I'll be there unless I get a puncture on my bike as I did on the way to the last home game.
It turned out to be a blessing

| Quote: scarrie "Does anyone even do that any more with the advent of video calls? Plus our new coach is already there if any face to faces are necessary.
Also I don't get how the recruitment we have so far done is somehow easy? Are you suggesting he couldn't be d to find any good players so just signed the first ones he could?
I get that they don't exactly set pulses racing but we need quite a few players and there aren't that many quality ones around to sign atm, especially if you are trying to get value on the cap which is something we're hugely struggled with.
We've still got two non-fed spots to play with and I doubt we're done just yet. Whether we'll end up with the calibre you crave is open to question but I find this assertion that Myler has signed players because he can't be d to do the hard yards a bit ridiculous in all honesty.'"
Yes they do but the clubs have to be ambitious and pro active
South Sydney Rabbitohs have their eyes on four current Super League props as their head of rugby lands in the UK. Mark Ellison is in the country as part of the NRL club's recruitment plans moving forward, and reports suggest he has identified a number of players they are keen to secure
This was in May this year
This month Titans reps are in the UK and attended magic weekend and are talking to agents about players.They are also looking particularly at front row forwards
See your point about Carwright but he is in a job at the moment and surely cant put 100% into finding players we need
If the likes of Rabbitohs .and Titans see face to face meetings important then im sure Hull FC should too.
Get off your bum Myler and get to Australia

| Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "Great post.
The "taking stock" sounds ambiguous to me. Taking stock of the halfback search and/or the remaining recruitment as a whole.
Obviously the "donor" will be announced when things have been finalised but at least give us an update where we are at the moment.
It's been a long time since we've heard from Pearson and that's what worries me.'"
you mean Lord Lucan

| Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "It depends on who you define as a good reserve grader. Although different positions we signed and was strongly linked with the two PNG players neither of whom played made a single NRL match. Is that really the level we are looking at for such a key position.
We made Lam a massive offer. That kind of money should be enough to lure a player of similar quality from the NRL even if we are not the most attractive proposition at the moment.'"
It shows there is little strategy in what the club are doing when they sign the PNG full back when we have Moy,Walker,Litten and Hardaker who can also play there and then are linked with the PNG hooker when we have Smith.Balmforth and several forwards like Lane who can play there whilst screaming out for a halfback and centre
In Ritchie we trust

More than linked with we agreed to sign Rimbu the PNG hooker according to press reports. At the time we only had Balmforth as a specialist hooker and arguably Smith so we needed another one. That fell through for whatever reason and we signed Bourouh a couple of weeks later. Since then we have signed Cust who is slated to play Hooker which baffles me as he has hardly played there. I wouldn't be surprised if Cust will be the halfback we need with Charles and Smith as back ups.

Need to chase harder!
Bit harsh that. I think he's a pretty useful squad player.

| If Cust and Abdul can stay fit I think it could be a pretty decent half back combo. I think Cust will surprise a few this year. But i know chances of them both staying fit are slim unless Cartrights fitness regime sorts can sort them both out

| Let4ing trueman go was a calculated risk that I agree with. He's barely played half the games we've had and not been great when he has played. Maybe the taking stock comment means we'll use cust as a half back and switch to looking for a decent hooker which, imo is as important as a half back in terms of the team. Lam was playing for leigh and they struggled until ipape and asisata came back and now they're flying
