support play is a major area we need improvement for next season
When you look at Leeds when they break there are always support players not just one but usually two or three options for the runner.
Our half backs definitely need to step up as support players

Some serious praise off the doggies fans .. Can't wait to see him put the black n white shirt on . I'm gonna start to grow a beard for his arrival

1 Shaul
2 michaels/Naughton
3 tuamuavai
4 Fonua
5 binman

I'd guess at. Said Tala back to wing. But off season could always change that.

Maybe. Not sure Tuimavave is a centre though.

More praise for our new man!

Was at the match last night and he was given that Tank banner to keep. Interviewed with his young son beside him he said he had hoped to finish his career at the Bulldogs and regretted having to leave but was looking forward to playing in the Super League.

Top work bringing those homegrown players through Hull.

TBF nine Hull born players in the XVII last night and fifteen appeared for the first team at some point this season. Throw in Lineham, non-local but who came through the ranks and even Westerman (ish).

He must be on good money to leave the Bulldogs

Not knocking your numbers but the lineham thing really winds me up as you think he is one of your own, he was a first team regular at York who found him before you signed him from them and loaned him back

If that "really winds you up" then you ought to get out more.

cant wait for frank the tank to play for us, exiting times imo

Highly ranked recruitment here (along with Lineham!) seriousaboutrl.com/4/post/2015/1 ... -2016.html

Pritchard is a seriously good player. He was in such good form last year that I'd be stunned if he didn't have NRL offers available, which is a plus because it means he genuinely wants to try SL. I'd guess a real key to Hull's chances will be keeping him and Ellis fit?

If we can keep our pack fit and most of them on the park we have IMO one of the best packs in SL.

Agreed. That pack looks incredible on paper. Exciting times ahead I think.

and first touched a rugby ball as a hull uni ranger, which counts for something

Heading over next week. PR machine cranking up as we speak I reckon, biggest signing for ages.

watched some clips of him on youtube, don`t think ive been as excited for a new arrival for a long time, think he will be an absolute beast in superleague next season, might be worth a bet on him for man of steel

We need to use him sensibly. He can't be doing 80 minutes every week for the next 3 seasons. Flog him like we have ellis and mini and he'll spend more time in the stands than on the pitch

Hope so. Certainly offers something different to what we have. Good to read that Shaul will be sniping around looking for his offload too, need to be all over that.
