According to an interview with him in the Aussie press:
"Kelly has a get-out clause in his contract to return to Australia and has been linked to Manly who are looking to replace departing halves Dale Cherry-Evans and Kieran Foran"

Don't shoot the messenger.

I'm disappointed that Albert refers to himself in the 3rd person during a press interview. Bit poor form that.

But he signed a two year deal and yet in the Hull Daily Mail today he said "I think there is some interest. I've only heard rumours and my manager is good and will take care of that. I'm open to anything at the moment" and "I can't say anything about next season. All I can say is that I'm leaving everything to my manager."

Presumably Rovers aren't too happy about these comments if there's no get out clause.

Taylor will prove to be a cracking signing,would have made a big difference if he'd been allowed to come this season imo.

It's a quote from the article, you massive gormclops.

Abbreviated for clarity.

To keep things "on topic" I'll just say that maybe he'll sign for Hull.

I heard today he had one eye on going back to NRL.

The other eye is still attached to Justin Carneys finger.

Leeds are after Widdop as Sinfields replacement, he'd be a cracking signing for anyone in SL

Massey and Millington would be 2 we should be looking at.

I'd look at Julian Bousquet from Les Dragons , Definitely at size and aggression to our pack and a player who's caught the eye when Ive seen them play.

When is tony back in hull with our new star signing

When passes go on sale again.

On sale now

Oh yeah.

If it's Pritchard I might buy one.

Isn't Pritchard pretty much injury prone nowadays?

Nailed on then

He had a bad injury that made signing him last year a worry. He's fit again now though.

According to Ali's NRL rumours,

We are interested in Parramatta's Luke Kelly...he's a 6 or 7

He also thinks Manly want to replace Cherry-Evans with Richie Myler!

Maybe getting us & KR mixed up? Swap a Kelly for a Kelly?

Sounds like someone is just working their way through the Aussie phone book....

Widdop doesn't sound too keen to leave Aus according to the NRL website news story - contracted until 2017 over there and playing well

It would appear from the previous 13.5 pages no-one has any confidence in our youth set up, nobody good enough to come through so we don't have to make at least half a dozen signings (the figure that seems to be bandied around)?

For me a top quality hooker is the most important position we need to change, followed by a bad mother loving prop, someone brutal and uncompromising. In known circles there aren't many, none OOC, wonder if it's worth someone trawling the union scene in the lower divisions?

That said I think we need to hang onto Green, he was knocking on the door of the Knights in 2013 but has gone off a bit since then but is still only 25
Bowden is only 23 and is doing ok, we have some relatively young props when you think about it (Watts 25) plus we have BTW (21) add in Paea if he's staying + Ellis if he moves there that's not the worst but certainly not the greatest, we need at the bare minimum 6 props in the squad.

Green and Bowden haven't progressed at all and lack aggression. I think Feka has been a shadow of the player he was when he made his debut last year (though not helped by lack of game time) so that leaves us with Paea (if he stays) Watts who's inconsistent and a 2nd rower turned in to a prop. I think overall we have big issues in the pack unless signings are made, I agree a top hooker is also a big priority though.
