As mentioned on the rumours thread, I talked to AP and Chase after the match,

AP mentioned that it "was getting complicated", but that he really wanted Rangi - but also that he had a back up lined up just in case

I asked Rangi if we would be seeing him at the KC more often next year and he covered his mouth and said "I hope so"

I still have hope, sounds to me like Cas have just decided to up the fee

I can see Sammut being on our back up list.

That's what I think too.

Also Tim Smith at Wakefield or Luke Gale at Bradford.

Tim Smith has just signed anew deal at Wakefield.

tommy lee

See his try yesterday? Was quality.

Wouldn't mind him being our backup 1, 6, 7 & 9.

First tries since february though. Nowhere near as good at half back as seymour

Hence 'back up', unless we're going to pay Seymour £100k plus just to back up 7?
He provides more than McGoldrick would, IMO.

This is a back up in case the chase deal doesn't go ahead. Can't see seymour being here

I doubt Sammutt is our back up, more likely to be an Aussie half, Beau Henry?

I'd rather keep seymour and spend the cash on a big, experienced prop which is what we really need.

Don't see amor, ellis, johnson and galea being adequate replacements for o'meley, moa, tickle and manu

Totally agree if we fail to acquire Chase.

Yep.

Agreed

I thought Chase was nailed on, aswell as Bateman.

Hanbury at Widnes would be a nice alternative.

Chase is nailed on subject to visa..

However not a problem if he does not get it apparently Dobbo is sat at home waiting for a phone call

Agreed

Didn`t anybody notice Chase hanging around the Hull players ,chatting for a while after the game? Could be nowt in it of course.

Wouldn't suprise me Bet, what with Hulls pulling power

Interesting 4 weeks ahead..

Certainly will, it'll be interesting to see if anyone's actually got a rumour right lol

We already have a rather extensive rumours thread where all this is being discussed at length.
