Jake Connor from Huddersfield has signed for us on a 2 year deal starting next season.

Think it's a really astute signing can play anywhere in the backs and a great age too.

Came from left field this signing as did Griffin so it's good to see professional from the club in keeping names under wraps until any deal is done.

Beat me to it, lots of potential. Young and British plus can play a few positions.

Know little of him but what I have heard is good, looks to have a bit of flair about him but not sure on his best position

Another clever signing.

It'll be interesting to see what our starting back 5 will be next season.

Seems a great signing, Yeamo to be gone? On current form seems a bit harsh, or Michaels to free up cap and quota?

Imagine this means Michaels is 100% going which is a shame as I like him. That's said Connor is an upgrade on him and probably the same value on the salary cap too.

Difficult to say whether he will be good for you or not.

I am not his favourite fan. Can be aggressive but gives away silly penalties. My feeling is that he is too slow to play in the backs strong defender at those coming straight at him but his lateral defence is poor.

The big problem s that we have used him as a utility so has never settled in one position.

Not upset to see him go .

With different coaching and a settled position he could develop.

If I was a Hull fan I would be neither disappointed or excited. Could do well could be a flop.


GOOD LUCK TO HIM THOUGH

Can see him challenging Tuimavave for the 6 shirt. Got some good skills, just a shame hes not had the chance to show it because Brough runs the show there.
