If Ellis signs I don't think we require Abdull, more of a running half.

Maybe Hudge was telling the truth and we won't be signing anyone front the dullers

Decent signing is Ellis at your level, I'm sure I suggested him as a signing a while back.

Can't sign Abdul surely now as him and Ellis would be fattest halfs in the history of RL.

I think you could easily put together a side to win the league, this side would do that IMO

Cockayne
Lancaster
Salter
Minns
Mantalato
Marsh
Gaskell, Ellis, Finn, Brieley etc
Scruton
Lunt
Tiles
Blair
Donaldson
Lawyer

Clarke
Addy
Jubb
Mariano

That's 3 signings plus the rumoured ones, the key is to be ready for the 8's and save some money for late signings.

Found it, in the know

I vaguely remember Hull fielding the 'tallest halfs in RL history' (according to Stevo iirc), due to injuries - Whiting was one, I think, but can't remember the other. Possibly Westerman?

Anyway, if JE and JA make the pitch seem narrower for the opposition, that has to be a good thing, right?

Ellis is now confirmed by the club (Season Pass holders should have received the email.)

On the website now, with confirmation at the bottom the story that Mantellato, Larroyer, Allgood, French John and Kelly have left the club.

It'll give a bit of balance to all the Rovers rejects in your team I suppose.
