tremendous news!

Good news, happy with that.

Awesome player. Well deserved.

Excellent news, as a lot of said on here one of the greats to put on the Black n White irregular hoops.
First team not training yesterday apart from Ellis, who was in on his own training on a watt bike. That alone just sums the man up. A true professional.

Brill news still one of the best in the game

Great news, on the pitch still one of the best in SL.

Only slight negative is Ellis time on the pitch played about 60% of games last year and about the same so far this year, he will be on a big salary (although took a pay cut last season).

We are desperate for another half and possible another centre, so I hope with the signing of Ellis and Mini we still have some money left over.

Whiting already gone
Think michaels will go
Pryce will
Feka will
Probably yeaman
Houghton ten years in so half his salary be gone

There is a very good half in that money

Great news on Ellis, up there with our best in my time.
On the subject of Micheals I personally believe that he has been outstanding for us even though his wing has been targeted quite often to good effect.

green and bowden will be looking for upgrades and a number of youngsters OOC who will be looking for more money if we keep them

I think we should release all the players you've listed as there's no room for sentiment. We also need to reduce the age of the squad. Michaels has done well but we should be looking for better with his quota place.

Even with upgrades we should be looking at a significant amount left on the cap maybe £250k? Speculation I know.

Good point about Houghton.

On my wish list is a quality NRL centre and hopefully Brough. I don't think they'll be many additions as we already have good depth.

Hadley next to be signed up imo

Brilliant news. Made my day to know he's here for at least another year. Whatever we're paying him he earns every penny.

Leader on and off the field , Even at 34 I still think he's one of the best second rows in SL . Pleased with the news .

Wouldnt surprise me to see Michaels offered an extension to his contract.
Well liked and respected by the club and hid team mates.
Gets undeserved flack from some on here for trying to cover up others mistakes.
I hope he stays

Good for the club and Gaz
delighted

One of the best I've ever seen play for us, great to have him for another year at least.

Problem is he takes up a valuable quota spot in a position we have cover in (lancaster and naughon). We need to start giving lancaster some more game time IMO

Hearing R dean might be on his way, and we are in for benji , interesting times

Lancaster is nowhere near ready for regular first team duty and needs to really work on taking a high ball.
He is one who would really benefit going out on loan.

Reece isn't ready to play SL if kr think he is the answer then they will come unstuck.

rovers throwing big money at other clubs' juniors as they can't develop their own

He needs to be playing more games either at Hull or elsewhere but it's a waste of time him playing in the U19's

Not been fuuny, but how do you know? He looked more than capable in the u23 and at doncaster. Hes not played a sl game yet, so knowbody knows. Not saying your wrong, but you dont know hes not ready

His coaching team know this as he is out of his depth when with the first team.

Great news. Our man of steel! A colossus of a man and hits like a sledgehammer! Love seeing him line up for us every week! An FC great!!
