Potential for a massive turnover of players year after next. Loads of players OOC.

Wonder if the club are keeping their financial options open?

The only position I think he could do a decent job permanently is 13 but there's a lot of competition there. Lane or Cator or a extra prop.

Good signing for me we need something different at acting half and he certainly brings that as he's good at varying play. As for the two extensions, well, I find that mystifying, money is tight and there are some real priority areas for improvement so what club in that position with the current salary cap limitations carries three hookers and also has one of the best young hookers in the British game knocking on the door.

Dwyer added "the opportunity come on at the 72 minute mark as an impact 13 when the game is already gone was too good an opportunity to turn down"

The bit about Houghton seems to say he has used his option to extend...i.e we dont have a choice. Without reading his contract we will never know!

As for Joe it may be we got him cheap as an unknown and maybe his 2nd year is a cheap wage too.

Seems a deliberate move from Pearson to have so many deals run out in 2023 and I can understand why, its the last year of a reduced SKY deal and who knows what the future may bring?

another reduction in SKY deal and a mooted 2 leagues of 10 format may mean less games so a smaller squad needed...and we'd be on the verge of relegation to SL2 and off to Batley next year if it was happening this season!

TBH Lovodua has only shined because the rest have being very poor. Often thought hes not a very smart player and wouldnt have lost any sleep had he not stayed.

so we pay Houghton to be a a water boy.
You can see it now Houghton destined to be given a job for the boys as he is a Hull boy

Absolute joke Houghton can basically sign his deal himself

Sort of sums up the club last 3 or 4 years giving players deals based on 2016

Least dwyer will prove how limited Houghton is and that will be the end for Houghton

Will be a legend for tackle 52 but others no attack

Dwyer does great signing welcome brad

Yes i was looking at this
Seriously think Pearson is writing off next season thats why he is so quiet on the current situation.
Unless we can add a really powerful second row and possibly another front row to replace Taylor who is becoming an embarrassment this team will struggle next season.
I have no faith in this coach and i dont believe Pearson does either,but he has made the decision to run with him for economy reasons as he knows next seasons passholders and gates will be hugely down on numbers and if as i expect licensing comes in for 2024 then relegation will not be a threat
