| Quote ="Dave K."If campese is available he would be a great signing and certainly worth the risk, he had two badly hit season in 2011/12, apart From that his injury record isn't that bad, he would be the best half in SL IMO.
No way to Collis, is a decent enough player, without being anything special, but has real injury problems.
I think we will stick with the 3 centres we have now and look to promote another youngster maybe Jack Logan.
Out of the 10 players mentioned to be going by Ellam, I can't argue with any of them except maybe Watts, but even then I wouldn't be devastated. I personally think we need,
A prop, maybe 2 if Watts goes.
Two halfbacks to replace Miller and Horne
A backrower who can break tackles, a player in the Manu style.
A winger depending on on how Lancaster goes.
extra coaching staff.'"
Sums it up for me though id have Talanoa and Lineham with Lancaster as back up
Would love to see Campese here plus maybe that kid from Leigh or go all out for Sneyd

One big oversea half and an English based one, O Brien from Warrington is an option aswell as the other two mentioned.
You don't need world class halfs if you have a top pack and good coaching structures. Wigan are the perfect example last year they won the double with Smith and Green and while they are both good players, they aren't world beaters.

It was said in commentary a few weeks back with him & Campese looking at SL option . Tom Learoyd-Lahrs is on his way out of the Raiders too but he's had to deal with a lot of injuries .

| I'd take campese like a shot , unless there's some serious reason why he's available . If it's only on form , he wouldn't have to show his top nrl form to be a success over here . If we do get him and with him been a stand off , would that mean we're after a scrum half as well or would we pair him with miller , surely think that would be unlikely .

I heard about Campese looking at SL.

He's a stand off, we will be getting a scrum half, & a few more decent players to add to our squad, happy days if we can gather there signatures.

We have a winner.
IF Smith & Green hypothetically signed for us, within 2/3 months, they wouldnt have the same effect & influence.

We have heard this all before, we often have tried to sign good players, but mainly it hadn't come off.
This is Radford only chance to stay as Hull coach, if he pulls off some great recruitment for next year.

Doesn't matter if they're a SO or SH. He leads and organises a team, has a kicking game and can create opportunities. That's what we need.

You don't watch the NRL then?
Campese is well past his sell by date.
Absolutely awful this season - worst halfback in the NRL.
Overweight. Lazy. Slow. Won't run with the ball. Can't tackle.
Just catches & passes.
Has hell of a boot on him though. - When he's fit enough to play!

Well Radfords recruitment so far hardly inspires confidence.
he's signed 7 players, some o.k , some poor, but collectively bang average.
Wilf alluded to the fact that sacking a coach mid season isn't a great idea ,
but as Radford is obviously out of his depth, does Pearson allow him to sign our next season batch of players?
He should be nowhere near recruitment unless he can prove he can get our underperforming players up to scratch.
I.m.o we have only 3 players playing consistently to their ability. Westerman .Ellis & Shaul (possibly Houghton).

| Quote ="C for Cuckoo"I thought Taylor was an open secret at this point. That means our prop-pen for next year is Paea, Bowden, Green, Taylor, Feka, Watts and BTW. That seems like enough for now. That said, I don't think Bowden has signed a new deal yet so we might need another.
By the sounds of it we wont be signing squad players if we can avoid it so I'd expect our back up winger to be Lancaster from here on. If Talanoa gets an extension then we'll have Talanoa, Lineham, Crookes, Lancaster and Stark in the first team. That is enough numerically although I'd like to see Crookes shipped out and replaced with someone good.
I like Pitts but haven't seen enough of Tuson to judge. Hadley looks like establishing himself and Thompson has surprised many with his performances. I would also expect to see Turgut some time soon. So our second rowers will be Ellis, Tuson, Whiting, Thompson, Hadley and Turgut. I don't see much room for Pitts, sadly.
My wish-list is short and reusable every year. We need a scrum-half. If Miller can kick on and do the job then I'll be happy. If he can't then I think we need an older, established player for HTW and Reece Dean to learn from and eventually displace.'" Poor young lad reece dean was laid up I'm hospital for a while with an issue and not even 1 club representative took the time to pop and see how the lad was. Radders didn't even know the las was in hospital... Shocking..
