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 .

Harsh on Tiaki Chan

Turned us down.

We won't be getting Joe Bullock, he's signed a deal with Salford.

We seem to be running out of options.

I’d be shocked if anybody else came in, probably end up looking at mid season recruits

Depends on who is available. Can't imagine anyone would be thrilled at the 2 French lads from Leeds coming in?

Bullock is up and down and at 32 is probably past his best, he's settled in the NW too. Hill is over the Hill and again settled in the NW.

I don't think we'll sign anyone of note, maybe a project type like Ruan but think we'll keep our options open and see what comes up during the season.

I think we'll bring someone in but the quality of the player will be questionable. Probably championship standard who will be a squad player.

Bullock signed for Salford today, also looks like they are signing Sangere

We already have too many of those

I'm finding it hard to disagree.

Tbf , it is not a shopping list , it is a list of who is willing to join.

There is no "choice" it is who is available at the lowest cost.

I’m pretty sure that we will have actually approached a lot of the names mentioned especially if they’re contracted and shopped around like Bullock possibly Byrne etc but if they don’t want to move here or are out of our price range like you say it will eventually boil down to whoever is willing to join.

Liam Byrne pending

Understand the doom and gloom but
Money Talks !
20 miles west of Hull isn’t the back of beyond.
If kr can attract players like they did
Then why can’t we.
I mean a 1980s x 3 stand ground on Preston Road versus a 21st century stadium.
