The thing is Zod we have signed 3 players that will massivley improve our team for next year, (4 if you include Hame). While you have signed a current player, so not getting stronger for next season.
Be interesting to see who you sign for next season, as these upgrades with a have a massive impact on your slaray cap.
As for Dobson he is an excellent player who Rovers have done very well in securing for the next 3 years.
We shall see. Lets hope Fitzgibbon and Long aren't just here to top up their pensions, and Tansey was average at best for leeds, so I guess you'll be hoping his game improves despite having lesser players around him.
Give me hanging on to young, hungry players like Dobson, Welham & Fox any day.

and what a wonderful reject he is
and anyone you sign is going to improve your squad lets be honest.....
The players we release will cut the Salary cap down also, if rumours are true Fitzy may be leaving and hes on quite alot, and Mills wont be on a small amount. so if we release say 5/6 players, extend the contracts of our best players and maybe sign 1 or 2 quality players theres nothing else we need surely?
Quote:Dobson added: “I’m really settled at this club and we have a really good set of players here that are capable of winning silverware."
“Everyone at the club along with all the supporters make you feel so welcome, it was an obvious decision for me to make and there’s no reason to go anywhere else, I love my footy and I am really enjoying playing here.”

Burrow and McGuire both signed 5 year deals at Leeds. Berrigan came to us on a 4 year deal (tho I believe the 4th year is optional) so it does happen.
Good signing for Rovers anyway and enables you to continue to build the team around him.

I have no doubt there are not here to top up there pensions they are professionals, has Fozzard or Gene been topping up their pensions at Rovers?
Murrell was less than average at Leeds, he could get a game. He seems to be doing Ok doesnt he?
Also we have signed up young players like Houghton, Burnett and Briscoe thi season.

This isn't really a hard task, Hull FC don't even have to sign players to improve next season, they can improve just by getting rid of some

I have to agree, we need to get rid of some deadwood, but if they get rid of players there have replace them, and we have signed 3 quality players and 1 who is young and has a lot of potential.
I dont think our recruitment is finished yet either.

Agar must have some greatpersonality when the cameras are turned off because all of your signings are saying how important he was in convincing them to sign. Maybe Agar is the only thing Hull FC have going for them.......................or maybe not
