| Didn't even know Blair had one!
Good news, but now the 2016 recruitment needs to be exclusively British.

Obviously we need a centre (this year if we can), but we need to beef up the pack for next year, where these will come from is anyones guess.

If Rugby League Rocks, then Hull KR is its Soul.: |
|
| Kelly and Blair staying for 2016 is good news.
Here's a name to wrestle with. Macauley Hallett. Thought he was outstanding at the end of last year, but not a mention this year. Is he long term jnjured?
Expect we will sign a new centre and a big back rower. I would release Donaldson and Ollett from their contracts on the grounds of size. There are bigger scrum halves than those guys, like Luke Gale for example.
Cox needs to grow a pair and step up.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Luke Gale is cackamallabab.
Ollett is small but runs good lines, didn't have a good game on Saturday but should be retained, needs a better hairstyle.
Cox has annoyed me for a at least two and a half seasons, eighteen months ago he seemed to be beginning to fulfill, he was one of the Travis Burns crew who believed his own hype.
He's done nothing this year, and it's so frustrating, he could and should be a top drawer player.

I asked this question on t'other forum as I thought he looked a good prospect last year. The generally feeling from those who'd seen the 19's this year was that he'd gone backwards and wasn't playing well at all. Would be a shame if he doesn't kick on because he looked the right physique for a top flight centre and seemed to know where the line was. Hopefully he'll find his form at Newcastle and can get a place back in the team.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|
| Cox has been poor for a while now you begin to realise why he couldn't get a game when we were so low on forwards I'd release him if he doesn't improve

I'd add a Fullback to the list of requirements, plus the need for a Hooker if we can't tie Lunt down to a long term deal

Good point, we haven't had a decent full back since Briscoe left us really. Hope Lunt will stay on though, he is one of the top 3 in SL on his day.

The full back role has changed dramatically since the Briscoe days. I still think Dixon is the long term answer to full back.

| Lunt won't be here next year and even if he was gonna be surely we should be slightly reluctant about signing somebody who has spent over half the year injured? Our back row needs more. All our players are much of the same? Solid defending workhorse types. Since his injury larroyer has been half as effective as last year which is a shame as he was a real line breaker. Tho he's played a slightly different role this year. We need a full back/centre/prop and 2nd row for next year IMO
