Disappointing as he's a decent prospect, however I'd guess he's signed elsewhere for next year and isn't fit enough to play yet, maybe for some time so the club feel he's not worth keeping around. Maupybe he has or hasn't looked after himself enough, we'll probably never know the truth but leaches another hole in an already small squad

Not surprisingly a nothing statement.
Leaves us very short in the backrow.
Can't believe we intend going with only 3 second rows! Holmes - seems very delicate/injury prone Carwright - didn't he have a recurring foot injury when he joined us? seems to miss a fair few games. Lane - would have been binned years ago if it wasn't for his ridiculous contract. Front & centre of the `can't be arsed brigade', been regular for years simply because we've had no one else of note. His stats were usually atrocious, but predictably improving now his contract is coming to an end. Unusually (for us) most of our top youngsters seem to be backs.The only forwards i've seen who've looked like making the grade are Balmforth & Stavely - the others, - nowhere near first team material Hopefully Myler will surprise us with a quality replacement for Stavely, but i'm not holding my breath

If the tag line is that Staveley was down the pecking line, then we should only be signing someone who is better and maybe more experienced than him. Still disappointing, I know there are two sides to a story, but it does sound like he wanted to stay and fight for his place (even moved to Hull), but the club didn't want him. It won't happen, but would love the club to come out and say why he was released, we have had alot of abuse directed our way from previous players, would be good to fight back a bit.

You toe the line follow the instructions and get your head down with Cartwright, or your out, the coaches and physios do their bit but the players have to do theirs, that's what one of the assistant coaches told me weeks ago on this subject. And so it has been!! This is not just strong action, but also a lesson for the rest I guess!
That's about as close to the truth as I think we'll get and it's what we've been crying out for. 100% professionalism. No exceptions and let's get rid of the culture of mediocrity we've become entrenched in.

There are legal/HR implications for saying anything these days. Generally employers now just give references with dates you were employed and that is that, for fear of reprisals later.

Cartwright suggesting in Hull Live that he only was involved in signing Cust, Rapana and Sezer which isn't a surprise. If some of the others don't perform he may be saying to Andrew 'speak to your son in law' then...

This game loves machine gunning it's foot
The fact that you didn`t name the current CEO of the RFL and called him: "The Head Of The RFL", says it all.....scarcely anyone outside the City of Hull knows who he is!
