Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I respect your's Dave, but I will disagree here. I feel you are going OTT on this.

Taylor, Watts, Houghton, Ellis, Mini, Shaul, Sneyd have been great for us this year so far.

The rest have done their job well. No one has let the side down.

Yeaman is doing what he should have been doing 10+ years ago. It took him to be left out of the side at the start of the season to start showing this level of performance.

I have cricised Yeaman in the pasted and I have openly praised him this year.

That said, successful sides replace at the right times. yeaman will be 33 before the end of this season. I feel that you personally would cricised the club if we brought in a 33 year old three-quarter from another club.

Did any Hull players get named?

5 I think. Shaul, Sneyd, Taylor, Houghton, Watts.

So 6 now

Good tough player with experience, nice age to sign a centre especially as we are trying to keep the team/squad healthy.

Are we still looking at signing a stand off?

No it's the fact that we've watched him week in week out for the past two years through two long injury spells as well each year so we know entirely how he operates. Yes his attack is impressive and his try scoring record proves it but his defense has always been poor and for this he's constantly targetted for it just watch the highlights.

Seems a good addition to the squad for next season. Reports indicate the club want to keep Yeaman for another season, on this seasons form and as long as its not for big bucks I wouldn't complain. Yeaman has had his critics and rightly so over the years but this season he has shown the value he offers and credit to Radford and Co for that.

Maybe great is too strong a word, he has done well and had been very important to the team would be better, look at Talanos form since Yeaman has been with us. Got us back into games a few times with important plays and kept us in it with good defensive reads.

I'd be happy if he stays, but if the club feel it's time to move on I totally understand that too.

Yeah he's still after his target.

Jamie Soward

A fairly decent signing for me. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a better centre who's both off-contract and a realistic target.

The three-quarters are shaping up for next year:

Wing: Talanoa, Lancaster, Fonua, Naughton
Centre: Griffin, Tuimavave, Logan
OOC: Michaels & Yeaman

*Champ Manager time* - Providing we've the cap space, I'd be tempted to offer Bonaire's mate another year as backup centre, as I'm not convinced yet by either of the three centres listed that they're up to his standard defensively. If things did go a little pear-shaped for a couple of games, he'd be a good guy to bring in to sure things up. Michaels I'd release.

Got to say it's refreshing to read a thread where people with differing opinions can argue their cases well without resorting to petty points scoring or abuse, some good stuff on both sides of the argument. Me, I think he'll be a really good signing, has all the attributes to be a fans favourite

As a Salford fan I'm gutted to see Josh go but whether we like to admit it or not Hull are a bigger club with a much larger fan base and possibly more to offer at this stage of his career. It's a shame though as our current squad has bags of potential and losing the likes of Scott Taylor & Josh to you guys just pegs back our development.Both players have a great attitude and I've no doubt will be great assets to your club. Personally I think Josh could turn into a cracking 2nd row but he does need to improve defensively. If he does that then he'll go a long way

So that's now Holdsworth, Sneyd, Feka, Taylor and Griffin you've poached.... looks like we're now your feeder club rather than Wire's!
