Don't think Holdbrook will come, turned down Warrington who are a bigger draw than us. Don't think Salford will let Rowley go, we will pay a big fee and not sure he would leave.
No doubt there will be some wildcards, probably not mentioned on here.
If Briers, Hornby, Hannay or Dean Young think they are up to a head coaches job then I hope we've been in touch. All highly rated assistants

Let's get it right. The entire Rugby League world is dumbfounded by the bizarre decision to make a current player Director of Rugby.
It's now clear that the 'investor' is not Andrew Thirkill who has no intention of giving up his position as President of Leeds Rhinos. No it is his daughter Stephanie who is the investor. Clearly she is very much in love with Richie Myler and saw an opportunity to provide something after rugby for her partner.
But where is the 'investment' going? To Hull FC or to Adam Pearson?

Seems like it's getting you bin dippers all worked up, I don't know why you even care?

A bit sexist and patronising. She's a successful businesswoman in her own right.

Really liking what Myler says about the need for an identity for the club and reconnecting all areas. There's obviously a disconnect between the club and the fan base at the moment but it sounds like various areas of the club might be feeling disconnected from each other too.
Sounds like we will definitely be making signings this year given that he says the youngsters will be too exposed otherwise. Also sounds like the head coach is employed elsewhere in some capacity and Grix will be in the role until the end of the season. I'm fine with all that. Makes sense that they don't want to rush the youngsters and it sounds like they plan to employ the head coach soon so they can at least be involved in recruitment now.
