HULL KR coach Justin Morgan has dismissed reports linking him with a move for Gold Coast Titans half back Scott Prince.
Prince is still contracted to the Titans but Morgan said he would be interested if the 27-year-old became available.
But at this moment in time, he's happy with the squad he has.
"We are not looking for wholesale changes" said Morgan.
"We have people we are looking at but we are keeping those names to ourselves.
"We feel we have a very good core of players that we can take forward in the next three or four years.
"If Scott Prince was to become available, yes he would be a player any team would want to talk to.
"But we're just concentrating on the players we have in our squad at the minute."

| Even if we are interested in him, Justin has done the right thing dismissing it.
Far too early to start speculating, you run the risk of upsetting key players (James Webster).

Are you allowed to talk to him at this stage though if he is under contract to the Titans?

If (and I'm led to believe he has) has a Super League get out clause then yes.
Alternatively, his club may have given him permission.
Anyway, why the concern - are you jealous?

Oh no! I am agreeing with this B&W
If we get the franchise for three years we will have to use it to develop local talent because if we dont it will go MASSIVELY against us in 2012, as fine a player as he is we should look at the sort of money he would cost to get that development up to a good level instead.

Development money does not go on the cap so don't see the problem as we have extremely wealthy backers who provide unconditional finance as they are all die hard red and whites.
Plenty of investment is being put into our youth structure and I'm sure it will pay dividends. There's no big panic anyway - aslong as the club produces a player a year good enough to make the grade as it's about quality not quantity.

Its still turnover and the reality is we need to REDUCE overseas signings over the three years not increase. If we were to lose three overseas players, then maybe we could bring one really good one in, but the other two will have to come from within to achieve the aims for the second wave of franchises.

Why would that be of concern?

The board have the money for both.
The academy talk is getting boring.
Last year you lot predicted the first year of these rules would hit us but it that isn't happening. We could play five academy players in Whelham, Ianson, K Netherton, Lovegrove and Menzies, and still beat you comfortably so what's the big deal?
I'm looking for the Justin Morgan to produce players who can actually make an impact rather than mediocre overhyped players like Tommy Lee.
In the meantime, world class imports provide a better environment for the youngsters to learn.

Not one of them has proved good enough at Sl level yet, they may in the future but not yet. One of them is an Aussie FFS.
oh and let me know when you sign a world class import.

Welham hasnt and Lovegrove did well at the end of the season, I am talking about proving themselves over a season or least 20 games plus.
Also you got Lovegrove from an NRL club, hardly the home grown players we are talking about.
Also good to see Zod mentions Lee, (who has done ok for Hull, but I agree hasnt lived up to his hype), but fails to mention players like Hall, washbrook and Wheeldon.

3 (and 2 tries), but I take your point. That he and K. Netherton have started to show some promise has been one of big plusses of the season so far. Rovers have got plenty of work to do in developing their own players, but at least now we can start to compete on equal terms. Be interesting to see how I'anson and Menzies go when they get a chance.

| Some of the drivel on here is hilarious!
I cannot believe what bile comes out of some rugby league fans in this city! from both sides I hasten to add.
A rovers lady said to me on Tuesday;
That Motu's out for 6 weeks. He's a rubbish player
I said Motu's a good player and it;s Manu out for 6 weeks
She said, yeah Manu, he's a rubbish player
What was funny is that this was after stating Rhys Lovegrove was already one of the best players in the league!
Also that Hull have a team full of aussies
Happy days.
Just out of interest, has that I'anson played for you lot yet?
Just noticed Zod stating that these 5 academy players would still beat us. Interesting..........................

And?
Can you tell me where these Whelham, Ianson, K Netherton, Lovegrove and Menzies started out?
When you start producing your own players, you can make digs at Hull's young players.
Also seeing as Rovers are now in SL, when are they going to start signing the best young players in the city.
