If it is a top player,which I doubt, we won't be finding out till after origin.

I'd have gone for Lazarus or robson for this coming season, but I can't see wests letting Lazarus go now.

I don't have a great knowledge of NRL mate and have never claimed to tbh, so don't know alot of the players that get mentioned on here (i don't have premiersports, so just rely on the odd match report). But as i've said, and i'll try to drop it from here on in, that if we are trying to speak to players of Cronk's standard for 2012 or maybe 2011 then you will know which players will be available for transfer or early release perhaps which we should be looking at?

I just wanna see a quality player replace Longy when he goes, we bloody deserve something special!!

The biggest challenge we'd have is to fight off the nrl clubs(bigger salary cap) for the half backs.

There's at least 3 clubs in need for next season.

Every year since 2003 we have always looked for short term options halfback options in the hope of a top class player in the next couple of years, It wont happen. Hull are not a big enough club to sign a proven world class halfback, even if we managed to outbid the many NRL clubs who look to need changes at halfback (plus compensate them for the loss of Origin/test opportunities) we would just get outbid by the likes of Wire, Hudds, Leeds, Saints or Wigan.

We need to find a young player with potential and go from there, topclass halfbacks ae the most sought after players.

If that's true then no point in retaining Calders. We would have Briscoe, Sharp, Lyn and Hardaker.
