Any idea on what position the big name is? Assume not SH given we've offered a fee for Abdull?

No idea, couldn’t get any of that. He clearly knew, but he wouldn’t tell me.

I think we should just consider Nene’s mental health at the moment - he’s another one who’s had struggles in the past and the whole having a kid thing can be stressful as. Whatever he needs to do we will crack on.

But he should still be acting professional and speaking to his employer if hes having issues.

The Abdul thing seems highly unlikely to me. Hull KR are on very sound financial footing, starting to do very well in SL, and also appear planning for the future very well. The idea that they would sell their most creative player ( at 27) to a rival, defies logic unless they have real concerns regarding his fitness. That said, who knows what goes on in the mind of GH.

I like Abdul but pairing him with Frawley we are going to have a very good kicking and organising game but we will also have slowest halves in the league.

He recently signed a 2 year extension to his deal that already had 2 years on it so I wouldn’t of thought we would sell him

Exactly. He's a Hull lad, at a club on the rise. Why would he even want to come? Doesn't make sense so likely true.

GH should resign and Leeds can bring in Peter Hood, paving the way for Steve McNamara to make his return to West Yorkshire as head coach.

Sounds promising!

Surely not Nick Bradley-Qalilawa. Getting on a bit now.

He’d take GH at Cas, as GH is a Cas lad and on great terms with their stand off
