And they say Bradford have a problem with communication.

Nope, he's gone to Catalans

What about Stefan Marsh from Wigan, apparently he wants more game time, could be a option for centre and wont be on massive money.

Are there any lower league players who you think might make an impact in super league (current contract aside)?

Everytime I watch Halifax I wonder whether Bob Beswick might be worth a punt. Not the biggest player but quite skillful and might be an option for loose forward. Think he played a bit of super league with Widnes.

I always enjoy watching Menzie Yere play. Positional defense isn't always the best but can often clatter them. Very physical player. There's also Missy Tallywacker who often stands out for Sheffield at fullback.

Any thoughts?

Might have to let somone go to get marsh in...........lancashire bus is already full -bryn,platt,sibbit,ainy

Misi signs for Hull KR.

Averageness personified.

Sounds perfect for us.

Nah, he's British.

From a Hull fan? Oh the irony.

. We only dream of the day we can bring in a Partick Ah Van (who?) or a Marc Herbert (who?) or a Royston (who?). We've made some questionnable decisions with regards to overseas players (which I don't agree with at all - see our board) e.g. Obst but he was only signed after our youngster severely injured himself in pre-season or Phelps who was only signed after our young BRITISH full back let himself down for the 3rd time.

The quality of our imports is far greater than yours.

This season perhaps. You have had some right rubbish in recent seasons however.

May I also suggest that Shontayne Hape, Big Les, Ben Harris, Michael Withers etc may also have been classed by you as "Who?".

God I only wish we could have signed a megastar like Motu Tony.

But how long ago were they?

Tony's a good player, his 18 caps for the world champions would prove that for me. He was also a big part of a CC winning and grand final reaching team. Tony is an odd example, surely Hutch Maiva or even Luaiki are better examples?

If you want to start a pìssing contest, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would prefer you to do it someplace else and on your own time?

BK>Phelps
L'Estrange = walk into your side

But, tbh, I don't really care. We've had a few poor ones, but we've brought more than our fair share of overseas quality to Super League over the years. It doesn't really affect Hull.

Have you had a better list than Vagana, R Paul, H Paul, Vainikolo, Vaikona, Hape, Harris, Morrison, Menzies etc etc?

Add Gartner and Brad Mackay to that list

Don't forget we signed Vaikona from Hull.

We will have at least as many overseas players as you next season, so not sure why he is having a dig, we have had plenty of average ones also such as Lauaki this year.

Anyway back to rumours, Danny Washbrook is rumoured to have sign a deal with Bradford, IMO he has good potential to be a ball playing LF, been moved about a lot at Hull and think he needs to move on, outstanding in 2006, but never really kicked on form there.

would add a bit more fuel to the rumour that Donaldson is on his way. I think I'd rather have Donaldson though.

Possibly, but could just mean Donaldson is being given a bit longer to develop. Which wouldn't be a bad move given the lad is only 19

aye although if we are close to the cap already, Washbrook signing would mean we would have to release someone first?

Well there was the rumours of Platt and Sykes being off before the Donaldson one happened

Danny Washbrook is not a bad player who has suffered from being played at SO. Nevertheless, in our current predicament would he improve us? And, could we reasonably expect him to come here and thrive in a different atmosphere with a team playing well and going forward?

The answer to both those questions is probably 'No' for me so whilst I'm not knocking Washbrook I don't really understand the point of signing him only to have it trotted out later that we're unable to sign better players because of cap restrictions/financial considerations.

I'd welcome Washbrook to be a ball playing 13, when was the last time we had a [uregular [/uloose forward who could act as a pivot and take some pressure of the halfs? I'd also like to retain Donaldson as I still think he has good potential.

I would hope Washbrook could realise some of his potential given a run at 13, in our situation (can't really promise anyone the realistic prospects of playoff rugby or honours and year on year underacheivement) I think it would be a good squad signing.

Is he that different from Addy? We already have a loose forward with potential who we haven't bothered actually playing at loose. If this rumour has any legs I'd be disappointed.
