If we sign Thompson would seem very unlikely we sign Glenn as well, especially having already signed Jones and Savelio.

Salary cap comes to mind!

That's what I think/hope.

Must be earmarked for the Ellis “leader” role. Huge shoes to fill but hopefully he’ll put his own stamp on the team.

Would be a real statement of intent. Along with already signing the best English forward available.

And the retention of Sneyd. Not too many halfbacks of his ability and experience on the market so excellent business to retain him.

Paea
Mini
Manu
Westerman
Logan
Hadley
Green
Ellis
Washy..... will all probably leave

Cap goes up 100k again this yr
Plus I'd not be surprised to see Fash Thompson n ngouzu leave despite contracted..loans out at least

Cap really isn't an issue

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Sat Jun 01, 2019 7:41 pm  

Thompson and Jones are a quality second row pairing for you, both got linked to us at one point, id of been happy with either, getting both is cracking business for Hull imo.

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Sat Jun 01, 2019 7:54 pm  

Im going on Pearsons previous comment about bringing 5 over from Oz, was it 5?

As airlie said we’l have plenty of cap with the players released/leaving

Looking forward to seeing who else is joining, i think we’l go for it next season
