With Cas I think they have a good coach who seems to get the best out of ok players they won the league by 10pts but as a Hull fan how many of those players would you have in your first 17 |

A lot of the Cas squad weren't necessarily perceived as being all that good when they signed there though. It's about finding the best value in the market you can, and creating the best culture you can.
Hull's approach has been different, and impressively clear sighted: 'We can get fees for Westerman and Lineham, and bring in Sika Manu and Mahe Fonua, instead?!' |

"fans" were up in arms about you signing abdul this timed last year but he was instrumental in your promotion. tommy lee will have had a pay out from saints so won't be on much and you must have a massive chunk of salary cap left so I'd expect 2 or 3 big signings yet

It wont be Cooper Cronk but I would expect a forward with size and experience and maybe a back with bulk. Most 'big name' overseas signings have disappointed it tends to be the unknown ones who really work. |

He wasn’t unknown it was the fact that no one would entertain him in Australia he was bad news, Rovers gave him a chance and he had one good season he then messed Rovers about and left without even saying good bye.
Oh yes we want another one like him. No thanks |

Rubbish if we got one good season out of somebody and they did not cost a arm and a leg take it and he did say good bye he spoke to me and my mates at the time and said he would love to come back but the club was skint |

Eh you clueless t#t.
Won a title first season, trophies and man of steel second season. Came back for a third season when the club was a car crash. Carried a shambles of a team whilst nursing a chronic foot injury.
Best loose forward the club has ever had.
Are you a Rovers fan? Maybe one of those hysterics on social media Hudgell referred to. |
