Looks as though Hull FC has got John Cartwright as new head coach on 3yr deal from 2025.He is assistant to your old coach Foe this season state of origin.

Totally understand that and tbh,he hasn’t got much of a benchmark as we have been gash for about the last 5 seasons tbh.We now have got additional investment coming in,4 players already for next season and quota spots available so see if he can unearth a gem of a 7 and then let Charles take over.

His credentials are certainly good. I think the problem goes beyond the quality of players Hull have on their books though.

Why are all these players bailing out at Leigh?

Feel for them a little bit - I doubt theres any one thing causing it. Money persuaded Asiata to leave and the NRL will always be a huge draw over a mid table Super League club. Hardaker and Holmes are very replaceable.

One thing Adrian Lam is very good at is scouting hidden talent in Australia - despite the horror of 2021 we definitely owe him a big thank you for that.

Leigh a victim of their own success unfortunately and as MadDogg points out, a victim of Lams ability to scout a player from the NRL, who isn't quite getting the chances they deserve. We have plenty to thank him for on that score ourselves. You only need to look at this David Armstrong ripping it up for Newcastle in recent weeks. He was close to signing for Leigh and that again only highlights the knowledge Lam has of the NRL and the competitions feeding in to that. I've said about Saints need to replace Dodd that they should just go after Lams targets for Leigh and sign a 1 or 6 and move Welsby or Lomax as needed (Welsby to 6 if they sign a full back and Lomax to 7 if they sign a stand off).

Bateman just seems to have lost something since his Canberra exit. He couldn't get going for us and in the bits I've seen of him at Wests, he doesn't look the player we had first time around or the one at Canberra. In some ways he just seems to have grown up and lost a bit of that niggle he had and that competitive edge. He isn't the biggest, so I think those traits really pushed him past the levels his physical size should've allowed. I doubt there would be a shortage of offers over here but I doubt we'd be in for him.
