| The NRL merry-go-round is in progress. I don't think we will see any new overseas signings until that settles down.
As for bringing in a prop, this season is done. Chan, Laidlaw and Gardiner can fill in. Armstrong will come in at some point too. Might as well save our pennies.

To be honest what’s he said in that interview that isn’t going to be gospel? All he says is that we are trying to sign a couple of good players (who sets out to sign bad players anyways) from the NRL to fill our quota spots and he’s trying to attract some outside investment into the club. I’d expect that’s always been the case for years.

| so we have a couple of marquee players and will probably have a couple of marquee players?

Reading the Yorkshire Post article Pearson doesn't seem to know how many players we've already signed so I'm guessing he doesn't know how many marquee places we have either.
Whoever we sign I'm expecting them all to be over 6ft 4.

| Cade Cust what are Hull doing. Surely even the most hardened supporters must be so disappointed with the recruitment so far. This screams desperation

Up to now it’s kind of recruitment and kind of players that a newly promoted side would generally make. We’ll be lucky to end the season with 6-8 points so we are effectively a championship standard side at the moment. It’s the reality of our financial situation as a club and the playing squad we currently have. You have to start somewhere and build our way back. Compare to Wakefield who have a backer pumping money in they’ve signed a couple of top quality players but still think they’ll have to bulk up their squad with a few more steady SL players like we’ve signed.

| Unfortunately Cust hasn't been effective since he picked up an injury in the 2022 CC final. Hoped he would pick up his form at Salford but still looks off the pace.

I'm not convinced Wakefields recruitment is as good as people think, Mcmeeken is a brilliant signing, but not sure about a marquee winger.
Scott, Hall and Storton are OK, both probably squad players at Hull and Rovers.
Russell on a 4 year contract is brilliant work by his agent, very average halfback.
Look at their pivots, Jowett, Lino, Russell, Hood and Pitts, ok they might recruit more and its a positive they are spending, but think people are going a bit over the top on their recruitment.
