From what I've heard that was originally the case but apparently deal has been signed, apparently we were waiting to finalise a deal for another half so there was some pressure to make a decision on Trueman. Maybe hull felt we were the only club that were willing to take Trueman on as a marquee on the cap, I'm not sure who else would either because they are using the spots or can't afford to, flip side to the coin aswell is apparently Trueman is keen to link up with Powell again.

Either way, I doubt Trueman will be here, hardly feel like you are wanted by the coaches if they arr offering
you out.

It also makes sense to the future balance of the team if Abdul is coming to look for a running half.
Abdul with Trueman doesnt work for me
Abdul with a running half like Lam would work a lot better,plus we should see more tries from the halfbacks.
Whether Lam comes or not the club need to find a running half
Cant see the club actively trying to sign Lam unless Trueman has already signed for Wakefield

| God knows what Cartwright must be thinking when he sees the tape and condition of Abdull at the weekend.
He must be amazed.

When I was in Catalans in March, he walked out with a full pizza after the game

| Deffo got some work on their hands if we are to believe the fitness mantra. Myler & JC have been banging the drum about.

Because it's a salary capped sport and our budget only stretches too far, he might have set up two tries on Saturday but how many other decent games has he had / runs of games in the team, how far away is serious injury number 3? It's the same with Carlos and Cator, we're not getting good cap value from them so they need to unfortunately be moved on.

| You can put Balmforth in that Abdull chatter
Watch the Wigan game at the start of the second half
At 46-52 mins you can see Balmforth just slow in the D line and the game has already been on 6-12 mins!!
He struggles fitness wise - watch him in that first 15 mins of the second half
Watch how he moves.
Surely someone can point this out to him !!! What are the coaches doing ?
He weighs 10kg more than Harry Grant and looks every 10kg of that weight.
I’ve nothing against Denive - if I was his coach I’d get 6kg off his weight within 6 weeks through diet and the rowing machine etc
most folks on this forum know how an athlete can lose body fat.
I can’t wait to see him and Abdull when fully fit with just 10-12% body fat
That’s when it gets exciting and I just really really hope JC and the team can improve our fitness levels by 50% because we need that

To be fair I think that’s been the plan all along especially since they signed Abdull. Sailor was the main target and then we saw an opportunity with Lam and like I said I’m sure they went for Sullivan too. All fit that bill as that type of player a bit of zip and ability to run the ball. It’s gutting that we’ve missed out on all 3 but I’m sure an obviously decent amount of salary cap and quota space has been set aside for a ball running halfback that we’ve missed since Kelly.

| All those saying about Abdul and his size well We've got the right man coming in who is all about fitness fitness fitness and Abdul knew this when he signed so I'm expecting to see a completely different Abdul next season.

Iiit was said a while ago it would take time to get to his best form. That seems to be how it’s panning out. You don’t understand the impact of his 2 injuries plus any other knocks he gets and walking in to a crap team. He is now showing why we should keep him. Not sure what you want from him. Unaware of Truemans desire to go west. I hope he doesn’t
