Signings seem to have dried up,I wonder if it will now be solely down to DR's for us.

Brierley got offered around to most Championship clubs seemingly with no takers for whatever reason. Hull KR certainly putting together a squad that looks like it will be comfortable in at least the bottom 2.

Who the hell is looking at our squad with its threadbare pack and thinking 'let's sign another centre'. Madness.

I don't think its a bad decision we only have Ross Oakes and Rhys Evans at centre for this season, they both can play 2nd row maybe Kears plan is to move one of these into 2nd row and a new centre to come in.

That’s what I was thinking. Oakes had some good games at 2nd row last year

Has anyone got an upto date squad list?

Im my head i have us down as only having 14/15 senior players at the min. However my head isnt always the most reliable source.

I,ve been trying to keep track, but its not easy. This was the latest list I had, but it is probably incomplete as the club seem very coy about announcing which members of last years Academy have been given senior contracts for next year. I'm also guessing at positions in some cases.

Pickersgill
Stephenson
Brown

Wing

M Smith
Leadbeater

If anyone knows Ive definitely got something wrong, then please feel free to amend.

It's going to be a hell of a long season...

Thanks Sedge.
Appreciated.

By my reckoning thats 15 that have at played 1st team for us (excluding the 1895 cup game at barrow) and the 2 new lads.

Of the 15:
Brown only 1 or 2 games
Stevenson only 1 or 2 games
Doyle less than half a dozen
Milnes about 10
And Hodgeson who hasnt really had a look in for the last 2 seasons

Anyone else worried???

I think everything is been covered up, I also think Kear won’t care as he will be on a decent wedge, so he will say owt, we have signed 2 new players and was told a few more will be signed and a duel reg would be announced something in back of my mind had 2nd dec about signings,,, yet again nothing from the club, Kear also said less friendlies this year again a load of bull,,,

Yeah.

Whilst we can obviously put out a team, it feels much like 2017 when we were seeing young kids getting mullered every week by grizzled Championship veterans.
