If he's a SL player of the quality we need he shouldn't want to play in Championship.

Should Ky Rodwell not want to play in the Championship either?

Well that's a good example as hes clearly SL levelbut he isn't currently contracted to a team in SL.
He may have turned out to be good but he wasn't certain of playing NRL this year. This is his route into SL.

I'm not saying it's a bad idea but I'd prefer him to be good enough that he's wanted in SL. Like TJ and MM.

Apparently on here we are not good enough for SL our halves are crap. But Carter signed lino unconditionally on a 3 year 130k a year deal so thats a handicap to deal with. Half backs are not the easiest position to recruit in, plus we potentially have 7-8 new players coming in next year so where is the logic its a project not a fast fix.

I honestly couldn’t see Lino been anywhere near 130k and I’m not inclined to believe that. If he is then he’s certainly done well and good for him.

I guess you see what you want to see.

What strange logic ! We are the club he has chosen to join, Hull are a toxic basket case at the moment. Why would he want to kick his eels over there on a temporary basis in a no win situation. Surely he would want to come here and bed himself in so he can hit the ground running next season.
