Knight's deal with Hull FC is only until the end of 2025, so we could still try to sign him for 2026, even if this rule change happens. It would then depend on what the player wants to do. If Knight came to Wire, I'd like it to be because he actually wanted to be here, rather than because of a scenario where he preferred to stay at Hull FC but was unable to.

Very good point.

Whenever I've seen Knight he has looked like a penalty machine. A big body yes but not sure he is a great signing.

Knight has only conceded 3 penalties in 5 games so not sure he's a penalty machine.


He's been good for us, especially considering he had no pre season.  Getting better as he gets up to match fitness and can do big minutes.  Defence is excellent 

Just remembered Chris Satae is still off contract next year (i think), Would be happy with him as a Musgrove replacement. I'd still keep Vaughan as i think he still offers plenty to the team.

I thought the quota change was already in place for next year, i didn't realise it was still yet to be decided.
It would free up Yates spot for us at least. I don't think it will be Green lit though to be honest as it creates an unfair competition in that respect. As say (for example) 10 team only have 7 overseas players but 2 have 9-10 potential overseas it can create a bigger gulf.
The fact we're trying to create a more even playing field for a more competitive competition, this would go against this and create an even bigger imbalance.

Yes I would extend Vaughan. Still our best prop by a mile. 

Sorry if my posts are disjointed, but my posts and others posts keep disappearing and re-appearing, so it's all out of sync for me still.
