Indeed, and much as he let himself and Rovers down last year, I'm not going to callus my soul hoping it goes the other way.
Tbf he spent two years playing behind a beaten pack, and we seemed very likely to cut him loose at the end of last year, no matter what, so it would have taken a decent professional to stay focused and motivated. Maybe Radford and your other coaches have turned him into that - kudos, if so.

Don't think there's any Hull fans taking it for granted that his form will be taken into anything long term. Think most are just enjoying his current form and hoping for the best.
Unfortunately, maverick form on the pitch often means maverick behaviour off it. Just have to see what happens.

CASTLEFORD v Saints - Can anybody beat them at the Mend-a-Hose this year? Yes, us, on a balmy summers evening July 1st. FEV v Halifax - Could be a good watch on Sky Thursday night. Nowt between them on league form. HULL FC v Catalans - Never confident but happy if we could sneak it and get a quarter with winner of one above. Dewsbury v WAKEFIELD - SL teams can get beaten but can't see a RAMpage here. Swinton v WIGAN - As above. WIRES v Widnes - Think we might have broke the Vikings after Sunday.

Couldn't help but notice Wattsy staying well clear of the fracas late on with a smile on his face as if he was thinking 'If I get too close to it I'll get another ban'
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Think he's really trying to be a good boy atm, he tweeted the Hulk shirt with something like "can't wait to wear this, two games to go yet though might get banned"
