The more I mull over it I slowly start to think we could do much worse then McGilvary for a season.

He would be our best winger, one of the few wingers who has caused Swift problems this year.

Crazy if we don't make him an offer.

If we could keep him fit. Imagine the meltdown on here if he got big injury first match

Think the only sticking point on that is he seems unlikely to want to come this far East reading a recent article though he does say he'd be interested in a full time 1 year deal. Whether he would be committed enough to come to Hull? Who knows.

Mate i completely get your position and why fans like you are thin on patience i honestly do, I've been like it at times myself over the years but i just feel like for the first time in god knows how long the club is in really good hands with proper rugby brains in charge, Grix will be a breath of fresh air around the training ground and with him, Stanley and Tony taking a new look side forward next year full of speed, aggression and fingers crossed passion and hard work we wont go far wrong, You only have to look at Salford as one of the other forum members mentioned, there side has never been littered with top class NRL talent, they have a few standouts (Lafai, Croft etc) but other than that they are a team made up of hard workers who buy into the way of playing under Rowley and i genuinely believe we will have similar next season. Come back to me when we in grand final in two seasons hahaha

Any movement on the Sailor signing?

The last i heard was away at Cas and it was a done deal, he was coming in as a 6, not seen anything further but i have been told its 100% done, given how long it takes for club to announce signings after the news in HDM breaks we may be looking at 2025 by time we announce him but still confident this is all tied up, i think there will be flurry of news on signings once seasons finishes in NRL & SL

Jesus Christ couldn't motivate some of our contracted players, we will still be stuck with some of them next season. I wish some of them showed the same commitment as Adam Swift, did more work than some of our forwards.Too many ordinary players got extraordinary contacts.

i said Brian Smith not Tony Smith
