| I still don't think Gentle wants us to be a barnstorming team, so those looking for a blockbusting prop will probably be disappointed. And apart from Paea at Rovers I can't think of any OOC.

| Quote: east hull FC fan "From the pack we're losing Tickle, O'Meley & Galea. Two props are a must.
A front row of Lynch, Watts, Johnson & Pitts isn't ideal.
I'd like to see Green & Pitts at 13, with Ellis, Westy & Whiting in the back row. Leaving Hadley & Kent as back up.
We then have Lynch, Watts & two new props backed up by Bowden & Johnson.'"
I still think Green will end up as a prop, I think we need one prop and one backrow forward, my pack next year would be.
Props watts, lynch, green, Bowden, new signing, young player promoted maybe Ryan wilson
Backrow Ellis, Westerman, whiting, new signing, Pitts, Hadley, kent, starling, young player maybe turgett.
I'd be happy with a halfback, young winger and 2 forwards.
As we seem to sign all ou players from Cas I'd look to buy Craig huby, as I think he is a good prop, but woud improve even more at hull.

| Isn't thompson supposed to be a back rower? Looks bang average to me and there must be as good players coming through our junior ranks. I'm not keen on us signing average players who will block the way for our own youngsters

| He started out as a back then switched to the 2nd row. Because of Cas injury problems he keeps finding himself back in the threequarters though, so he's only played a handful of games in the 2nd row. A bit like what happened to Richard Whiting.
He can play full back, wimger, centre and 2nd row which could come in handy. he played for England schools and he's already an established first choice at 21 years old or so. Could be a useful signing I would think.

| Really cant see us making these big signings everybody wants. No decent Nrl players will leave dont think and most of the better super league players are under contract

With Green you're probably correct, problem is nobody except PG sees Pitts as a prop. So if he's determined to play Pitts at prop then yes, we do need a 2nd rower.
Agree with you about Huby, is his testimonial over yet? Got a 1 in 4 try scoring record and kicks goals too!

It's promising that Pitts has been playing at 13 recently rather than as an out-and-out prop. I know injuries have brought it about, but hopefully his performances will improve with the slight change and he'll stay there. I'd have him and Johnson sharing it, personally.

Good point. wire will sign their excellent hooker while we get their 3rd choice sluggish winger/centre/2nd rower.
Looks like we#re turning into cas circa 2011

thats my main bug-bearer regarding our recruitment, we never sign players who look like they could be top draw... i recall the many conversations weve had coming home from wakey when ryan atkins tore us apart, and the times when sammut was at the crusaders, good player we said, but of all the players from crusaders we could have picked up for nothing, we sign a 34 year old journey man centre!!!, you couldnt make it up.... then to cap it off, this season we sign a self-admitted past it 2nd row namely galea!!

Do you ever post anything positive on here? Every post I see from you you're moaning!

| I do find it funny that the worse the player seems to be, the more believable some people find the rumour.
Apart from one guy on here, has anybody heard this rumour? I know people at Cas and they've heard nothing of the sort. It's just BS and the reactions are laughable.
