| Quote Standee="Standee"are you basing that on the assumption Obst and Gleeson are both with us?'"
Yes to the former, no to latter. If we keep Gleeson then definitely (but can't see that happening), if he goes and we replace him I still think that we arguably only need one of Turner and Whiting, unless we put Whiting into the back row. |

| Quote Panther="Panther"Sharp has looked far more comfortable in the games I've seen him play with Gleeson inside him. I just worry about his confidence though...especially in home games, it's almost as if he can feel the crowd expect him to make a mistake before he actually has. Guess this season has been a learning curve for him, after all he played in front of 3,000 at Quins so the expectation levels at FC will have rocketed. Looks like he's still coming to terms with that IMO.'"
Sharp should be no suprise. He has never had a good try scoring record, and has always struggled with errors. |

Who would have had a decent try scoring record playing for Quins last season? Remember we are not playing him on his favoured left side either. |

The guy has no track record at all, not even at junior rugby. Anybody who thought he was going to suddenly turn into a high scoring winger were wearing their fc glasses im afraid.

I don't think you will find anyone on here thinking he was going to turn into one quite frankly. We signed him because he's young, British and wouldn't be taking a massive wedge on the salary cap.
Yes he has his faults but with a coach in Gentle who is known for player development, you never know, he might have watched footage of Sharp and think there is at least something to work with there. |

But would he be doing it if there wasn't any hint of a problem? |

Even gentle cannot polish a turd. maybe he can put some glitter on one and make it more attractive |

He might not even be doing it. I think what your seeing with this press release is Hull FC trying to squash a rumour that has started, the same rumour that starts pretty much every year. It has become a tradition in Hull that there is a rumour from both clubs that a signing is having second thoughts about coming over, we had it with Jason Smith, Shaun Berrigan and O Meeley to my knowledge. Granted occasionally it proves to be right ala Crocker. But i think all we are seeing here is the Hull FC using the fact all our players and coach are at the same venue as an ideal opportunty to quash a rumour before it gets out of control. |

Crocker was always 100% committed, and even recommended us to Fitz and O'Meley, didn't he? |

Maybe. But why would he need all 3? |

I think he's just taking advantage of an opportunity to speak to players who will be senior members of our squad next season. |
