Kearney brings utility at least

J.P. is saying that the club is using Tim's vast contact and knowledge in the NRL to recruit more players, so maybe we haven't completed the signing of our on field leader yet.
Could it be we have an experienced prop on the way ?, could it be a classy fullback ? or maybe a game changing loose man to dictate the game tempo ?
Who do we need ?

I seem to remeber TS said he wud be using the Hull acadumty for players , soon back tracked on that . can,t wait to see a load ofv over the hiill ozzies Or have Hull FC blocked him usin them as it is a super leeguae accadummy. RRTR.

Rumours have it Hala, Quinlan & Brett Kearney have signed. I'd take two out of the three.

Quinlan & Hala I can understand. Don't get Kearney though.

It must take you ages to type this comedy gold.

Surely you have something better to do.....or maybe not.

Any way. The consensus is Lunt. I'd agree couldn't understand why he wasn't last year.

How sure are the Hala and Quinlan rumours. Quinlan we really need. Our other full back options are poor. If Hala is fit enough he looks the ideal impact prop.

Yes thinking about it I don't understand signing Kearney either pretty sure him and Quinlan can play full back and stand off

I can understand Kearney but not Quinlan!

Rovers squad lacks experience and Kearney brings this in abundance.

If it is true and both have signed it provides pressure on Abduller and Ellis to deliver.

I vaguely remember Kearney at Bradford seem to remember him playing full back predominately? I just think Quinlan has more of an X factor remember him getting a hat trick for stains on his debut if I remember rightly?

Re: 2017 Team Captain : Sat Dec 10, 2016 12:18 pm  

Kearney's a bundle of energy, but not dissimilar to Cockayne imo. Quinlan's a smart footballer who'll take pressure off the halves.
Hala's a real impact player, just never done big minutes.

What I have seen of hala he looks a monster! Which is all well providing he stays fit
