From what I gather from somebody I vaguely know who tried to join the fire service the training spots don't necessarily come up that often so if it's something he wants to do as a post-rugby career then I can see that he'd want to take the opportunity while it's there.
Assuming there is anything to it ofc.

Be amazed if he plays for us again, hopefully he does well at that level and they want him.

Good luck to him, I hope he can find some confidence and form. I don't think we'll see him again at Hull though.

So that's four of our 2024 signings either left or out on loan - Diakhate, Brown, Tindall and Okunbor.

I can't believe a coach as experienced as Smith got recruitment as wrong as this.

I'm not convinced it was solely down to him but you would have at least thought that his experience would have still played a part in spotting better talent. Or was we really in that much of a mess that we just had to go for whoever was even slightly interested in joining us.

As that House of League podcast said the other week, no other Super League club was interested in either Okunbor or Pele so surely that set some alarm bells ringing somewhere at the club?

Here's hoping this loan spell does him and Tindall some good though. It'll hopefully give them both some confidence and get them into form. Whether that benefits us or not, time will tell but at the very least it will hopefully put them in the shop window to secure deals elsewhere.

You only had to listen to smith to know he'd lost the plot. It was like listening to the ramblings of a mad man
