Official Club Statement Hull Kingston Rovers can confirm that Neville Costigan has resigned from his contract with the club and will remain in Australia for personal reasons. Whilst the club are understandably disappointed with the timing of the decision by Neville not to return for the 2015 season, every effort will now be made to find a suitable replacement in the forwards for Super League XX. http://www.hullkr.co.uk/on-the-pitch/ne ... e-costigan

Pretty big loss, great thread title.

Re: Costi Gone! : Thu Oct 30, 2014 5:27 pm  

Timing is bad but for me, no big loss.

Re: Costi Gone! : Thu Oct 30, 2014 5:54 pm  

most of the KR fans where I work never seemed that impressed with him so I imagine no big loss for you guys and I doubt they will be too concerned, better to give a young prospect the chance to shine, massive overall to your squad this year this could be a challenging year or like Cas last season the real kick on you have needed how do you feel the quad is shaping up ?

Is the 'massive overall' for Mike Smith to wear?

Liking the look of new backiline, need some good recruitment now in the forwards if we want to make the playoffs.

even though i would like to wish the guy all the best in his retirement cos that is what he has decided.. whoever puts on the kr shirt we will support them, we will heckle them when they don't pull there weight we will laugh at them when they do some silly bloopers on the pitch but most of all we will support them. because at the end of the day we are hull kr a family club and were in it together through bad times and good ones.. whoever comes in this season will no doubt be under no illusions it will be a very difficult season. 18 players gone and being replaced.. will take time but i believe we will be in the top 8 and we will shock a few teams next season rally round the robins

Can't say I'm to bothered was pretty solid in defence but for a backrow forward to only get 40 minutes a game out of him wasn't really good enough, but our pack is looking paper thin now and it's pretty concerning and as we have found lately that the imports seem to be taking a bit of time to settle it's pretty worrying the amount of new imports we are going to have all at once next season
