With him and Houghton gone that will be all the 2016/2017 Cup winners no longer playing for Hull.'"
Agree Carlos has been brilliant for us but due to recurring injuries over the last 2/3 seasons it's the right decision.

| Quote: Chris71 "To be honest whilst he may have some pace, his overall skill levels suggest he is still pretty much a Championship standard player, as you say he just hasn't kicked on. Think St's possibly rushed in to signing him on the back of Grace going to union, when a couple of clubs showed some interest including ourselves.'"
surprised they didnt get Swift back in if they know he wanted to be back in Lancs

Can't be certain. But I'm sure Barron and Martin out pace the majority of SL players. They've hunted enough down to prove that when lines have been broken.
Our issue has been attack and getting them with open space in front of them.
On saying that. When space has been in front of them they've not really been caught.

A lot of forwards which you would expect wings to do
Like them both as i had previously said but to get the best out of wings you need a good centre with them
Chamberlain and Hardaker in all honesty arnt that

I'll never get the Hardaker signing for both on and off the field reasons but he'll be first choice centre no matter so let's see how he goes.
I'm hoping that Chamberlain will play the role of a solid utility squad player who can be relied upon when needed but definitely not a starter.
We need another centre of better quality but where we'll find one I haven't got a clue.

| Apparently Myler knows what Hardaker is like off field, but he said you won't get anyone who'll work harder on the field and he'll play anywhere he's asked to.
The Rapana signing I was unsure about, but the testimonials from Raiders fans has convinced me it's a good one.
Sezer the same. We were all over Clune last year, and he's a lot better than him

| Neither Chamberlain or Hardaker can pass, Hardaker plays much better at fullback, is generally strong but has no pace, Chamberlain is deceptively quick but can’t bust a tackle, is defensively poor and drops atleast 2 balls a game. No coincidence when Leigh are fully fit neither feature and Leigh are winning without them.

I dont think anyone can dispute the credentials of Rapana but he is a winger and until his injury was playing full back.
That signing to me doesnt make sense particularly if its marquee when we are crying out for a quality centre
Why dont this club just identify the player position we need and go all out to fill it?
I doubt this is what has forced Walker out but even without Walker we have Hardaker,Litten and Moy and have to say full back is still Hardakers best position.
I know we have been knocked back by several overseas players including Sailor but these two latest signings even though they are experienced NRL starters smacks a little of desperation rather than we have signed the players we really want

We'll have to trust Myler's judgement on Hardaker like of course all his signings so let's hope he doesn't make a fool of him. I'm still not convinced.
I was hoping and expecting a dynamic running half to compliment Abdull but when Sezer was announced I was more than disappointed.
Sezer isn't a deity like Rapana is with the Canberra fans but I was surprised and encouraged when I read the West Tigers supporters comments on facebook.
Both Rapana and Sezer bring the character which is exactly what need but I'm not so sure they are the right fit.

Hardaker has only missed one game this season and he played 27/32 in 2023.

Agree with all of that. I'm not convinced.The one consolation I'm taking at the moment is that most of the players signed are an improvement on this year's. A very very low bar though.
The one thing I'm hoping will make a difference is actually having a fully resourced coaching and conditioning team.
