Interesting article in the HDM with Kane Evans further down he states “I used to be a really good runner, but I’ve sort of transitioned into a better defender.
At the moment I’ve been doing some speed training to try and get that balance and get back that explosive running game, it’s not been as good as it was, but just physical and explosive, that’s how I like to play”.

Sounds promising at least.

Don’t know if to read too much into this piece https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/hull-fc-pack-feared-hodgson-6135528 but no mention of Taylor by BH when saying about how Evans will go ‘with Chris, Ligi, Manu & Andre’.

We have, Scott, Walker, Ferria, Barron, Speed, along with Griffin, Carlos and Wynne. We also have Shaul, who i'm guessing is staying.

Taylors done nothing under Hodgson, so is right to exclude him, earn the right to be peaised

I agree
very lucky to be still under contract otherwise he also would have been offered out.
What i cant understand with Taylor is that whilst injured he didnt keep his upper body in shape.
That to me shows lack of interest/professionalism and what does that say to his team mates

And Swift. What I'm saying is that after our first choice back 5 of:
Connor
Swift
Tuimavave
Griffin
McIntosh

We're into youngsters pretty much, sounds like Shaul only wants to play FB.

But never gets a mention, unlike Shaul, who's been criticised since he was on loan at York, hundreds of years ago. https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/r ... ry-6055645

So, players are about to return from a few weeks break and start 14 weeks pre-season training to get fit the new season.
Scott Taylor suffers a serious foot injury which takes 12 weeks before he can start running for the first time in an anti-gravity machine.
And you expect him to be in tip-top condition.
Please don't remind me of his upper body shape, you've mentioned it plenty of times before.
