Do we need another winger?
You could argue potentially, we need a high-class one more than a centre or FB. We have Johnstone who's world-class, then we have Walmsley who's quota and never played SL level and many people doubt whether he's good enough to be a quota wing. Then we have Russell who's towards the back end of his career but will do a decent job. This kid's a 6ft 5 age group international, his ceiling seems massive. If it happens it doesn't appear we're getting the rough end of any deal IMO and tbf Powell and Mills recruitment hasn't gone wrong so far.
Tbh Powell's mates with Noah's dad, it's part of why he brought him over from Wire, so there must be a good reason he'd be willing to let him him go after steadily bringing him on since he arrived and has talked highly of him.
Hull KR were making moves for him anyway and seemed to value him more than we do, given our relative strength in his position. He's still going to be out on loan at Hunslet even if he goes according to the article so Hull KR see him the same as we did, someone for 2026.
