from being played week in week out. I wouldn't be surprised if he continued to develop further if he plays regularly for Wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presume Giants haven't tried to sign him full time due to the impending arrivals of Ryan Hinchcliffe & Sam Rapira (although both not 2nd rowers). I don't know if that is the case but it looks likely that Hudds will be losing Ukuma Ta'ai leaving a back row man probably needed, although he's a different kind of player from Jack. Perhaps it is to do with what Hudds would be prepared to pay, or where Jack wants to live. If Larne Patrick moves to Cas as rumoured & Ta'ai leaves then Hudds should be signing second rowers.....

CiderWire Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 On the few occasions I've seen him play on TV he looked like a hard worker who likes to tackle and is strong when going forward. Looking forward to seeing him in Primrose and Blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back to the future Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Decent signing Are wire going to keep Wheeler ?His injuries seem to have followed him to Wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderWire Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Decent signing Are wire going to keep Wheeler ?His injuries seem to have followed him to Wire With the greatest of respect to the lad I think he would be better off looking at another club.
