Gallen for a year, dont shoot the messenger ha

I'd take that

Another Coal Train

He's probably the best available who can replace Ellis

Abdul "considering" staying at Rovers??? Bye then!

To be honest it's a typical HDB article, with no evidence or quotes from anyone including the player, Radford or Sheens.

I don't see him coming back, as I don't see him getting first team action at Hull as he would be 4th choice HB and he isn't Radford type of LF.

At the start of the year I would have been disappointed with Abdul not coming back, but with the form of Connor I wouldn't be too bothered.

He should be playing in SL next year though, so if Rovers dont come up I could see him at Wakey.

He'll decide at the end of the season (i.e. if they come up he might stay, if not he'll be back with us)

That's the way I see it.

Me to, would be major coup for hull

Would be quite pleased with Gallen for a year and the option of 2nd year.

Swapping Abdull for Will Oakes ?
Is he any good ?

Definitely has promise but not up to SL standard yet which is why we sent him to rovers for a year

Paul Gallen? Ffs....

Gallen as in the guy that got banned from all clubs/activities etc for a year due to performance enhancing drugs? The Gallen that attacked the Australian doping agency during its investigation, the Gallen that came out on the radio and stated he hadn't taken anything then pleaded guilty and hammered out a punishment/sanction from ASADA along with the other doping cheats, er, no thanks.
He's also 36 as of next month and the wedge we'd have to be paying him to lure him away from Australia I think we could do better for the money, we also have much better props at the club and also two young upcoming forwards that would be missing out on their development.
Gallen's own words only a couple of weeks ago.

“Would I leave the Sharks? It would have to be a very, very, very good offer for me to leave the Sharks, so no, I probably wouldn’t (leave),”

Oakes to Hull is simply not happening, too important to Rovers, source couldn't be much better.
If it's Gallen, and we're resigning Michaels, I guess that puts paid to the Paea rumour.
