Motu was General Manager at Hull from the start of 2014 to the end of 2017.

Pritchard left after a year didn't he?

He did but that was smart business that allowed us to get Kelly.

I really worry about our backrow and lack of strike centre.

To be honest i'd look at who is available and sign the best player, in any of the positions we really need.

and Canterbury stopped paying part of his salary too

Have we replaced Feka as player welfare officer? More cost cutting.

Lee Crooks is combining this along with his other role at the club.

Can see us making a move for Nikorima or Milford

Milford maybe, although he tunrned down Leigh in the off seaso, no chance of Nikorima the way he is playing.

Like you mentioned O Sullivan would be a perfect signing.

If it's not a long term signing and someone is going to improve is at 7, i'd rather wait until next season for 7, give us a greater choice.

What about Allick signing and getting Russell on loan (see how he goes).

connor watson would be a good signing if he didnt have injury issues.

Unlikely - for one thing he's good mates with Hoy.

If we are after a 7, sign a 7 not a utility player like Watson.

Allick & Russell would probably be best case scenario for us. Russell isn’t as bad as people make out and Allick could be a star in SL

yes you are probably right.not many good 7s knocking about.volkman looked ok,but he has long term injury now.

Agree!! Allick would tear it up over here and with Pele (if he can stay on field) Ese Ese, Ashworth etc we would have a real meaty pack, I know he recently signed extension and he doesn't appear to have played this year yet but unsure if hes injured?

Just seen that, I hope so. It seems to indicate other quota players are being let go. Sao, Carlos and Okonbur can all go for various different reasons although I suspect we are stuck with Okonbur for at least this season.

Got to be Carlos who can go. Not going to have any impact this season. Okunbor has remained fit and could still turn a corner.

I’d rather we stick with a player who has a slim chance of contributing positively than one who’s on more money and constantly unavailable.

Always the chance we’re going to try sign a non quota players. I can’t think of any apart from Kade dykes, a full back who played for Cott tigers

With all the talk of expected quota spots next year given who will be leaving or already gone and the obvious need for a new leadership group, who is everyone's realistic targets? Surely we will have around 3 or 4 quota spots? Plus more cap apparently to maybe bring in marquee level signing?

Id love something like the following, maybe wishful thinking but whats everyone's thoughts?

Halfback - Anthony Millford (Top quality international halfback and give Charles 1 or 2 seasons developing and learning being in and around him)

2nd row - Jacob Allick (beast who would rip it up over here and doesn't play regularly in NRL)

2nd row - Mike McMeeken (Get in before Wakefield do the deal and throw some decent money at him, vastly experienced and wants to be back home in the north of England, would be a fantastic bit of business

Centre - Jack Broadbent (Always liked the look of him, exciting 3/4 who could add speed to our back line

LF - Sionie Matautia (bit of a reach but is OOC at end of season and may want to join a project and be part of a new challenge, plus fellow samoan for Sao, Millford etc)

Recon okunbor or Carlos could be gone as well reading that.

It'll have to be something big to re interest a lot of fans who have had enough, myself included.

I suspect he’s just talking bull to any journalist who will listen and spin his narrative.

Article has a few uses of the word "potential".
I expect 0 of it to come to fruition.

Bingo just the owner spouting his usual waffle. We will announce a new shirt before any players.

Apparently rejected many interview requests to the HDM this season. Interesting he’s seemingly spoken to YP instead.
