not sure about the money otherwise Myler would not be in the job but i doubt its substantial given Pearsons loans have to be repaid before he leaves the club.
My concern with this club now is lack of ambition with a rookie promoted to the important DOR position because of his family connections
The club has not been pro active enough in the recruitment market and what has been brought in Asiata apart is lazy recruitment.and just adding fillers rather than quality players for the postitions we need.
This idea that in two /three years we will be fielding a competitive team full of home grown young players as regulars is a pipe dream and reminds me when the idea was to field a team of Hull born players.
The club has dug itself into such a deep hole and alienated a lot of its fan base so without a real strategy that doesnt rely on a large bunch of younger players coming good i can see next season also been written off after the first few games.
Personally think they have to go poop or bust.
Use the quota of Tuimavave to give us three quota spots and get the running half and quality centre we need.
We also could do with another big mobile forward whether used in the front row or second row.
If the signings are deemed to be exciting and quality that does two things
1) helps the club sell passes because if the club loses 2/3 thousand pass holders thats an aweful lot of money to lose
2) Means we can feed into a competitive team with some quality players around a young player occassionaly as it should be done
Will it happen?i dont think so as we seem to be now relying on Cartwright to come good and save the clubs skin by identifying and bringing the required players with him.
You can imagine Myler ringing a player or agent in Australia
Hi this is Ritchie Myler from Hull FC Who?
Better to let Gaz Ellis ring first
Hi its Gaz Ellis from Hull FC Hi Gaz hows it going mate
