Maybe you're right, JP couldn't bully him into a good lad.

Do the shark trolls now believe Kelly to be a disciplined genius. They weren't posting that after the last derby.

He can do incredible things on a rugby pitch and could/should be one of the best players of his generation. He isn't because he's a buffoon.

Looks like he'll sign for the Sharks. Will be fabulous to start with and if the forwards go as well again he'll be devastating. Could even win you a trophy. He'll get injured or the off season will come and he'll revert to type. Que sacking for the 4th-5th time.

I'd take that, if he helps us win another trophy.

I don't see the downside for Hull, If he plays like he can he will improve us massively, if he doesn't behave, we get rid and have decent cover for him.

I know he's a bit of a mongrel but you just can't have him put down if he turns bandit again, it was a blessing in disguise rovers were relegated didn't cost any money to have a clear out.
If FC sign him on anything over a year they want there bumps read, he will do it again it's a ploy to get money for nothing he does it where ever he goes, known fact

Forgive me if I don't take your predictions seriously given this beauty from pre-season

Ok.
Yes Taylor had the option of a career at Wigan and challenging for trophies every year....instead he hit the buffet and they got rid. Too much like hard work year on year for him.
Watts really was better last year but we'll see. It won't last he's an oaf.
You'll finish 6th-10th.
Catalan Wigan Leeds Saints Cas Warrington will all be above you. The rest is a dog fight.
Oh and let's not discuss Taylor and Watts international careers. For Taylor in the reckoning then chucked his chances...see above.
Watts called up.....sent home from training before he pulled a shirt on due to his professional behaviour.

Wow, a move to the dark side...wonder what odds you'd have got on that?

I'm not a betting man, but I'd wager Kelly had sealed his own fate before he came back.

I don't think it's a ploy. I don't think he's smart enough to come up with that as a money making scheme. He's just an idiot but he's not the first talented sportsman with an inbuilt desire to self destruct and he won't be the last. Plenty of "told you so" mileage in this for rovers fans if we do sign him.

Any rovers fans know how many games he played for you in the last 2 season?
