That's how I've understood it, based on the Mail interview and a brief clip of the Radio Humberside interview.

names names names please

The fact he says 6 TO BE ANNOUNCED due to the anti-tampering deadline, then has a go about the absurdity of the rule, says to me it will be twelve. Also means the 6 players are all SL based and is why I think the other prop and halfback are more than likely NRL based.
Liked his comment on this years recruitment, and his questioning of Wades professionalism.

I liked the bit where he said he was [iacutely[/i focussed on getting FC back to the top.

That's how I see it, although I thought more might be on the way out. I had about 15 going!!

can anyone link the interview i was in the ale house when it was aired.

could well be mate, last i was told there was 12 definately going

Crikey 12 seems a lot, not unhappy with that but I hope we can gel quickly next season.

I was also impressed with his summation of the youth set-ups. He doesn't sound like he's a fan of a joint academy side from Hull and can see all the negatives and very few (if any) positives, apart from saving a few bob and that didn't seem like it was at the top of his "to do" list. He went so far as to say that even if the RFL mandated a joint Hull Academy team, he wouldn't be happy with a draft on any of our under 16s. Just shows again what a bunch of short-sighted s we had in charge before.

1. Mckinnon
2. Manu
3. O'Carroll
4. Ellis
5. Turner
6. Moa
7. O'Meley
8. Sharp
9. Burnett
10. Martin
11. Aspinwall
12. Lyne
13. Pearce
14. Tickle !!
15. Horne !!

I'm thinking more and more that Tickle may go for a fee at the end of this season - with that fee being used on a Bradford back rower.

I think you could be spot on with 14, (think Horne will stay), not shocked but I never actually counted them up ....fair bit of money there and after listening to AP I feel really positive about next season tbh.

I'd go with -sharp,martin,o'meley,manu,moa,o'carrol,turner,ellis,lyne,aspinwall,tickle,burnett,pearce and horne?

so 13/14

sorry smiggs, my comp took that long to upload i dint know you had put your list up!!both the same though haha. staffs thats exactly whats happening mate, fee for tickle straight back into the side for halfback/bradford 2nd rowers

whitehead would be the only 2nd rower from the bulls id like to see us sign
