I'd be looking at bringing in someone like Connor Wrench or Jayden Myers, add some competition to that position

Unless we can do some deals for a couple of forwards and pay Sao off.

Is Wrench available?

Wrench did his ACL not much point in us signing him.

Not sure but they have King and Tai as first choice and Lindopp coming although, he is at an age where he will wa t to be more than a back up.

I didn't say sign him, someone like him, an up and coming centre, but more experienced than the likes of Westerman and Dawson.

Just dont see Ed C as a starting centre. We look weaker than the 2024 season at centre.

Pretty sure Myers is banned for the first 4-5 games of next season, not sure if there's anything else in the championship worth a look maybe Kieren Gill, the other option is to pay a fee but unsure who is realistic and how much cap we have.

I agree with that but the reality nobody gives a 29 Year old a 3 year deal that must be decent enough to be worth relocating from the North West just to be a back up or squad player. The club think he can do a job as the starting centre think that’s always been the plan, maybe he’ll surprise a few people.

I agree. Chamberlain should be a squad player or bench player at best. I've seen enough of him to suggest he is solid and will do a decent job but not good enough to start. As DSJ1983 stated he's been given a 3 year contract which would suggest he'll be more than a bit part player.

We really need a decent centre and another forward preferably a prop. Easier said then done.

said all along he will be a starting centre with Hardaker and giving him a three year deal is a joke.
We are really going places with that strike partnership which will send shivers through S/L opposition with their pace and power

Bet the comments about Chamberlin have made your day

I don't know what you were really expecting, the cap has clearly been massively mismanaged over a long period of time, it's going to take a few years to get the balance right.

Myler was never going to just come in, snap his fingers and sign top players out of the blue and players coming over from Lancs way are going to want more than just a year, a comparison would be Sutcliffe who I'd imagine was on a decent wage being replaced by Hardaker who's more than likely not going to be but we won't lose anything ability wise and can utilise more cap elsewhere.

By the time Myler and any sort of money came in most of the sought after players had already signed for other clubs meaning we have had to go with steady players to try and stop the rot.

We're starting from the bottom and need to steadily build upwards, players like Chamberlain, Hardaker, Holmes etc... will do that and allow our youth to progress without immense pressure. Myler and Cartwright will get it right but will need time and patience.

Morgan Smithies has started following Hull on Instagram.

Probably just to keep a check on his mate Rapana. Unless he or his partner are homesick.

Don't see it happening, but his main position is loose forward, doubt he would move to play another position.

Another to add to the list though

Byrne
Sutton
Bateman
Walmsley
Smithies
Vaughan
Bullock

Will end up with Ruan

Hell of a pack that .
