His amateur days, Yeamo was in the halves!

But that would mean Pearson been shown up making another mistake by backing Radders, to eventually get rid. Although it would be the correct thing to do.
We'll be stuck with Radders for a couple of years I reckon. Playing awful attacking rugby.

Brett Delaney would be an example of someone signed and playing at centre who made the move into the back row.

I actually think our rugby has been pretty good when our first choice halfs play together, been a few games in which we have looked good, we don't finish enough chances off, hopefully with a bit more class on the backs thus will change next year.

Squad so far for next year

Shaul
Talanoa
Logan
Carlos T
Naughton
Pryce
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Ellis
Mini
Pritchard
Westerman
Watts
Green
Whiting
Thompson
Bowden
Abdul
Lancaster
Fash
Turgut
HTW?
Dean?
Downs?

3 more signings and a couple of detentions also.

Assuming Ellis moves to prop our second rowers next year would be Pritchard, Mini, Hadley, Whiting and Turgut. This doesn't include our loose forwards Westerman and Abdul both of whom can play second row if needed, or Washbrook and Thompson.

Surely we should take the chance of playing Turgut or even Jack Downs in the event of injuries or suspensions?

I really don't see that we need Yeaman even as back up, unless someone is leaving.

We've looked OK in patches but on the whole we look slow and ponderous with ball in hand IMO. It starts with poor distribution from dummy half and gets worse and slower the further wide the ball gets

you forgot that we also play too deep so by the time the player receives the ball he has to make six or seven metres before he gets back in line from where the ball was played which makes it easy to defend.

Too deep...personally i've thought we've played too flat for years

Im with bonaire. Line us far to deep. By the time our strike player gets the ball he has to make 5/8 metres before hitting the line.
the type of rugby you have to play these days is flatter. If we were flatter closet to the defensive line it gives the defence less time think what is going to happen. Wpukd also make our attack look faster and more dangerous

playing to flat has ruined rl.most passes are borderline foreward now.

Major #hullfc recruitment update in the Hull Daily Mail tomorrow.

Fonua and Washy in
Rankin and Sa out?

Smailes telling him to call it significant, rather than major .

Later says an interesting development. Sounds a bit out the blue

There after another second rower thats the news

Unless someone is leaving,second row is certainly not our problem area,I really hope that washbrook isn't our interchange hooker too!!

Looks like Fonua and a second rower joing Washbrook, Tuimavave, Taylor and Pritchard.

So we have Mini and Pritchard with loads of cover and the club thinks we need another second row? And not a hooker or a replacement for Lineham? Bad joke.

If we sign Washbrook and another backrower then that's stupid, even without Ellis, who I still think will play prop, the backrow us easily our strongest area.

Our pack is pretty good this year, So we sign 6 players, 4 of which are forwards. I really hop that the HDM have got this wrong.

He'll play washbrook as an interchange hooker. Complete joke. He was useless there in his early 20s

Ellis to retire through injury ?

Looks to me like we will have a set of utility backs and no specialists

Thought Ellis was moving to prop???

so we have ...Pritchard,Minichiello,Hadley,Whiting.Yeaman,Westy,Turgut,
Washy,Fash who can play backrow.but it appears. we need another one?????

No problem with playing men deep, when done right, makes for attractive rugby league. Problem we have, is we do it at a snails pace, men stood still when they catch they catch the ball. no fluency to our set plays at all. Duck knows what we've been doing on the training field for the past 2 seasons
