Well we might as well shut this place down in the off season then. Can't believe you've logged on to moan about player rumors. All fans do it and all teams have plenty that turn out be rubbish.

I mean seriously, talking about who we might sign in the off season has gone on long since before the internet was around & atm we have a Coach that has said we've got signings to come. It's the off season, nothings happening, so what's the harm.

None whatsoever mate.

To pour more fuel apparently Andrew Fifita has re opened talks with Super League Clubs.

My stats were taken from the Hudds website where it stated he had played 32 games in 2015 and 15 in 2016 season . But it is rather pedantic if we are arguing about 30/ 31/ 32 games . The point I was making was that his stats from where ever point to the fact that he is not injury prone as some were insinuating.

Huby must have missed a couple of games in 2015 because he dislocated his elbow and was rushed back after about a fortnight to play in the Challenge Cup.

That was with Cas in 2014.

Fancy that, rumours on a fans forum. Lighten up man, what do you want from the close season?

Yeah it would be like having JK as your coach. If their was an archetypal UKIP or Corbinite you're it. Blinkered and reactionary but above all daft.

I will stand to be corrected on my comments on Huby and injury problems.

I do recall his wrist injury last year, but was certain he had other niggles on top of that.

I will say though, that in the last few times I saw him play. he did look overweight and out of condition, which is sometimes a telltale sign of a player who is having injury problems. One thing that does concern me on this, is a comment someone put on here regarding him having a chronic back problem. We have just lost someone with one of those, and unfortunately became a bit of a passenger towards the end of his time with us, which was a shame, as I rated Anderson.

I did though in a previous comment regarding Huby, say that I did rate the player, and if he did get some decent form and fitness back, could be a good player for us.

One other point is, wasn't he at one point captain at Cas. If so, then that could be useful, as we need leaders on the pitch.

Exactly. JK - born in Cas, played for Cas but kept Trinity up and sent Cas down as our coach.

He also had some well documented off field problems which affected him. Anyway it will only happen if Huddersfield can first find a replacement.
