Pearson has no RL knowledge based advisor, or influence. It seems since Motu left our recruitment is dire. Radford is the person Pearson is listening too ! As for the Academy, it was a mistake to have a joint one, with our nearest and dearest!

As an aside, and apologies if it’s been covered before, as Lomax at Saints, and Watkins at Leeds we’re rumoured to have been awarded contracts from the RFL thus I presume releasing more cap space for these two clubs, and probably other clubs have been granted the same facility, are we not entitled to a similar deal for perhaps Jake or Jamie, as I said apologies if it’s been covered as I must have missed it.

Adam tangata is at Widnes now, played for fax for a couple of years but think this is the 1st time in a full time environment. He could do a good job for somebody only young as well but he was a stand out in the championship like Hill, Walmsley, Bullock. Just needs a chance. Big man as well

We did it in 2016, bringing in a mix of experienced and young NRL players.
Other teams have also managed to bring in 3/4 players to improve their squad, so there is no reason why we cant
in your previous post you never referred to next season. I said this season.
Im sure you are right about the possibilities for next season. However the present incumbents have not shown that they are able to attract top players. The previous team was built by Motu Tony. nothing remotely exciting has happened on the player front since he left.

Maybe we're still paying for that team with back loaded contracts and payments.

This paranoia amongst some Hull FC supporters is embarrassing.
Hasn’t stopped them before. Why would it again ?
