Liam Watts explains why leaving Hull FC was one of the best decisions he's ever made

Liam Watts has admitted that leaving Hull FC and joining Castleford Tigers was one of the best decisions he has ever made. The 29-year-old  spent the best part of six years at the KCOM Stadium after joining from Hull KR in 2012 and helped bring an end to the club’s Wembley hoodoo by playing key roles in the club’s Challenge Cup wins of 2016 and 2017. He left the club in 2018 in controversial circumstances with off-the field issues being cited by the Black and Whites at the time. However, Watts has been in an incredible form since joining his hometown club and he has even earned a call-up to the England team and he puts that down to his switch to The Jungle. Speaking to Yorkshire Post, he said: “It has given me a new lease of life, it has brought a new temperament for me. It has really settled me down, family-wise, and in my mind as well. I was getting a little bit erratic at the back end of my Hull career. "I think that was a little bit of agitation and I had a bit of stuff going on in my personal life. Coming back to Castleford it all seemed to ease. “It has allowed me to really settle down and it has been one of the best moves I have ever made; coming back to Cas.” Source- HullLive
