My thoughts exactly and surely we wouldn't? Clifford , if he comes back to SL, will go to whomever pays him the biggest salary, or offers a chance of actual success, that may be us , but let's not kid ourselves, because despite what our emotional investment is to our club, he is an Australian, with no particular attachment to Hull FC, other than being a stand out player in an otherwise weak team, who is going home to be a standby, for Chad Townsend or Tom Dearden. If they play well, Jake doesn't get a game and they're both pretty durable players too. I think Hull will have a suitable replacement lined up, because otherwise our pack will be wasted, if we cannot finish our sets off attacking wise. I think there may be something in the Schneider link, it would be karma, for Hudgell, if we took Rovers best fullback and best halfback for next year.
