Wellsy4HullFC Posted Sunday at 08:19 Share Posted Sunday at 08:19 Confirmed by Rovers. I heard on Humberside they're digging Tom Davies next year, so this makes sense now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldofclothofgold Posted Sunday at 08:33 Share Posted Sunday at 08:33 Looks like he'll be taking a similar role to the one Kevin Sinfield was doing . Maybe if it works out take over from GH when he eventually decides to step down 1 Soon we will be dancing the fandangoFROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB HAS DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESSTHEN i DONT KNOW WHAT IS.JAMIE PEACOCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted Sunday at 08:48 Share Posted Sunday at 08:48 A credit to the whole sport and good to see that he won't be lost to it. In my view, far too many are lost owing to limited opportunities. Marks out one difference between union and League....there seems to be more opportunities open to ex union players in union than to ex league players in league.

Chrispmartha Posted Sunday at 09:34 Share Posted Sunday at 09:34 As usual Rhinos fans in meltdown over this, if its a one year playing deal with a transition into a backroom job then it’s a good bit of business. We have dome good young outside backs coming through who just aren’t quite ready yet, Hall will be a good mentor. Everyone seems to be saying just play the kids, whilst ignoring the fact that we currently have a young player playing on the wing who gets all manner of stick every game. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalMrC Posted Sunday at 11:06 Share Posted Sunday at 11:06 (edited) One of the best players in the SL era. It's a real shame things didn't work out in the NRL as he was a world class player. He's shown he can still do a job and no doubt will be a good addition to the back room staff at Leeds so a good move.

You'll always pay over the odds for a player coming back to the UK from the NRL and Leeds very rarely if ever sign them. That's always been the right decision a far as I'm concerned.

If they're having a meltdown it's probably a good sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"As I come towards the end of my career, I’ve got to think about my next career steps and what’s best for me and my family". Isn’t that more to do with the fact union teams have a coach for everything (apart from passing and catching that is).

Does he need to be part of the squad to do that? I'm not totally against the move or anything, and it will be an upgrade on the likes of Olpherts. I'm not surprised fans aren't particularly thrilled with it either though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
up the robins Posted Sunday at 13:33 Share Posted Sunday at 13:33 (edited) Absolute legend and a true professional, always well spoken and extremely positive in everything he says, his on field attributes speak for themselves. Will miss the way carrys out of his own half more effectively than any of our props, its been a pleasure to see him in red and white these last few years. As for Rovers we are apparently replacing Hall with Davis which is a great bit of business and certainly improves our speed. Been a Rovers fan it seems strange a truly world class player coming to the end of his career is leaving us for a last payday rather than the other way around, maybe a sign of how far we have come as a club (and maybe where Leeds are now as a club).
