If its the length of the deal thats a problem a 2 year deal with a 3rd year option is the way to go

Still take up a decent ammount of the salary cap, dont think we can afford to wait until later in the season to make a decison on him. Our main 2010 recruitement (Overseas) should be completed by the end of July IMO.


So far next season we have:

Berrigan
Fiztgibbon
Manu
Hame

Signed on, so we potiantially have 3 more spots is this correct.

We only have 2 more spots, the overseas limit is 6 next season. I think we'll sign a scrum half and be looking for another top player, if that doesn't come off I can see us handing another contract 1 year to Cusack or 2 year Moa(depending if he looks the real deal by the end of the year). We also have the option of signing Tony without him been classed as an overseas player but I think we'll leave his contract signing to the end of the year to see how he goes injury wise.

Thanks, couldnt remember the exact number of overses players. I wouldnt offer Cusack a new contract, he has done an Ok job but not worth a quota spot IMO, he also has age and injuries against him.

Cant see Moa getting another contract with the way his Hull career is going.

The RFL need to sort this out, it is so confussing for fans.

I hope Hull dont go down that route, 6 players is enough for each team and should help imrove the quality of imports and help players coming through.

have you read the link??? fien is at home as a hooker,half back etc etc

I don't need to read the link. Having watched him over the years I know he is a hooker who can play 7, a bit like Berro. We need an out and out half back not a makeshift one.
