Jake won’t be the main man in NQ like he is here

I'll stand to be corrected but I think it was reported that his main reasons for coming to Hull were to play regular first grade and be at a club that values him. His decision to go back so early seems to contradict that.

Maybe he does not feel valued?

Maybe he's returning to Australia for family reasons, instead.

I think that's a big part, chance ti have another crack st the NRL and be closer to family.

Cas in big trouble, not sure they have much worth signing, Broadbent as others have mentioned. Mellor (has big Hull connections)?

Wouldn't mind Innes Senior either.

Would be a lot more value in Broadbent than Tindall
Broadbent is also a decent running half back
good signing if we could get him is Cas are relegated

Mellor's Mrs is from Hull and her family are FC fans

I'd have both, see no reason why would couldn't sign both, offers utility value too as you say.

Just would have to wait to see what happens, but I'd be have a word with his agent.

They certainly do look to be in real trouble when comparing them to Wakefield on current form. Cas don’t look like they can put in any sort of fighting performance.

Looks like Radford has left Cas in bigger mess then he did us. Think Last has an impossible task to be honest.

IMO a lot of panic and arm waving by some about the lack of signings. Smith will be well aware of what we need. I imagine a few signings already in the bag and he will be pushing for players who fit the bill . We brought him in to turn FC round and I believe that's what he is doing.

Hearing G Ellis is leaving end of season?
