Speculation regarding the signing of Canterbury Bulldogs' Frank Pritchard refuses to die down, with the second-rower long being linked with the Black and Whites. Pritchard has been touted to a number of clubs in the NRL and Super League, including Hull, but he would command a huge chunk from Hull's salary-cap and would become one of the club's highest earners. Whilst that doesn't put Hull off completely, the speculation continues to rumble on as to where his next destination lies. m.hulldailymail.co.uk/Caterbury- ... story.html

Paea was a very high earner. If he wants more than that, tell him to piff off.

Maybe dependent on the marquee rule?

I thought we'd made 2 signings and were intending to keep paea?

If we do sign him IMO its just what we need a big rough a rse forward

Just can't see it. Heard he may be Catalans bound.

Heard Radford interviewed about the marquee signing rule on Humberside tonight and he said "We won't be paying anyone £200,000 a year".

Let's hope the 8 clubs who voted for it don't see much of a return on their investments

Didn't say anything about paying anyone £199,999 or £201000

Are the club going out of their way to depress us this week?! so basically despite having one of the biggest revenues in the league we aren't going to even try and sign a big name to help bring crowds back and help us get out of mid-table obscurity?

Although we have decent attendances, we pay through the nose to use the KC when you factor in additional revenue we don't get from not owning the stadium. warrington made £600k profit last season on smaller crowds than us. Once saints get over their initial period in their new home they'll start making good profits. leeds are in a class of their own and hudds and wigan pay a relative pittance to play in their rented stadia. Despite what the mad egyptian claims, playing at the KC under the current agreemnet holds us back as a club

He never said that.

What did he say then? I'm only going off what the other poster posted.

I'd assume he means we won't pay over-inflated wages for 1 player just because theres a new rule saying we can.
