For me we have the player already at the club in Abdull as long as he can take onboard advice re his professionlism & his fitness. The kid has all the attributes and skill sets needed to be a great stand off, the only issue is the fitness and dedication it takes to be a pro athlete.
If we see Abdull loaned out to Leigh for a year it'll be a great bit of business for both clubs. He's got the talent and can't doubt his effort on the pitch, just needs game time.

Quite. Please return to the subject of tomorrow night's game.

Would he get much game time with Ridyard ahead of him?

Be interesting to see how Ridyard does in SL, having never played there, Jamie Ellis looked class in the championship, but is an average SL player. Same could be said about Drinkwater. I'd guess if this happens it because of Cookes influence, be great having Abdul work with him as he reminds me of him at the same age.

Abdull at leigh for a year is a sound move for both clubs Carlos is fine as a 6 for me and will only get better Connor will put his hand up if carlos doesn't perform anyway. I stumbled across connor stats yesterday To say he's been in a rubbish team and had no set position playing wing n centre mostly his stats are pretty Damn good 12 tries (our top only has 14) 2 40.20s Nearly 30 offloads 18 try assists -the stat that stands out Plus good metres busts etc Again only young and improving...

On topic regarding hull v wakey - COYH
You do know that Abdull to Leigh is someones opinion rather then actually announced?
The "will only get better" comment I generally find a bit odd, does this imply there are no decent aspects to his game? Its a cliche which the likes of Gwillam Lloyd et al come out with which doesnt mean anything
Mini is always a big miss and Frank apparently aggrevated his knee problem. Think FC have enough in the tank (no pun intended, as he's out) to beat Wakey. Hope Carlos keeps it going from last Friday. Hope no bloomers as well.

There's nowhere else to post this so I've put it on here, leave yourself plenty of time getting to the ground, there are roadworks getting from Heath common onto Doncaster road, you may breeze through or get stranded for a while, enjoy.

Thanks for the advance warning
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Potential banana skin are Wakey, we opened up a big lead at their place in the reg season then they went on a mad one and scored something like 20 points in 10 minutes didn't they?
