Hadley hasn't been that good at Hull. with Horo you know what your getting

Nail on the head there, Hadley can't even get in the Hull side on a regular basis, Horo has been as good as any of our back rowers this season, why let him go for some unknown quantity from Aus.

And we don't know what we are getting with Hadley

Hadley was brilliant for us in his loan spell and the club wanted to keep him, id imagine we would jump at the chance of bringing him back. Also, i was not suggesting Horo has been poor.

In terms of a quota spot replacement for Horo, if he leaves, we might be looking at a known quantity already in SL. Id also argue Big Dave, Arona and Tupou were 'unknown' quantities to most of us on here and look how they turned out...

Thought Horo was due to retire at the end of this year. Think he's done reasonably well for us and is adaptable but maybe the club think we can get a bitmore from a quota spot. We can't just retain the same squad moving forward or we'll just standstill or more likely go backwards.

Would happily see Hadley return, don't think he's had a fair crack at Hull looking in from the outside but can't have been terrible last season as he made the Knights tour to PNG.

Shame for him as he seems to have stepped up and shown his worth since the injury 'crisis', but until then was nothing out the ordinary. Unless that was more to do with playing for a contract

When fit, Hadley has played, had a few injuries though, but can't remember many if any games he has been not picked in the 17.

I'd keep him at Hull for the right price whilst at Hull I've never seen him after other than solid so if can get a better deal then good luck to him.

I can't believe he wouldn't choose Wakey over Rovers when you look at the two clubs, unless he doesn't want to travel.

Didn't Andrew say he wanted to play at the same club as David...

Was just going on some posts I'd read and the sending out on loan due to salary cap issues. He was a really good fit for us in 2017 and pretty certain he would be again. HKR can possibly offer him a bit more than we can money wise to be honest.

Nick Scruton also chose the money (don't blame him fwiw), and look how that turned out.

Wouldn't blame any RL player for choosing the money to be honest.

I think letting Horo go for Hadley is a tougher question than just letting Horo go.
Hard to say how much extra we'd be getting tbh.
On the other hand, he was good for us 2 seasons ago, and although he hasn't ripped up any trees at Hull he has been playing in a less than optimal squad.
Still, Wakey staff know what they're doing, they'll know exactly what he is and what he will bring.

I'm trying to think who else could come back, what with Broughy and MCB returning this season...

Been excellent this season and covered a few positions and I'd be happy to see him playing for Trin next season but, Chester & Co have put together a fine squad and it's fair to say that they know how they want Trinity to play and what kind of player they need.
It will all depend on who is available and what we can afford.

Keeping the core of the squad together and improving overall for next season will be a tough ask, unless we can make it to a final (or two) and / or get more punters through the turnstiles.

He is apparently looking to retire at the end of the season

Jason Golden & Troy Slattery.

Thats not what he said in the interview with TC after the Widnes game!
Dont know where you've got that from.

Got it from Mr Carter putting the Wfd Express right on Twitter.

Yep MC getting the lazy journo told on Twitter.

I have heard a few rumblings over here in oz about wakey going for some forwards from the unhappy broncos next year.
Alex Glen and Pangai Jnr.

in 2-3 years time David and Andrew will play one year of super league at the same club and if david is to see out his wakey contract it will be at Wakefield - Andrew has already shown its not all about money for him by playing for tonga instead of Australia,it was a family members wish that they play one more season together

Nice thought but can’t see it coming off. AF is in an other level to his brother.

Maybe not in two years time. The NRL takes its toll and Andrew has seen a lot more action than Dave. Should equal things out a bit.

Don’t think Andrew is as creative.

Don't think David was till he got the Wakey shirt on his back so you never know.

I'll re-phrase it, I don't think Andrew is as crazy

I could see the brothers finishing there careers together
Why not at wakey

Tevita Pangai jr
That's defo not happening, most of the NRL will be chasing his signature for next season

I've not seen enough of Glenn to comment
For some reason I've never enjoyed watching the broncos

If the rumours are to be believed, then I think Glenn has signed for Hull, we have a lot of cap and quota places to play with with us losing Mini, Wsshbrook, Manu, possibly Westerman and Hadley
