I liked Mantellato when he was here.Consistently solid winger and kicking was good although after his last injury I seem to remember he missed a few ones he wouldn't have in the past? Watching this year's superleague it seems good goal kickers are at a premium.Williams at Wigan is costing them a lot of points and after Richards it seems very noticeable. Same with Watkins at Leeds.We have Ellis if he stays? Shaw had a reputation as a good kicker I think? Wins are going to be hard to come by next year and those 2 pointers need slotting

It's back the fake rovers fan

Hudge made it clear on Sportstalk that we are hoping to run a reserve grade team, so I would imagine all but 1 or 2 will be staying put.

How dare yow forty yeers man abd boy !

You LIE like you spell very bad so of you go again to the hole you have just come out of

What are your views on the signings of Mose Masoe and Danny McGuire?

Measure it now, this is a test.

Simple realy masoe good for ten minutes , mcguire needs top class players around him to be effective .Does this pass your stupid test , i come on here for a bit of banter and i am rebuffed . do you not have a sense of humour in east Hull or is that you are that green with envy of the Mighty FC 2 X Wembley challenge Cup Winners and still fighting for old Trafford .Lighten up .RRTR

No Rovers supporter would EVER say the mighty?????? FC...sh**y FC . without doubt.

I think your mask as a rovers fan has slipped somewhat Billy. You can write what rubbish you like as its a free forum, but pretending to be one of us with your 'humour' being based on factual and gramatical errors is just a bit tiresome and not particularly funny.

Mask slipped - double tick

Bowing out -- Hopefully

do you think 10 minute mickey will be effective for you next year and will the flegging frog command a regular spot,if you want to lighten things for a bit of sport you could try gassing yourself

whats happening with jamie ellis?

on loan from the giants, not sure giants will be that keen to have him back.

Looks like he will be free to find another club. He played well when he had a settled partner but struggled when asked to be the lead HB. He will always get a warm welcome from me at CP as he was a major part of the team which got us promoted.

He played well for a lot of the season, but at times was a little inconsistant and on some other occasions did not seem motivated. This may not all be down to Ellis, as HBs rely on good players around them. That stated, he is not a player to steer the team around which should be a prerquisite for a number 7.

On that basis, I have doubts about him at SL level. I personally wouldn't give him a contract but Tim Sheens might see something he can work with.

I woukd like to see Abdul stay, he and Lunt controlled the game on Saturday. McGuire will be great next season but may only play half the games. Atkin will have his big SL chance as well. ZDC is a good utility player but not a HB, neither is Addy. Marsh is just plain rubbish. This friday will make or break his future at the club I reckon. On that basis, we need at least 1 other dedicated HB for 2018.

Ooooo you are a one

This is just my opinion and I doubt it will happen, I would get rid of

Horne
Cockayne ( I know he has already signed for York)
Quinlan
Jake Butler Fleming
Moran
Mitch Clark
Bobby Blair (providing we could find a far better oversees forward)

So that's 7 out for me, so if we could sign 5-6 better upgrades on the likes of Horne i think we could have a very strong Super League squad.

You reckon you could go back in for Sio, playing reserve grade

He only missed 3 games all season, through injury.

Being an utter raasclart and ultimate bumbaclaart that everyone from both sides of The Chocolate River's Tributary laughs and points at irrespective of which side they support but all of us being embarrassed to have to breath the same air as you...

Tick.

Oh right sorry was listening to someone last night and believed it

He played every game and in r17 he got injured against West's, missed the next 3 then returned for the last 4.

Mickey Paea's playing reserve grade, if he got mixed up?

Blair wont be going anywhere. I still think ZDC will be out, just can't see where we fit him into the starting 17 and for a quota player that is a must.

I agree... ZDC has been good, but he becomes a luxury as a back up hooker and if lunt and Lawler are fit he may find opportunities at a premium.

Saw him at a Wyong game a few weeks ago - cooking the barbeque for the club members.
He looks fit.
