Please do.....is it the coach's fault, the physios fault or just the fact that signing older players invariably means more injuries ?

What a ridiculous point. For starters we have quota spots free and only 4 overseas players to pick from, and of those we are selecting Maloney over Moa. Every year we bring through players into the first team. Houghton and Briscoe broke into the first team last year, Burnett this. I would suggest the message to our young players is that if they are included in the first team squad, they have a reasonable chance of actually playing a SL game.











Rovers do have the right approach as long as the RFL keep backtracking on overseas qualification rules. Still disappointing that, going into your 4th SL season you've only got 1 player brought through the ranks in that time to show for it.

All of the above, although you do know the average age of FC's squad is lower than Rovers, don't you?

Or as someone pointed out on their board:

only if you listen to Agar, Rule's and Mrs Baristas excuses.

I think you'll find this was and is due to necessity rather than policy

...and we know FC's league position is lower than Rovers, don't you?

Moa? Is he still in the country? Maloney, according to some on Hull Fc's forum, may find himself released at the end of the season, Briscoe, I think is a decent player and Houghton also.



Again though, Hull have plenty of Super League years and the benefits that come with that behind them. I was talking to the father of one of Rovers youth players a week ago, we had a similar conversation about how Rovers have improved in youth development, his answer was it's down to finance, more money, more time, more players and more coming through the ranks. Players coming through might not be as quick as Mrs Barista would like it to be at Craven Park, but I don't think anyone at Rovers will lose any sleep over that matter.



As for the RFL's policy on overseas players, Rovers don't make the rules, just use them to their advantage.

I hope you're not counting Jodie Broughton who was brought in because you like to give youth a chance, by the way how's Craig Hall

This thread is about Scott Taylor.

Just because one sad Hull fan wishes to derail it that will not happen.

Scott deserves lots of credit for earning his contract so the remainder of this thread will be about his playing ability.

Thank You.

You are.

Vey good player is Scott, and from what i have been told has a very good attitude.



Has a great chance to make it in SL if he carries on his progress. Might get a couple of games next year.



I have said it a few times, but will say it again it shows that there is enough talent in Hull for both teams.

First time I've been on this board for a few days and I knew that your childish ramblings would be on this particular thread, about this particular player - you really need to grow up.





Anyway, Scott Taylor, impressed me so far in the reserve games I've seen this season and can only progress under the best second-row pairing in Super League.



There's a good chance that our second-rowers will be rotated in the coming seasons so no doubt Scott will get his chance to impress.
