There won't be anything in this. Gentle's a big admirer of Heremaia and, when interviewed after signing for us, Heremaia was the first player that Gentle mentioned because he was happy to have him in the team.

If you heard these 'whispers' earlier, why is this the first time you've mentioned them?

These 'whispers' will have probably come from the discussions on this board about whether it was worthwhile us having Heremaia whilst he was injured for so long.

I asked a question of Pete Smith of the YEP earlier with regards to Kyle Amor signing for us, below is his response

Peter Smith ‏@PeteSmithYEP
I understand he's agreed a 3 year deal on double his Wakey money. They will get a fee.

I hope he was only on 25k then.

I would like to win the lottery but it's not gona happen!

Have you ever thought O'meley is playing well just to earn a new contract.. Yes he is playing his best rugby now, but despite some of his games he doesn't really bring much.

its often players play better due to renegotiating until new agreement is made. thats why think its a good move to stop all negotiations until season is over so they show full commitment.

Intriguing tweet from James Smailes

What's with the 1am tweets ?? ok for me as it's 10am here LOL

Watching Murray!

or tweeting murray

Me too lol what a great game by Murray, he might get a decent haircut now he's won

Unlike your predictions then, you was adamant Galea wasn't signing for Hull, then back tracked when the rumors gathered pace.

I am refreshing the HDM site and Fc site , like i was trying to buy 1D tickets on ticketmaster .

Hearing a rumour that it's only 300 quid for a box for the Giants game !

I defiantly keep Heremia for another year, improved more and more as the season has gone on, can play hooker and halfback to a good standard.

Wouldn't want him FT halfback and Houghton can do big minutes and is too good to have sat on the bench, so would be tempted to play Heremia at LF a few games next year.

I hope the news is Briscoe signing a new deal, would be better than any signing news IMO.

The Hull Dail Mail stories are:

Tickle definitely a Hull player in 2013

Gentle says 'time running out' for Chase deal

Moa could be in contention for next Sunday

If this is true then surely enough is enough time to move on before we lose out on the back up!!

Smales on twitter also says Chase deal not done yet both ways (assuming he means with UKBA and Cas) and Hull readying to drop it.

Don't buy the ready to drop it line one bit, do you think AP is going to pay top lawyers to take the case up for him then drop it without getting a definitive answer either way?

I think this is Hull calling Castleford's bluff, fed up of being messed about.

Maybe the signs are not looking good, or they have been told it could take too long to get a definite answer.

We need a big prop more than we need chase. holdsworth and seymour would be OK behind a dominant forward pack

The thing that's frustrating is that people say he's 10000000000% signed... Mcrea comes out and says we have set a deadline... And then extends it a week... And now in the hull daily mail Peter gentle says 'we haven't set a deadline'

Confused

Did they not already try that with what McRae said about a fortnight ago?!
