Decent FB, but not sure he is what you need and worth a quota spot.

Quick, elusive and a good pivot, but a bit dodgy defensively.

Not great at half back, I suppose as a ultity player not a bad signing.

better than connor?

if hes quick then i like that, will add to mamos speed out the back

I think the poster above nailed it, when he likened him to Jordan Turner, he is a decent signing,100% effort and heart on the sleeve, that's why he was well liked by the Hull fans, key is finding his best position, which I think is FB, but he is weak in defensively FB play.

i like that type of player

wont be full back when we have mamo

i can see it being the halves.. to compliment brough / gaskell... maybe hull didnt find his best position in his time there

He had a number of games at both and never really did it in either for me, certainly better at 1 than 6 though.

Hard to say, been impressed with Connor so far at Hull, played really well at centre and mixed performances at 6, needs a run in one position.

Connor has a lot more potential than Rankin.

Jordan Rankin IS on his way to you lot.

He flies out this week.

Has been playing half back for the Tigers all season.

Perhaps there was something in the whisper after all, I hope i hear another one about a forward.
