There’s now way you’d do what’s potentially the biggest deal of the clubs history and what reportedly could be the biggest contract in the competition and leave it all up in the air having to move someone else on. The club obviously felt they had the cap space and the money available to do the deal, they offered it and it just wasn’t for player, whatever the situation is with Trueman is it’s not the reason why Lam didn’t happen.

Think Trueman is gone if Wakey can afford him. Also think Hull would have had a good idea a couple of weeks ago that Lam wasn't going to accept, I'll be disappointed if we haven't got someone else lined up, good chamce it's Sullivan IMO, too much noise around him.

Like Asiata, if he did come, it would only be for the money and as we've seen before that can end up being a bad deal for the club unless they can really sell the vision to him once he's arrived. I still don't think it will happen. Regardless of the money, it's a big risk for him if he has any NRL ambitions as there's no guarantee the club will turn things around to any great extent.

Unfortunately money is the only way we can attract those type of players at moment.
If he signs a long term deal in the kind of money rumoured, he will stay as no NRL club would match that type of cash for a player who clubs probably see as a back up.
Not sure why but NRL clubs don't seem to fancy Lam, maybe it is his salary.
