I have said a few times lets give Liam Watts some game time even if it is from the bench IMO he is better now than Mills will ever be.

Don't get me wrong i like Liam Watts and think he has a big future but what i've seen of him this season in the reserves he hasn't been that good. I am though prepared to say its more down to the poor quality of the reserve grade and the players around him more than anything else but to say he is better now than David Mills is way off the mark.

We missed out on this one

fc were interested in gilmour a few seasons ago, the reason he chose not to move to hull was the location, i guess some players just don't want to up sticks and move east

Good move for Gilmour and a good signing for Hudds. He's not the sort of player we need, though.

Id have taken him in a shot.
Good signing for Hudds.
The relocation point is a good one, some players just dont fancy living round this way.

Big, fast, hard as nails, knows where the try line is and is used to winning.

see what you mean, why the hell would we want such a player

Good signing for Huddersfield. I think JM's comments about Mannering not being the sort of player we need (in terms of position, not quality!) apply to Gilmour too.
If the net change to the squad is a hooker-cum-halfback in for a prop leaving, I think we will have a good balance.
