He’s very well thought of at Wire, he’s been playing injured for a long time now though so bringing in Yates may give him a bit of breathing space to recover/manage the injury prior to the playoffs.

Keep hearing rumours that we have released Trueman from the last year of his deal at Hull to take up an offer at Wakey

Would be a very good signing if we could keep him fit, played his best rugby under Powell.

Truman/Russel/Lino all three have their qualities but it would be strange to have all three. I was hoping we would splash the cash on an oversea half to give us that real X factor

Would hope we are looking more at a fast straight runner in similar mould to Toppo,or in today's world Mikey Lewis.

We are not signing him.

The problem with looking overseas for a decent half is that there are very few unavailable and those that are will be requiring inflated salaries to come.

Whilst the top tier halves in the NRL are still brilliant players there isn’t much behind them, hence seeing the likes of Dodd being recruited by Souths and players like Sezer still getting game time.

If the Trueman links are correct I’d be more than happy, he’s a quality half with a running game.

I still think we will be working on a deal to unload Lino I just don’t see him as good use of a quota spot and he’s had his opportunities in SL and not shown up consistently enough to warrant a place in the 17 in 2025 in my opinion.

If Trueman link is correct better than what we got and younger? Thoughts on Lino going 9 and offloading Hood who was way past is best last year in S L .Got my tin hat on

He would definately improve us

Unfortunately top many injuries seem to have affected his running game, maybe a confidence thing. Hopefully stay injury free until the end of the season and has a good pre season.

I'd keep him at Hull for another year, but I can see why we might potentially want him off the books, marquee player, but not getting the value out of him.

Surely Trueman is not a marquee player.
Especially as Hull are not at salary cap limit so don't need a marquee ruling.

If we are looking at agreeing on a deal to release Lino which Ive heard a few times, and possible that Gale could be retiring, then we could be looking at bringing in two halves.

Added to that, Lawford didnt look convincing in the championship when he has featured, could we be looking at 3 new halves in Russell, Lam and Trueman

Yes, Trueman is a Marquee player at Hull.
