Nah. They usually come to our great academy first before heading to Hudds! Flanagan Jr the latest to wander off to the Giants. Although rumour has it, it is for a lovely bit of cash!

Didn't realise he was from the Fax area. Fingers crossed though you can keep producing, need something to eat in to that wall of debt.

One thing I did notice on the replay, clever play by England at the death to stop himself picking up the ball in an offisde position. At that point we were desperate to regain possession and his natural reaction would surely have been to dive on the loose ball.

Think both sides will watch the video back and believe some of those scores should have been defended much better. Great game though, will likely watch the full replay at some point this week.

Attendance was 4,717. Interesting to note that's about the same as Wakefield v Leeds last week.

Haha. I know he isn’t. Just playing on your Giants stealing all the players comment Hull KR and Giants seem to be the main two accumulating our youth players.

Mudoti, Ryan, Milnes, Storton, Wilson, Mellor, O’Brien, Roberts, Butterworth have all gone to either Giants or KR in the past 5/6 years.

Trueman the only one to go elsewhere (Cas). Loads are knocking about the Championship and League 1 though.

Did they pull that number out of a hat? Felt like one of the worst attended games between the 2 teams in recent years.

The problem the Bulls have is that there are about 3000 season tickets sold. So that’s the baseline for any match. But it’s tricky to announce over 3000 fans when sometimes there are obviously fewer than that.

Went to Sydney. Came back to Hull FC. Then went back to Aus with his brother. Owns or runs a couple of cross fit gyms over there now.
