Cas v Hull : Fri Jun 11, 2021 10:02 am  

Stumbled across being shown live on YouTube last night.

Was there an announcement about this?
I didn't realise it was on till half way through the 1st half.

Are there any others being shown in this way?


Hull forwards and backs simply too strong for Cas.
Impressed with Sao and Satae in particular.

its the 2nd game that has been broadcast on YT, last one there was complaints from journos about how few people watched it on there(RL is not popular) however it's hardly been advertised, promoted or pushed.

I mentioned it to a couple of friends of mine, dont think they used it.

Weird.

Cas couldn’t handle their big forwards.Something this club badly needs.

Ma'u, Sao, Satae and Savelio are all apparently out of contract as well.

For all the talk that the market is dead and that's why Wigan are signing fringe London players, there are some talented players up for grabs.

A team could acquire a pack featuring any of: Ma'u, Satae, Sao, Savelio, Bentley, Edwards, Sene-Lafeo, Kasiano, McIllorum, Jones and Prior and backs like Tomkins (S), Ashton, Manfreidi, Davies, Sezer and French.

Some of those will obviously have renewals agreed but not announced or deals elsewhere already signed, but there's some talent in that list.

Satae impressed me and I still think we should never have let Andre go.

I'd take Manfredi or Davis also to replace any of our wingers.

Didn’t think we had any choice with Savelio as he was off to Aus?

I think Tony Clubb is also available?

There are quite a few more if you want to go to that level. Ben Flower is another one if a club has a spare fiver and no ambition.

Hull amaze me with some of the big ,under the radar forwards that they manage to sign. Good club level forwards who are pretty reliable & get the hard yards done.
Meanwhile ,we are chasing prima donnas who give you half a dozen games while draining the club coffers.

We only offered him a one year deal and when it expired he left and went to Aus.
