Kevin Brown is Salford bound, matty smith is a potential, on loan to Wire from Catalans and with Maloney going to Wire, unlikely to feature much. Myler rumoured, not been great for Leeds, but out of favour if Gale is coming in with Lui.

Good cover at outside backs, Minikin in for Shaw on the Wing, Linnett as a running second rower I think would add value and threat, rather than just a yardage 2nd rower, he can do both and play decent minutes.

Obviously halfs are needed, plus another solid prop or second rower should be top priority, maybe one of each, that will lay a good platform.

Ryan hampshire available,leaving wakey and the fans rate him highly,versatile.Would be a good signing imo.

We have signed matty gee from london for next season,24yr old back rower.

I guess we're preparing for life in the Championship in 2021.

Matty Gee probably outplayed our two back rowers this season, young enough for Smith to develop too and i doubt he'll be on the same wage as Tomkins

Sammut may be being released from Wigan. I realise he's not top drawer in terms of HB, but at least that is his dedicated position rather than us trying to 'manufacture one' in NH words.

What is he classed as, overseas wise, these days?

Rovers signing strapline “young and hungry” read into cheap and available.
They say it’s the hope that kills you, well I won’t be dying next year

The problem that I see with this is that he's cackamallabab.

Still need at least 1 hb and 2 props (aswell as Parcell and Minikin) and the squad will be pretty decent, not a play off challenging squad but hopefully a younger hungrier one

They spent about half the amount FC did on their squad. Their respective positions in the league makes interesting reading.

Rumor Mill stating Sammut may end up in Championship as all Super League clubs searching for a half back are all in negotiations with others?

My point being that Salford would be classed as cheap and available yet look how they played and where they finished. If Smith can get us playing like that ill certainly be happy

Slightly OT, I had a look at the 2018 squad list earlier... https://www.hullkr.co.uk/hull-kr-reveal ... d-numbers/ Striking that only six of the 32 are expected to be with Rovers at the start of 2020. Quinlan, Masoe, Lawler, Mulhern, Oakes and Dagger. When you think also of those that have come and gone since, like Vaivai, Drinkwater, Tomkins and maybe Lannon, Minns going, returning and going again, plus the loan deals, the turnover has been pretty remarkable, even for a promoted club.

Yes I realise that. I was showing that money does not always buy success. You need team spirit and good coaching. You can say the same about Cas. Being able to identify players with potential and develop them as individuals whilst moulding them into an effective team by good coaching has been achieved at both clubs. Tony S the ability to do the same for us.
