I have heard a rumour from a mate that we might be trying to get Myler on loan. He isn't very reliable and i can't see it happening myself but thought i would put it up anyway.

Wouldn’t help much with the lack of creativity, he’s an excellent support player, much like Jeffries, but for filling the void left by Brough, he wouldn’t be the answer.

Id take a punt on Briggs if its an option, good kicking game and can create...

anyone else heard anything???

Heard were around 850k in debt plus the tax bill! Can't see anyone taking over and inhabiting debts like that especially when the current bod want to be bought out despite what others may say on here. Not looking good at all if you ask me regardless of whether we get the op for the ground or not.

Hull FC have released a load of e, sorry I mean players with a point to prove if your interested

Yeah we know. We were panicking that we might end up with Hall but someone else has saved us the embarassment.

yeah, so was I

Ewan Dowes is still out of contract..I still think we need another prop in our ranks...

Wasn't somebody claiming we were in the running for this lad? www.thisishullandeastriding.co.u ... ticle.html

With Harlequins signing of Nick Kouparitsas would this increase our chances of Rob Purdham coming our way? Harlequins coach Rob Powell quoting "Nick is a very versatile ball-playing forward, giving him a niche in the game. He spent most of this year at hooker, however, in the past he has played back row and loose forward." Maybe this is good news for us? news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 087646.stm

Can we please speculate in this thread about players coming in. At least until the press release is un-embargoed! (again!)

I take it you deleted my Howarth and Veivers thread?

How come it's been deleted when the info is out there in the public domain. Quite happy with some of these young signings just think we could do with an experienced half back and one or two more experienced players to aid the likes of Morrison king and Henderson, not just on the pitch but off it too. Still think jd could be a great mentor to the young lads in some kind of coaching or player development role. Really think we've missed a great opportunity there while it was staring in our face and kicking our shins

Who and who???

Howarth and Veivers at wakefield, what do you think

Howarth not god enough.
Vievers too slow.
We have got better youngsters at the club

Hth

Sounds about right, but they are here now

See pm.

whats wrong

I would like to think that the deal for these players is embargoed until tomorrow or the weekend!!

"Josh played full back in most of the Reserve games last season and was also the team's goal kicker with a great success ratio."

From the wigan site, looks like he could be our first choice goalkicker this year, as of yet, theres no-one else!

Josh Veivers is a very good player. Should of signed for Wakefield last year.

confirmed on wigan board

I imagine this is the reason - another Express exclusive? Hard to keep embargoes in these days of the net and loads of websites not affliliated to the traditional papers/radio/telly.

Blurs the line for this board and how independent from the club it is. Not the same as leaking the fixture list, just very minor signings. If it's reported elsewhere, what is fair game?
