To replace who?


Short term Michaels (and play Fonua at centre)

I can't see Fonua staying past his contract (hope I'm wrong).

I expect us to keep Kelly, so would be a pointless signing, I don't expect a lot of movement at Hull for 2018. Depends on what Ellis and Mini do.

I'd be quite tempted to make a bid for Briscoe as I think Leeds might be tempted to release him.


To be quite honest I wouldnt go near Briscoe. I thought it was going to be a huge loss for us when he went but infairness we coped well without him and even playing in a dominant Leeds side over the past few seasons he has hardly been pulling up any trees performance wise and just doesnt look the same player that left us.

He also now seems to struggle to put a run of games together without having some kind of injury or another.

The big dilema for Radford & Motu is how and who are we going to replace Ellis and Mini with as those two are such pivotal players for us both on and off the field. Ellis was always going to be a big signing for us at the time and has proven his class even at his age now. Mini for me was an unknown to an extent and overshadowed by his brother to a degree and many were not sure when he was signed but boy what a signing and player he has been for us. I would have to say for me Minichello has probably been the best overseas signing we have had at this club since the days of Kemble, Leuluai & O'Hara.

I really hope Motu can replace both of them with the same mould of player.

I haven't seen or read anything from Motu so far this year, assume he's still at the club?

Can you even imagine how much he'd want paying, more than Ellis by a distance I'd imagine?

And he is about the same age as Ellis, I'd prefer someone that could play for the next few years, I'd expect Motu (he is still here as sits behind me at the KC) to use his Kiwi connections.

Possible Simon Mannering and maybe a young kiwi forward.

We possibly are gonna have other more pressing positions to fill but if I were the likes of Leeds I'd be going all out to recruit.

We definitely need a forward, would be great to see Sam Moa back, and I'm glad Motu is still around, he, and Radford seem to have things covered. Not booking Wembley hotel just yet, or Manchester! If Kelly, Sneyd and Shaul stay fit, with Ellis I'm hopefull of another good season.
