Who is to say that an Aussie club wouldn't pay a fee? It might be unusual but it wouldn't be impossible to imagine. Plus, if you were Chase, where would you rather play? I think he'd be happy to go down under, not too sure about his partner / little un.

I'd love to know who the other two halfback targets are. I'm assuming they're British or at least British based?

1. Chase will not go back to Oz unless deported as his GF won't go.

2. There's no way any NRL club would pay the amount we'd probably be willing to pay.

How do you guys rate Reece Lyne?
Just a quick query as, according to this mornings League Express, he has signed for us on a 3 year deal!

Very poor. Deceptively slow, awful defensively and poor decision maker. I had massive hopes for him but I've seen nothing to suggest he'll ever be even an average SL player.

Heard similar stories to Wilf about Cas and their games around Chase. I don't understand them really as the only other options are an NRL club who won't pay a fee and them keeping him which isn't something Chase wants.

or indeed can afford, the way Millward talks in todays Rugby Players about how good a player he would be in the Hull team smacks of him wanting the money to spend, trouble seems to be that Pearson won't put up with being fleeced and paying more than he feels a player is worth or indeed what he was quoted in the first place. They say they have a good fall back situation if it falls through we'll see! You can see Pearsons point its his money I guess!

the other week I posted about Cas playing silly buggers and that Hull were looking at another young halfback whom I'm lead to believe is playing in the NRL feeder league (whatever its called.)

I don't think we have one. I think it could be a case of signing a player in another position and shuffling. Not ideal. Only a rumour.

Wasnt there a rumour about a Gold Coast half back coming over at the start of the year?

He'd need a eu passport.

If Cas cut their noses to spite their faces then it's their loss. As a side in financial straits, they can't afford to knock back cash. What were Milward's comments Hfrom last week ?
