Quote: Dave K. "Yep, don't think contracts mean too much, Cartwright was under contract.
Of that list, would like Milne, Iro or Niu. Can't see Milne or Iro, so hoping for Niu with the Cartwright and Ese Ese connection.
For full back, Hodgson stands out with the Hull/family connection, but not sure he is what we need. Laurie would be great, but unlikely.
One player not on those lists who is out of contract is Perham, who nearly signed a while back, been in brilliant form at FB in the NSW cup, can play 6 too and is the type we look to be after.
Still hoping for Sailor, think if he fancies SL, we will have a good chance.
Keeping the Brisbane connection, I'd like the last 3 quota spots to be Sailor, Niu and Taupau.
I know Taupau will he 35, but still a great player and would offer great leadership skills for a year,'"
Perham is tough one, looks like he’s got ability to be at least a top SL player but it would be a brave call going for another bulldogs flop. I’d take the gamble but I’d worry some of our fans would see what bulldogs fans say about him on Facebook and be on his back before he got here. Various factors have made playing for Hull harder than anywhere else and fan expectation has been part of that.
