Alot can happen in 2 months.

FWIW, I don't think Abdul is a bit limited to be a too SL halfback and is always injured.

Abdul was one of Rovers form players before his injury . I'd take any biff with Him & Peters with a pinch of salt imo .

Just had a look through Zero Tackle and there are still a lot of players there with no contract:

Hawkins
Chee-Kam
Drew Hutchison
Connor Watson
Flanagan
Ethan Bullemor
Tyrell Fuimaono - follows Hull on Instagram
Joe Vuna

I am sure we have done our research, same as with EseEse so I trust them to get the right player

Hawkins, Watson and Drew Hutchison would all be good in SL, but as you say they'll have done homework on them.
Flanagan if he can get his Roosters' form back , the rest I don't really know - Bullemor always looks okay, but haven't seen him really get a good run of games, so hard to judge.
The latest that someone told me about Abdul was that he was considering retirement, to pursue a secular career away from the sport, don't know if there is any truth in it, but he also said about the argument he'd had with Peters as a factor, so there may be some truth in that rumour, who knows?

He's a young player with things to learn, yes he made some mistakes at Wembley but the game was very high pressure and you can't beat experience in those situations. Lets see how he plays over the next few games.
