Could be the same reason, that Carvell left Hull FC for Warrington.

Got to love these jam tomorrow signings, in fact I'm already looking forward to 12 months from now when the 2016 rumoured signings will be unveiled.

Was told on Monday about Taylor by a bloke at work,his take on it is Taylor's missus/GF wants to start a family so he is prepared to move back to hull for family and school reasons.was also told off same bloke that Dobson and Tommy luleuai for nxt season

I was told by a Hull player that Taylor is a done deal. His missus is homesick and wants to come back to Hull.

The same player also told me that Hull were talking to Leuluai and to Willie Manu.

Have we borrowed Dr Kashkows elastic cap?

I've heard all the rumours regarding Taylor but I'm yet to be convinced he's actually commited to Hull.

If Dobson returns to SL i'd be surprised having heard him tell a close friend his reasons for returning to Aus.

Pritchard would be a great signings but I just can't see it for so many reasons.

I'd take Dobson above all them

I'd heard that Pritchard was in the frame for 2016.

I'd personally take Manu back over Ellis.

I'd have

11. Ellis
12. Manu

15. Tuson

If fit Manu would offer us something different to the backrowers we have in place, so would be Ok with it for a year.

halfback is still the position we need the most.

I know Taylor's family and believe me it's a done deal, plus I am hearing Green, also from Wigan is on his way here and not Luleuai.

I'm having trouble believing that any players would want to leave Wigan to play for us. Granted Taylor may have personal reasons for doing so but it would be a huge backwards career step.

I can't believe how many people on here know Taylor personally don't know how he has time to train and play with all the talking to Hull fans he's doing

I can only think that, Taylor aside due to his personal reasons, that we're offering a "too good to turn down" money offer.

Money?. I wouldn't mind paying top dollar for proven players. Have a smaller squad with proven quality while at the same time getting rid of all the dross we seem to have.

Has anyone said they know Taylor? Closest I've seen is Taylor's family. Not Taylor himself.

Didn't see it myself but read on Twitter that after the Wigan game Taylor made some sort of sign towards the Hull fans which some took as an indication he was coming.

Does anyone know anything about that?

So you'll have

Taylor, Green, Dobson, Watts, Paea, Colbon might as well chuck McDonnell in there and you'd have the basis of a title winning squad, I'd pay good money to watch that oh wait I did and it was crap.

Not being funny but is Taylor that good that a team would throw 'can't turn down' money at him. If that is the case then I struggle to see the logic with what you already have either playing or in the academy.

Not being funny but if Taylor's not that good why was your Chairman so anxious that he shouldn't leave you for us?

If he's after coming back to Hull for personal reasons as has been suggested then he wouldn't be someone that needed can't turn down money.

Id be worried about Taylors motivation on leaving a double winning side to come to one that will miss the playoffs. Top players have more ambition than that.

Just picking up on your own previous surmising..

Ah right, sorry I'll explain better. Aside from Taylor I was addressing the Green rumour too. By saying "Taylor aside due to personal reasons" I meant that attracting any other Wigan player would probably require a big money offer whereas Taylor will probably accept a decent offer rather than a "too good to turn down" offer because he has other reasons for wanting to come here.

My source (very close to the club) said there are 2 players to come here with Wigan connections. One's a done deal.

Motu's handiwork.
