Same again, suppose they've only known about the signing for 3 months so not had much time to put something decent together

But desperate for friends if you have to reply to your own posts. You’re a proper ray of sunshine. Let’s talk about the signings, shall we. I’m happy with all of them up to now, youth and all happy to learn. Not saying we’ll rip up trees but if we can add another scrum half/hooker, I’d be happy with Cust, still only 25 and not going back to Oz anytime soon, plus he’s got a point to prove after being released by Wigan. Think Ashworth will play second row, after the conditioning team finish with him.

He could have done a good job promoting Citizen KANE Evans

Heard Cust is close, but late interest from Catalan.

Also spoken to Wigan about Shorrocks

We need to keep JayOk well clear of Kubricks 'Lolita'.

Matt Shaw denied anything in the Cust deal when I asked him.

I'd be happy with Shorrocks, would give us a proper 13

Is Shaw really the best source of info?

Cust and Shorrocks wouldn't be too shabby but still need a second rower IMO

He seems to be the most reliable journalist. I'd believe him over Callum Walker who does the LE articles.

Shaws the best out there, I'd say 90% or higher happens, has links with Appleyard and Tomlinson too, so will get the inside track on the two Hull clubs.

I be very pleased with Shorrocks, upgrade on Cator, more aggression in attack and defence.

But yes still need another backrower, although reading Ashworth comments think he might be playing there next season.
