Because of Radford's reluctance to play any different to battering it through the middle I feel that we really need to add some serious size to the pack. I personally don't think are backs are bad at all, they have been given no favours from our forwards and it's annoying that we have no structure, depth and set moves in attack to hit the outside.
I would love a player like Fifita to come in, as well as someone like Murdoch-Masila, however this seems too unrealistic. It is also blindingly obvious that we need a new face in the coaching team to set up attacking plays. My dream scenario would be;
Out: Paea - personally don't think he makes much impact Talanoa - free up a large amount of cap space (I assume). Miloudi was playing well for us when he slotted in, I think he could do a job on the wing Manu - I think he's been a brilliant player for us however he will be on a big salary and we could use that up for a big impact player Green - too often injured Abdul - wants to leave so let him Mini - again brilliant servant for us however doesn't offer what he used to
In: Fifita Murdoch-Masila Jones Another prop Attacking coach
It may seem a bit extreme with all the departures I've suggested however Pearson has said he's making big changes and they would free up a lot of cap space. What would your ideal action be regarding in's and out's?
It was never going to happen . Pearson admits .
Adam Pearson made a strong statement last September when he slammed his Hull FC players following their 80-10 defeat at Warrington Wolves. He promised ‘three or four proper signings’ after the club decided to change their policy of not recruiting for 2019. The first-team arrivals included Levy Nzoungou, Danny Langtree and Matty Dawson-Jones, while Jordan Thompson returned after a year away. But Pearson also said the club would move on under-performing players, something which has not come to fruition. The Hull owner has now conceded in an interview with The Yorkshire Post that it was never truly possible.

From current rumours Cas gave lost Gale for the year. Seems that if he doesn't play a competitive game then he won't count on the cap, so that would free some money for them to sign Talanoa if they really do want him. Of course they may look to sign another half or be happy to just thrown in a youngster.
