Never rated Clune anyway……….

Maybe Grix can bring Joe Keyes with him?

The disappointing thing about that try is we should have been watching McQueen all game . It's a move Hudds use every game or the ball back inside to McQueen . Poor read by the Hull players .

Tired and stressed at the end of the game. To be fair they dealt with him and the whole team pretty well all game before that, and it was a decent line from McQueen. Good player.

Reckon you could be right about HDM knowing a bit more than they're letting on. The Watson and Blore rumours have been floating around for a while now, why would they mention it now

Because there is too much feel good stuff in the mail about HKR

Tony has already tried and tested Keyes with us. Released him after 2021 season. He’s a decent championship half but definitely not super league quality.

I think we’ll end up signing 6-8 players depending on what we do with Houghton, Taylor and Savelio. Taylor and Houghton worth another year for me, but Savelio can go, misses far too many games and blows hot and cold when he does play. Getting full use of the 7 quota spots will improve us massively.

Hoy - Litten
McIntosh - Barron
Tuimavave - Scott
Sutcliffe - Wacokecoke
Tindall - Martin
Trueman - McNamara
Clune? - Harman

Sao - Ashworth
Houghton - Balmforth
Fash - Brown
Blore? - Severs
Bentley? - Staveley
Cator - Armstrong

Watson?
Lane - Jebson
Taylor - Gardiner
Pele? - Laidlaw

Doesn’t look too bad to me, but ideally a more proven winger like Davies to replace Swift or another big forward like McMeeken to get Lane out the team. Hopefully one of the young back rowers overtakes Lane anyway.

Gunna take another 12 months for Smith to sort fully, with either new signings or youngsters stepping up.

Apparently Peter Hola is resigning at raiders so that’s another one crossed off

I honestly think most of these players linked with clubs and SL are made up by their agents to get new or better deals.

I'd bet that half our signings next year won't have been mentioned on here or social media yet.

I think that's always been the case. Frustrating but we have to be patient.
