Think he’s partnering Andy Gregory in the halves (who’s just got a job as chef in Ferriby)

Is he working in Medicis with Elvis?

Really? where did this come from. - Tigers top metre maker before todays game.
Whether he still is after todays game I don't know - but he did score a hat trick!

Have a word with Mahe for us all here in Hull, he must be missing our superior weather.

Have a look on forums and Twitter, loads asking for him to to dropped, I've seen a few Wests games and he has been struggling with errors and defensive reads. Did well today, good for him, but not for us.

So who are rumoured targets for next year then? Hoping a couple of leading forwards that can bring direction to us, think in the halves and backs we've enough quality

Linked so far too

Javid bowen
Aubusson. Second row
Joel thompson. Second row

Bit outlandish links

Jared hargreaves

Hargreaves will be in demand in nrl but can still dream

Seen quite a few mentions of Aubusson and also references to Fonua, although his stock will be up after today. JWH just a pipe dream IMO. Surely to God we'll be prioritising at least one if not 2 front line props.

Props have to be priority, we've no grunt at the minute, unfortunately though theres no real players that catch the eye when you look at who's available at side of the equator

Absolutely agree about props as a priority (don't know from where). Compare our forwards with, for example, Wakey's. As I posted on the Wakey match thread, they have in their squad for tomorrow: David Fifita (6ft 4ins, 18st 13lb), Pauli Pauli (6ft 5ins, 18st 13lb), Keegan Hirst (6ft 5ins, 19st 3lb), Craig Kopczak (6ft 4ins, 17st), Justin Horo (6ft 3ins, 15st 10oz), with Tinirau Arona for good measure (he's a relative lightweight at 5ft 11ins and 16st 10lb)!

Great points about Wakefield's strength in depth in the forwards tomorrow. Exposes our comparative weakness IMO, and emphasises why this needs to be a priority.

Can you point me in the direction of these links please?

Just from what ive seen on this forum, some had links to news outlets case of scrolling back really

So joel thompson could be a goer
George burgess has been mentioned too

As a poster said theres alot of quality in reserve grade rugby in oz, can see us contacting motu and getting some help with names

Size isn't everything though.

The only really top drawer player you mention there is Fifita. Pauli is a handful. The rest are a bit meh.

Agreed. For as big as he is, Hirst is an absolute plodder.

Alex Glenn? c.newsnow.co.uk/A/983243953?-4338:2393

Alex Glenn? c.newsnow.co.uk/A/983243953?-4338:2393

Glenn looks like a straight Mini replacement to me. Would be a great signing to pull off alongside a decent prop to replace Ellis in the middle of the park.

George Burgess getting little gametime for the bunnies but I doubt he'll leave Oz.

Don't know anything about Glenn.
How good is he?
Hoping not an ageing Nrl player just looking for a pension top up.
If he's as good as Mini and Manu when we signed them, I'll be happy.

Glenn has been absolutely brilliant for Brisbane, and would be the best of all three, if he happens to sign with us!

Thanks.

I know not a reliable source but Wikipedia is stating he's signed a 3 year contract from next season.
Mischief making possibly.

In league express today it said about westerman talking to other clubs . Thought we’d have kept joe , doesn’t say if we’ve offered him a new deal or he’s turned it down . Maybe hull have offered him a deal but let him see what he can get elsewhere , like they have done a few times with players in the past and hopefully stay with us .

People being negative about aging players, id welcome any experiance and leadership. If we look at the players leaving and how weve struggled when ellis doesnt play we need leadership, presence and experiance

Ellis
Paea
Manu
Mini

Thats alot of experiance and leadership in ellis.s case to lose.

We cant just sign a lod of youngsters, we need some old dog savvyness

Can’t we keep Gaz just a little bit longer, say another 25 years
