So will Briscoe's.

said that on here before and got shot down wingers at the end of the day if they get a ball into there chest the will 9 out of 10 times finish we dont need to offer him a massive amount to stay let him go and get a 7 and we have jason crookes and lineham more then good enough for superleague

I'd rather we kept our best players and got rid of the e ones (especially the high earning ones). That's how you build a winning team imo. Not continually losing the better ones and replacing them with lesser individuals. There's plenty of room for Briscoe/Lineham and a quality scrum half if someone does their job properly.

Problem is we only have 1 creative/organising player, no real strike players and only 1 winger who is really capable of creating something out of nothing. The whole squad is bang average

The reality kicks in, how correct you are!

I agree with the general thrust of your point, but I think we have two wingers who can create something from nothing. I also think McDonnell could be a useful strike player if we sort out the problems in the middle.

A top class 7, centre and prop would make a big difference to our side.

The reality is, we must go all out for a 7. If I was Pearson I would be doing it now for next season. Maybe he is, lets hope so.

hopefully so

could we not get a 7 in on loan from nrl? im sure a youngster would like the opportunity to come over and test him self or even Kyle eastmond wasted talent in union

Agreed, it's just seems to be a huge problem finding that elusive number seven.

Getting a "no" from Prince plus Lopini Paea turning us down were massive blows to our top four aims this season.

If I remember correctly to try and bring a youngster in from the NRL with no first grade experience has visa issues.
I think hull need to move heaven and earth to get a Top grade 7 in.
And I think if they do not achieve this, I fear hulls next season pass sales will fall.

Everyone remembers that we already tried to throw money around to get a top class 7, right? It just isn't that simple any more. Top halves are in short supply both here and in the NRL.

That said, I bloody well hope we're doing our utmost in any case.

Glad you reminded me about that as i and many other fans will have forgotten.

I wouldn`t mind Gentle getting the players to actually hold the ball when it is passed to them,it would be a start.

Possibly super glue?? (Just reminds me of a film.. The Replacements)
