| Quote pmarrow="pmarrow"The squad is improving and that is all we can ask for. Sure it would be great to be sat here frothing at the mouth with the prospect of Marshall, Slater etc playing at the KC next season but signings like that won't happen til we prove ourselves as a club IMO. We tried to get Chase and it hasn't come off, but not through lack of trying.
I go into next year thinking the squad is already better then it was this year and fully expect us to improve on finishing 6th. The two signings which are expected to be made will finish the jigsaw off and we should have a strong squad for next year.
I am hearing though we are in negotiations to pay Seymour off and no new signings will be made till this happens. Retaining Aspinwall and Mcgoldrick plus a new Scrum half will rely heavily on this.
Ellis, Mcgoldrick, Watts , Pitts, Crookes, Arundel , Johnson , Holdsworth and Galea were all not here at the start of the 2012 season but will be for the 2013 season. They are all good recruits and whilst some of them may not be stars yet they have the potential to be in the future. If you think of all the youngsters who have gained first team experience this season and will be squad members next season you can't deny the fact that AP and PG are improving this squad as promised. Just be patient and get behind the team, do our part in showing the worlds best this is the club to play for.'"
These type of signings wont happen for a very long time again in SL, due to the salary cap in the NRL and the exchange rate.
It's the first time in years that I cant remember a SL club making a big name signing for the NRL. |

Fans are hung up on a Scum Half with very good reason. Watch our playoff defeat to Warrington and look at what we lacked...a kicking game, creativity and some game management. We've lacked it for a while and most fans in RL know what we lack. Having leaders such as Ellis and Galea added to the squad will certainly help but we above all else needed new halves. Holdsworth will be very good but, he needs a partner.

ADAM PEARSON SEEMS TO HAVE LET US DOWN ON THIS FRONT. WE WAS PROMISED GOLD AND WILL END UP WITH SEYMORE. I DON'T THINK ANY FC FAN CAN SAY HAND ON HEART THEY ARE HAPPY WITH OUR SIGNINGS BESIDES ELLIS AND HOLDSWORTH. HOPEFULLY AP CAN PULL A RABBIT OUT OF THE HAT BECAUSE NOW IM STARTING TO GET WORRIED

We finished 6th with a slim squad loads of injuries, we've made good signings what's boosted the depth of the squad, Horne wasn't bad at fullback he'll be better this season if we don't sign anyone else, Pearson said 2 more coming in, so lets not panic, without the stupid mistakes and injuries we would of been top 4, stay calm and trust gentle and Pearson

| Quote Airlie st paper boy="Airlie st paper boy"Guys reading from afar i have to be honest and state this signing frenzy is a bit of a farce and will be glad when its over! granted Mr Pearson hasnt helpped with his July Interview but understand his reasons for his actions at the time. I agree a quality injection of personel with the correct quality, youth or mindset was required and more inportantly two halves with a running and kicking game between them, I think we have one of them at the minute and hope the other is shortly to follow then we can put recruitment to bed and focus on the task ahead.
What is really bothering me though is the lack of focus on the brillaint potential shown by the young guys brought into the squad last season, Green, Bowden, Crooks and Lineham and young Cunningham it pains me to see when people post these fantasy teams with the new player automatically in a position, why?! Tom Lineham is a brlliant prospect and Chris Greens form in the last few games was top drawer i believe they both have the potential to be internationals by the end of next season if there progression continues. I think we should focus a bit more on what we have and what they can be rather potential signings.'"
My god, talk about archetypical Hull fan. Have you actually watched us for the last 6 years? Potential is the most cliched word in sport. So why exactly have we a lack of focus on the "brilliant potential" you point out? IDIOT |

The OP has merely presented his own reasonable opinion for the purpose of stimulating debate. You don't agree? Fine, that is what a discussion board is all about. Was there really a need for the personal abuse? |

Are you his mum? Do you regard typing the word IDIOT in BLOCK CAPITALS as personal abuse....lol? Read the post, it is full of conjecture and supposition. In the Agar and Hetherington tenure Hull FC were the only club in 2011 not to blood an academy player. This year we have Lineham, Bowden, Crooks, Green et al and the OP (is that forum speak for geek) attempts to create debate by making an ill informed comment about the clubs policy in bringing youngsters through because we signing proven quality players. (I am now going add an emoticon because it is trendy and hard)

You need to read the opening post again. And then offer an apology. You've completely misread it. |
