| One last transfer line for 2018. Understand that Hull FC are considering a move for North Queensland centre Javid Bowen. By no means a done deal but something the Black and Whites are plotting. More in @leagueexpress.

Is this the guy who only got an appearance due to the guy who got injured who HKR have signed?

Also one was released and another one got a new contract.
Which one was released?

Lets hope its not Albo.He was supposed to have final clearance to begin contact rugby again a couple of weeks ago but nothing reported since.
Sounds like there is some mileage in this report.
Wouldnt mind the signing as he is tall and fast.We do need some speed on the wing and he would suit our high kicks to the corner.
Seems to have been very quiet re Talanoa this pre season so no surprise to see him go.

This is correct, saw plenty of Linnet though and TV's do have commentary you know now so that enables us viewers to listen what the commentators say.

Quote ="jamesg794"After reading Pearson's comments I for one am more excited than I have been in a long time regarding FC moving forward. It's gone from having no recruitment for next year (which has been so obvious that we need) to bringing in fresh faces. It has been so frustrating that we continue to play as if we have the biggest pack in the league whereas really this is far from the case.
Because of Radford's reluctance to play any different to battering it through the middle I feel that we really need to add some serious size to the pack. I personally don't think are backs are bad at all, they have been given no favours from our forwards and it's annoying that we have no structure, depth and set moves in attack to hit the outside.
I would love a player like Fifita to come in, as well as someone like Murdoch-Masila, however this seems too unrealistic. It is also blindingly obvious that we need a new face in the coaching team to set up attacking plays. My dream scenario would be;
Out:
Paea - personally don't think he makes much impact
Talanoa - free up a large amount of cap space (I assume). Miloudi was playing well for us when he slotted in, I think he could do a job on the wing
Manu - I think he's been a brilliant player for us however he will be on a big salary and we could use that up for a big impact player
Green - too often injured
Abdul - wants to leave so let him
Mini - again brilliant servant for us however doesn't offer what he used to
In:
Fifita
Murdoch-Masila
Jones
Another prop
Attacking coach
It may seem a bit extreme with all the departures I've suggested however Pearson has said he's making big changes and they would free up a lot of cap space. What would your ideal action be regarding in's and out's?'"
It was never going to happen . Pearson admits .
Adam Pearson made a strong statement last September when he slammed his Hull FC players following their 80-10 defeat at Warrington Wolves.
He promised ‘three or four proper signings’ after the club decided to change their policy of not recruiting for 2019. The first-team arrivals included Levy Nzoungou, Danny Langtree and Matty Dawson-Jones, while Jordan Thompson returned after a year away.
But Pearson also said the club would move on under-performing players, something which has not come to fruition.
The Hull owner has now conceded in an interview with The Yorkshire Post that it was never truly possible.

We have no quota spots so something else would have to happen for this deal to be done

| From current rumours Cas gave lost Gale for the year. Seems that if he doesn't play a competitive game then he won't count on the cap, so that would free some money for them to sign Talanoa if they really do want him. Of course they may look to sign another half or be happy to just thrown in a youngster.

The Talanoa rumour keeps emerging.
We can afford to let Talanoa go and Seb would for me be the impact we are looking for off the bench

| Where would this Naulago fit in with the quota? Seems odd giving him a trial if we can't fit him in?

Maybe serving in the British Army gives him a UK passport and that gets round the rules and regs.
No idea but could be the reason otherwise like you it seems odd especially if he impresses in the trial games

Ah ok, yes possibly. Unless he ends up signing for Donny this year with a view to joining us for 2020. We'll see.
