Would Tony go after Leeming if he’s fell out with Rohan?
Didn’t Leeming leave the Giants under a cloud as well?

Always thought this was a year we just had to get through. TS would have been looking at next season when he got appointed, as this mob cant play how he wants them to.

I might be an odd one out here but I'd actually be underwhelmed if we signed Leeming as I don't think he would be much of an improvement, granted he can put in decent performances but he also puts in a fair amount of anonymous performances too. It would also seem he's not the ideal type of team player we need attitude wise judging by his Leeds exit.

As you say we all knew this was most likely a season we would have to get through before any real and substantial changes were made to the playing group. Think TS will have certainly seen enough to know that a great number are just not able cut it for whatever reasons despite giving them all a clean slate. get the impression a few have already retired in their minds and others know they will be leaving at the seasons end.

Wonder if Wakey are still in a generous mood and would be willing to do another swap deal this week, Evans for Whitbread or Lovodua for Tanginoa

or both

Radford’s left

There was a rumour that Clark was interesting St Helens but can see Leeming going there if he's only going to the NRL for a year .

I do expect Saints to have a very large chunk of cap available for next year, with Hopoate, Roby, LMS and Mata'utia all expected to be leaving, and further question marks over Ritson, Hurrell, Bell and Norman. We are likely to be after a centre, wing, hooker and prop being the likely areas we look to recruit in (and maybe another backrow).

Bell is okay, full of enthusiasm. Seems very limited in every position other than lock though

We needs a second row, is Mata'utia going home?

Such a small amount of talent available with everyone buying from the same pool.
Hopefully Smith can be creative.
We just have to hold our nerve and get through this year. At least the never ending jam tomorrow looks more promising with a proven head coach in place finally.

Aye , Going be a bumpy ride but hopefully .Better days to come .

My one hope is that we sign players who will offer value throughout the whole of their contract. Too often we sign a player at or past their peak and get 1-2 good years out of them before their cap space is wasted.

Hoy & Clifford for example should be better players at the end of their contract than now. I’d rather be concerned about needing to find the cap space to keep them

While we havent recruited well over the years, we arent the hottest club to join, we've not won much over the years have missed the top6 a lot over the years and Hull has a bad reputation as a place to live and is a fair commute from West Yorkshire. We will have to outpay to get anyone with more offers to think about

I for one, don't care about recruiting quality players, we need people with a quality attitude first.
