Phelps and Moore, and i would be positive of progress this year. As it is i can see a year of standing still.

Yer but was it agar or hulls fc cash!?

Judging by the no20 squad number, I reckon we'll only be getting 1 more signing.
Judging by Phelps's twitter, he hasn't been approached by a club so far.

Is there any substance in the Moore thing, or is it just people wishing on here, and then chinese whispers?

Well i'll be honest, i've heard feck all! Just seems logical to me.

It will be a concern if we don't bring someone in this year as cover at least, imo Hull will be better off throwing some cash at a club to get a quality HB this year and getting ahead of the field because i just can't see us competing for a HB signing with the likes of wire and saints potentially looking for new HB's next year, Agar and co would have to really sell the club to appeal more then saints and wire without been held to ransom again.
Briggs has gone to bulls so only leaves Moore which i wouldn't be against as i'd guess he'd be in the starting line up from the 1st week unless the Chase rumours have any substance to them.

Who's leaving saints and wire?

Eastmond will go to union, rumour has it this is Pryce's last season there and Briers is calling it a day after 2011 i think.

Eastmond ? ( i'd be surprised if he stayed, with reading some of the comments in union circles )

Briers or monogahan ? ( get the impression either or will leave next year )

So they would be both in for HB's and we just won't compete imo.

IMO Rangi chase wouldn't be a medium signing. under the circumstances it would be huge!! which is why i can't see it happening. besides even 3 months ago i couldn't see castleford releasing/selling arguably their two best players

todays rugby papers

quins or crusaders

Would be good for him, really hope he gets a club.

Maybe not but with Long, Horne, Fitzgibbon, one of Lauaki or Moa and maybe Berrigans money to spend they shouldn't be able to out bid us.

Briggs has 100% signed for Bradford now.

Hope you manage to find a decent half - when a few clubs are chasing a championship player it shows there is certainly not many available.

hull say there are very few half backs available to sign.in the last few months,finch,holdsworth,herbert,briggs,rovelli,witt,sammut and green have all been signed by rival clubs.bradford have signed 2 halfbacks since they lost orford back to aussie.nearly all these players mentioned where rumoured to be coming to hull at one time or another.
