B0llocks, I didn't notice the sticky. Mods, please delete

Sounds like more re-signings on the way. Bowden, Hadley and Green the priorities for me.Think Pryce will go, so question is whether we keep Michaels given we might want a quota spot for a halfback. m.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-FC-Ga ... story.html

Retain Bowden, Green, Abdul and Hadley.

Release the rest, use the extra 50k on Houghton.

I'd also look to release Talanoa of possible.

Think we need a top centre and half, Brough would still be the ideal choice.

Bit unfair on Talanoa but I agree with the rest.

Bowden is a priority as he has been outstanding and will get better.

Abdull needs a kick up the a@se but because he has undoubted talent I would give him another chance.

It is maybe harsh, but I don't see a place for him in our 17 and that should be a priority for overseas players. Just lacks the basics skills and speed to be a top class back, his go forward is great, but we have the cowards and other backs who can do that.

Need to make tough decisions to kick in, although it's irrelevant as there is no way Radford would release him.

Championship manager time...

Houghton should be top of the retention agenda, closely followed by Bowden & Hadley.

Pryce I expect will retire.

As good as Yeaman has been this year, I'd look elsewhere.

I'd let Feka go, but certainly retain him at the club for his Community/Foundation work.

Michaels & Talanoa (despite having a year left), are difficult decisions. I don't think we should keep both of them, but they each offer something different to one another.

Green - I'd be tempted to only offer a 1yr deal. He's been playing ok, but he has the odd game where he's brilliant, then he's almost anonymous for the next few. I'd like to see him make that step up in performances like Bowden has this year.

Abdull - really disappointed the way he's struggled to get in shape this year. It could be attitude issues, or something away for rugby, I don't know. Purely because he has natural talent and still only young, I'd offer a 1yr deal.

Ha.

I like Talanoa. He's full of beans and I'd keep him till the end of his contract just for that.

I can see Michaels and Feka leaving to give us the opportunity to bring in overseas players.

Yeaman might be good for another year but it looks like Pryce is off.

With my Champ Man hat on I'd bring in a centre and stand-off (for Michaels and Pryce), let Feka and Yeaman go and continue to lean on our reserves for depth.

Release Pryce, Feka, Michaels and Yeaman but keep the others.

Have been impressed with both Michaels and Yeaman this season.

I'd be tempted to give Yeaman another year to be fair (if the price is right) as he has done well since coming back in and for all the negatives previously has shown his value.
Michaels again has been great this season so far but as a player that takes up an overseas spot think he may be surplus to requirements for next season.

As long as whoever may come in next season is an improvement on what we let go then we can't complain

Pete Smurthwaite (PBS) has just revealed on RH that Motu Tony is in Australia looking to sign a Stand Off for next season. Interesting. If true we can forget about Brough. It gotta be Benji!

Oh dear Lord.

Time for the rumours thread to start.

Who else could we be looking at? Blake Green?

Soward?
