Realistically its season over for both us and Hull - this could lead to an entertaining game with the shackles off, or it could lead to a turgid affair.

I'm betting the usual

Erm, we needed some pace and a fullback as well, didn’t realise we were only allowed to sign one player.

Don't get me wrong, I agree we need some pace in the backs.
But we now have 3 full backs and no half backs.
Looking forward to the rest of the transfer activity.

I always thought Hooley was signed due to his pace and would automatically take Myler`s position when he retired or got injured.
Whilst Miller is a good signing and an upgrade we are desperate for a couple of halfbacks and a prop.

Myler is 2nd gear for pace, Hooley is 3rd gear at best.

The club know that and have said they still have a few top level signings to make

I thought it might be a tough ask even if he was.

Think that will mean martin at centre and Gannon or Smith at 6.

Can't see Gannon and sinfield being paired in the halves, that'd be the most inexperienced halves combination in SL history I think! Roberts centre, Martin and sinfield in the halves.
