Talk of Houghton going into the coaching team next season and it wouldnt surprise me

What would be wrong with that? If he's done or doing his qualifications he might make a good coach for the youngsters.

he might but if we are looking for another coach for the younger players then surely you put the position out to others and make the decision from interviews not because he has been a Hull Fc player

This is the problem I have with our contract situation, who thought it would be such a good idea to have so many players OOC in the same season? Just comes across as poor management

Some of thay could be down to the SKY deal ending tbf, if SKY cough up even less cash from next season then many clubs including us will decide to run with a few less senior players.

Looking at the NRL OOC list....

If their is an outside chance that JWH is coming to SL we should be all over it. He's exactly what we need in terms of leadership and accountability.

Saint, Wigan, Wire and Hudds would be all over it. We’ve no chance of signing a big name Aussie, unless we do a Chelsea and sign him on a 7 year contract

Our next problem is we are going to have to offer big salaries to tempt anyone decent to join. Players and Agents can see the club is struggling with questions over the atmosphere at the club. For some they'd take a slightly lower offer to say sit in the sun at Catalans, or be at a team with a chance of making the playoffs than risk the doom and gloom here.

Hope the club has the numbers for some ex players down under as well, surely theres some money to be offered for watching reserve grade NRL and finding a gem

He’ll be more of a penalty machine than Sao and spend more time sat in the stands?

Especially with our officials
