No, He's a halfback who can cover hooker. Im pretty certain Abdull will be getting an off season programme and that he'll have to hit certain markers by the time pre season starts. |

All 3 where in the starting 17's pretty regularly up until then (barring injuries)
As has been said many times, Myler was having to play catch up with recruitment when he was appointed so think he's done pretty well pesonally considering he's been fishing in a small pond so to speak.
All signings ( Asiata apart) might not have the wow factor which we all crave but they are all good professional's with experience who are also good people off the pitch ( Hardaker the exception ![]()
I don't think that is necessarily the case. Leigh and Salford are battling it out for play off places and you would imagine will play their strongest team irrespective of them leaving. Partington for instance has signed for Catalan but is still a regular for Salford. It happens at every club.
I do agree about Myler having to play catch up.

Completely agree with this, I don’t buy the line “he’s not playing because they are leaving”
All players still playing despite leaving. Only seems to some of the ones we’ve signed that aren’t 
Johnstone
Davies
Makinson
McMeeken
Dodd
Nicholson
Asiata
Hall
Masters
Hardaker
Partington

If rumours are to be believed he was given certain criteria’s to hit by Willie Peters and he turned up a stone overweight |

I have a very radical solution for all our new players when all are announced and some won’t like it on here and I may run the risk of a ban.Why don’t we actually see how they play in the 1st FEW rounds as it will take a bit for them to gel before we start slagging them off and getting abusive about someone’s weight

Just on this^^^ Does anyone actually know whats happened with Oli Holmes? Is he on loan anywhere as for him to not even make the 17 or 18 for weeks and weeks is odd, hes always off surfing and walking on IG etc so hes clearly not busy with the club at present? Just feels like an odd situation with him still being a handy 2nd rower

Can really see this happening'"
Cannot see it happening, I think we need to get over that idea.
His wife is due to give birth in December and going by their social media they are loving life over there with their friends and families. Why would they want the upheaval of a third major move in three years. He has no emotional attachment to Hull either. |

Abdull apparently told fans over in Catalan that he has a target weight for the start of pre season and has a personal trainer all sorted and knows what he needs to get to, so lets see if he gets to that.
As for some of the other players - Cust, Holmes, Bourouh, their lack of games will hopefully help them be fit and healthy leading into pre season with us

I do see what your saying however money talks, is he going to get a financially better offer over there? I really don't know |

I remember the last overweight injury prone fullback we signed from Rovers….. Albert Kelly. Let’s judge Abdul round 1
Josh Rourke should be on our radar. Got something about him, young and would be cheap. Walker (if he stays), Rourke and Moy is a steady fullback trio

Leutele is on the verge of resigning at Leigh |

Kelly's weight did fluctuate quite a bit when he was with us, brilliant player but was a bit out of shape in the 2019/20 seasons |

Hardaker spoils your argument
Ever considered they are just not good enough?

add in Hardaker and Litten and we are going full back heavy instead of hooker heavy
just wish it was halfback heavy |

Or what? We book him in for a gastric band and in the meantime our season ends before it starts? |
