Aydin has been great for you, but like Jack brown he lacks the size to be a top prop.

| I still think Brown, could be a very good SL prop, is strong for his size and has good hands, think he would do well at Rovers long term.

| I think there will be more than 2-3 signings still to come in as stated in the HDM. Cust, Half back, centre, winger (AJ Towse), prop and maybe another back rower.

| Quote: The Cooke Report "Banter aside, Hull need to be at least competitive unlike the last 3 or 4 years. With the players coming in, there is nothing there that anyone with the slightest bit of rugby knowledge would see as good signings. Asiata is clearly the only player that hits any heights of expectation but since his comeback he has been terrible. He looks shot. I think the move to sign Josh Drinkwater is another shot in the head if it comes off. As for being worried about your recruitment from a Rovers perspective NO. List every player for Hull and Rovers side by side and there is only one player that would get in a Rovers team and that's Herman the German but on the bench as his performances have fallen off recently.'"
But one of our poorer players is making your 17 most weeks.

| No idea why we even bother replying to rovers trolls, think the only one who actually tries to be constructive is Mild Rover.
Saying Asiata has been poor since he’s come back. was the reason leigh dominated us in the periods he was on the pitch.
the way he moves the ball, passes at the line and even offers a solid short kicking game is something we've not had in a long while. i dont think there is 13 in SL who can do it like him. just a risk with his age.
our recruitment so far has being steady. improves us but very little wow factor. i think the club need to be brave. do we look at a winger & 10 from RU.
harvey barron has made me eat my words last few weeks, his defense looks much improved but i do think we need another experienced head on wing. a number 10 from RU would be a risk but doesnt count on the cap and limited half options in aus.
last two quota spots hinge on whether we go from battling out for bottom 3 or for play off spot IMO. cust im still not sure on but when wigan signed him from aus i thought they had a steal so hopefully he comes good

| Opacic would be a funny one, i do think he is a good player but it just isn't the eye-catching signing we crave, should we sign him it's vital a barnstorming SR comes through the door too.

He’ll be 30 and hardly torn any trees up at rovers. Would be far from impressed.

FWIW, if we are going down the route of signing 30+ year old centres id rather us go for Lafai for 1/2 years

If we sign him it'll be a statement signing alright. The statement will be is the investment as significant as we first thought.
If we can afford Lam on marquee wages then surely we should have more ambition than signing the likes of Opacic as well. I'd rather keep Carlos he is a better player.
I haven't seen anywhere where we have been linked with Opacic so I hope it's just idle gossip.
As most of us have stated the last two quota signings have to be high quality otherwise the recruitment as a whole will be very underwhelming and they'll be a number of fans having second thoughts about renewing their passes.

Or Leutele if he doesn't get a new deal.

Completely agree with all this, this is why the remaining recruitment is crucial, if the remaining signings are underwhelming I can see a lot of people walking away and not bothering with a pass.

Don't think it has anything to do with a lack of money or ambition. Players are simply finding other clubs more attractive options than Hull at the moment. Two ways of looking at that - either Myler isn't doing a good enough job or it's too tough of a sell atm.

Also agree with this. But that’s not going to sell passes for the club unfortunately.
