All hypothetical until the board make an announcement over the clubs future, but if they confirm we are to stay full time, which players would you keep if you could?

Overseas:
For me Josh and Maurice. Maybe Campo but the rest can go. Can't see Sio staying regardless.

UK:
Lunt, Minns, Jubb and Greenwood are the only one's I would definately want to hang on to. Dixon might be worth a punt against Champ teams.

Nothing stopping you spending the full salary cap and keeping your squad intact..... if your owner/board can afford it.

I wonder if addy, clarke and scruton will still come?

True, but until we get official confirmation of plans from the club we can only hope and pray they will continue to fund us. I don't recall anything other than the fact Sheens is going to coach us 'regardless of our SL status'.

As for players there's quite a few who can go. Most of the forwards for a start.

Lunt, Mantalato, Blair, Sio, Greenwood and Minns are top of the shopping list for me. I can't see Sio staying but maybe the others.

Will we have a team next year?? Not seeing it tbh

I think there will be a few in for Lunt

A tweet from Rob Crossland stating that the spine of the HKR family will stay but the board need time.

We need to give them a little space but time is against us already in terms of recruitment. Why the hell are all contracts null and void when you drop out of SL? I know we still haven't had confirmation we'll stay full time, but as it stands, we are now behind all the Championship clubs as well with little to no chance of getting bck to SL next year, or in years to come.

Unless the board announce something in the next few days and start recruiting, next season is already a write off.

Next season is true rugby league.

All right Oyster Bay

No irony in no mention of the ending of your boys career on this forum or by the club and this relegation this year is there..........wish him well.

Some at this club have got what they deserve.

Not sure I agree with the above and think emotions are still playing a part in these comments. Personally I think that if you stay full time, and I'm pretty sure you will, I can see you easily winning the Championship, I won't say go unbeaten as that would be a tall order but it wouldn't surprise me if you did.
As for the other comment re Lunty. Not sure too many clubs will be in for him, he was superb yesterday but doesn't't play like that on a regular basis, he only plays when he wants to.
Anyway good luck next season.

WE need to get rid of the crap players we got in over the last 2 seasons the one good thing about going down you can have a clear out but keep our best players

Ah, the old cliched "amateur sport is better than the mean , horrible Sky TV sponsored game that I used to love "...#barrylilley

Your comments are very much appreciated. He's covering up his feelings quite well at the moment and looking for work but is not in a great place mentally -- the game's all he's known since he turned 15.

Rob Crossland? How dare he. Him and Hudgell got you relegated.

No, the players did, and a lot of blame falls on our so called defensive coach as well.
