I read that Hampshire is out until April sometime….

Will Dagger from KR?

Dagger is no better than Gaskill and has already turned his back on Wakey a few moons back.

I’m not sure who’s available though:

Shaul
Hampshire (probably still injured)
Escare

Hampshire signed for Wigan a few weeks back.

Shaul seems the obvious choice, can't see him playing much at Hull. Will Pryce might struggle for game time now Connor is fit and he's leaving at the end of the season.

If we go with what we've got then Gaskell to full back and either Langi or Smith at 6 is unfortunately our best option.

Shaul will probably only get game time for Hull if Hoy is injured. But even then he's got stuff competition from Connor Wynne and Davy Litten who is very highly though of. Yes it's his testimonial season, and by all accounts he had a really good pre season, but I think if you want him you could probably get him, even if it's just for a few weeks.

Ashton Goulding best suggestion so far and best out and out fullback of all those suggested. Only gets bit part wing opportunities at Huddersfield. Long shot , but would be a good addition.

Think he also does some coaching with the juniors there. No way will he be released. I think Shaul is the only possible option but the testimonial is a fly in the ointment and he is still listed as injured here https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/super-league-treatment-room-leeds-26338891?utm_source=leeds_live_newsletter&utm_campaign=rugby_league_lve_newsletter&utm_medium=email

Another thing that won’t help us, other than we apparently don’t have any money left in budget for further recruitment, is that Catalans very public lambasting of the pitch won’t have helped the desire of other coaches to send their players here short term due to the perceived enhanced risk of injury. I reckon Gaskell probably will be our fullback for the next few weeks.

Most importantly he has guts and will not pretend to try and tackle.
