The only potential issue is if a better option has become available at fullback (McDonnell) as opposed to halfback it could mean Horne will continue as a 6 next year. Which imo would not be a good move.

True, but I like the theory that we're able to sign both much more.

They will atm. What is interesting is that people are jumping on Gollum for this breaking news when its actually come from Mike White.

Mike White has a pretty good track record when it comes to breaking stories. He ran with the Steve Bruce to City story well before anyone else as far as I'm aware and was proved right. I reckon despite some denials at present this deal is gonna happen.

If we've got

McKinnon, Sharp, Martin, Turner, Ellis, O'Meley, Moa, Manu, Aspinwall, Burnett out

and

McDonnell, Crookes, Arundel, Watts, Ellis in I'd guess we've still got a few quid left.

And thats not to mention if we get anymore space on the cap signing a few more England squad players.

Well if it does, well done to him, but I can't find anyone from either Camp who think anything but that he is going back to Aus.

I think you're right, Rovers don't want it to come out right now and Hull will respect that.

Jake Webster has just tweeted that Shannon has said he has not signed a contract anywhere....again Rovers won't him announcing anything.

Humberside will have something otherwise they would not have gone with it.

Personally I would have liked to see SM stay. He started slowly but has improved week to week imo. He's not a big name I know, but he's very safe under the high ball, and returns it very well too and knows where the try line is too. If you've signed him hell do a good job for you imo, Hopefully Rovers can pick up a fb that's good enough to make Hull want him too.
