Indeed.
London, with no chance of remaining in SL, would be foolish to spend big and so it looks like a hard slog for them.
Cas too, look to be prioritising tarting up the Jungle, rather than spending on players.
Hull are the biggest disappointment of the three.
Smith is a decent coach and for him not to be able to turn them around seems to point to some major problems on the black and white side of Hull.

I wonder if Hull will drop to a B grade if they finish down the table again

I think they'll be OK if they stay above Cas in the league.
But it's close for them.

Cam Scott, a wing or centre been linked to us apparently

Were is he from thanks

More likely he'll end up at Hull KR if he can't agree a deal at FC, similar to many others who've downgraded across the city. Might make Corey Hall even more surplus to requirements than he already is at Rovers and give us a chance of bringing him home in 2025. Would prefer that scenario.

It was mentioned by someone on Saturday at the game that he was going to you lot , Now the local rag has a story on it saying Wakey are showing interest .

On Corey Hall, enough time has passed to post this I think; the club let him go in a rush because they believed he was one head-knock away from a serious, potentially career-ending situation.

I don't know where they took that opinion from, but they wanted him off the books quick and HKR popped up with an offer.

My cynical friend suggests the rumour was started by someone called Heal Nudgell.

Think I've seen him a couple of times but don't recall him doing anything spectacular...is he any good ??

I've not seen that much of him myself.

Mrs EW says hes struggled for game time, due to more senior players in the centres in the last couple of years.

I'm going to the Hull derby before the Fev game, so I'll take a close look at how he plays, if he plays.

I will bw honest, I agree with Wollo, about Corey Hall. I also think Corey went straight into their squad when he left us

Corey was looking a very good prospect with us. I also thought it was a bit daft when when our coach thought he should play second row. Whatever has gone on, his move to HKR hasn't been good for his career and development in my opinion.

Couldnt agree more.

I didnt get the move either to second row, though I get it when there are injuries etc.

At the moment at centre, Hull KR have Opacic, Gildart and Hiku, and even if he was utilised on the wing, which sone centres are, they have Ryan Hall and Burgess. They also have Evalds, but looks like hes gone to full back.

Whichever way you look, Coreys chances look limited in the three quarters.
