We can and do attract big name players.
Were any of those apart from maybe Swain "Speculated" in the press before signing?

Of all the truly established, good players coming over here from the NRL Hull have held thier own in that dept and to say nobody wanted any of the aforementioned players maybe isn't the case. All clubs have signed 2nd rate Aussies or ones supposedly 'over the hill', Hull have had one or two dud ones but generally we have done ok.........add Jason Smith and Colin Best to the list of good players the club have attracted.
