Look at Tyler Dupree, released by Leeds, season at Widnes in the championship, picked up by Salford so he can prove his worth,now named in the England squad. There are quality players out there who won't break the bank, we just need to be better at finding them, it seems our scouting team just type in 'best of kane evans' on youtube and hand a deal out
To be fair a lot of Salfords strength is the ability at bringing players in that whilst not being world class stars have points to prove are willing to work hard and have the right attitude. At Hull it just seems to have been an easy life for too many players living on past history for too long and that attitude and the lack of desire to graft hard has infected the squad.
I'd have said a few seasons ago that the club wouldn't have needed to make wholesale changes to reset the attitudes etc but its gone on too long and too many have been in and around the club with the wrong work ethics that only a major cull/overhaul will change things.
I don't think its a coincidence either that performances on the field and recruitment has been poor since AP streamlined the club off the field.
