I liked how our back three work the ball up field under Agar but I feel Lynn is going to struggle to replace Cockayne in that area.
Of course catching and running at speed are good qualities to add to I'm not saying he is a no hoper.
I'd like us to get a new outside back anyway for cover but a muscled up type like Blanche or Tadulala who can take a high ball and drive away would be my preferred.
I'd give up speed for muscle (within reason)

I agree with cover for the wing (and fullback) my concern was the other wing. Too many times last season we got caught out with a simple one on one kick to the corner. Fox is a confidence player and by the end of the season he looked like he had none left. Hope this was just end of the season fatigue.

I know what you are saying. It will be interesting to see how Fox goes this season.

Is Walshaw too slow for the wing? He'd take the ball up strongly and wouldn't have difficulty with the high ball...

Ok fair enough. icon_lol.gif

What about trying to get Menzie Yere, Will Sharp or Miles Greenwood for wing?

All from championship and take some tackling plus can score tries? Appreciate it'll come down to costs etc though that we can't afford an unproven player from lower leagues financially.

Mathers
Fox
Collis
Smith

Is Walshaw the only cover we have if a back gets injured??

Don't think Walshaw is cover for the backs, played wing once and that was at against Hemel.

We need to be fishing for lower league players like this for a wing spot for competition with Lynne and Fox (and full back cover) who are reaching their peak and would like another go at Super League probably?....

I was given to understand that we had Will Sharp sorted, before the RFL stepped in to save Mr Glover from himself; that one may resurface now that things are a bit steadier?

Just viewed 8 min highlights of Sharp on U Tube.
Looks quick , elusive,runs well out of defence and seems pretty assured under high ball.
Probably do good job for us.

Agar more than most knows a Will Sharp and what he is capable of...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Sharp


Hull coach Richard Agar went on to say. "He is a talented, young and ambitious player. ...... He has the ability to carry the ball well and has strength and speed which will be great assets for us next season and I don't think it will be long before he establishes himself as a crowd favourite.".....

........In April 2013 Will signed for ambitious Championship club Featherstone Rovers. He signed a 6-month deal......Then Rovers coach Daryl Powell compared him to former rugby league and rugby union superstar Jason Robinson. Sharp appeared to make an immediate impact with the fans due to his fearless and committed style of play. This earned him the nickname 'Sugar Ray'.

Maybe Will Sharp wrote the above himself? Admittedly he looks good on video footage of some of his games. Worth a punt IMHO hopefully this will be another announcement in the next week or so. We'll then have Sharp, Lynne and Fox to compete for 2 wing positions.

Seems to be a strong rumour that Will Sharpe is on RFAs radar . (being ex Hull I suppose he would be) having seen him a few time this season at Featherstone I don’t think he would be a bad option , as he plays a similar game to Charlie . but I have the same question as I asked MC at the last forum . WHAT IS WRONG WITH OUR OWN .No Danny Cowling an outside back No Liam Kay( all though originally at Bradford) and STILL no news on another   who accepted the offer put to him the week after the CAS game .

Did Kaye accept the offer a week after the Cas game?
I thought he knocked it back?
