Where have you got Pritchard from? No talk of him going anywhere from the bulldogs sites? Plus, he's still signed up, a big part of our leadership and on a relatively big contract (550k aud or 300k gbp putting him in the top 2 or 3 players in superleague...)

I was shocked too but apparently it's a done deal. Heard it from a friend who has very close ties to FC. He's not usually wrong too.

Frank Pritchard, Dobson, Sa and Scott Taylor all signed for next season is what I've heard.

Who's Pritchard going to replace in the back row?

Straight swap Pritchard to Hull, Liam Kent to Canterbury to like up with josh Morris and Krisen Inu?

Well Sa is already done, as is Taylor. Dobson is unlikely but possible, however I don't see how we can offer Pritchard an attractive enough package. I guess if Ellis, Pitts and Kent left that might cover his wages at a push, but I'd be amazed really.

id you just say "credible" and "twitter" in the same post??

@rugbyleaguenews and Moley are both usually well informed unlike most on twitter. As I said being in discussions doesn't actually mean anything will go through.

For me that's a very accurate resume of things!

Taylor on a 4 year deal is the rumour . Isn't Pritchard out with a bicep injury for upto 4 months ? Can't see Dobson coming but to be fair I'd put money into a whip round to get him here

I don't know the length of deal with Taylor, but I've been reliably informed that it is happening. I think he needs his head testing tbh, but I guess he wants to play for his boyhood club.

I just dont see the Taylor one, he is still young enough to have a few more years at Wigan, then come to us in say 3 years time.

I doubt to happen, but if radford was to sign those 3 I think it would give him more time, certainly be our best recruitment while I have been a Hull fan.

TBH I be happy with just Dobson.
