I'm happy with this signing. Tall, athletic utility with good skills; I think he'll go well.

Welcome to Hull Carlos.

Could be the end for Yeamen then ? if we've more backs coming in .

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 11:48 am  

Absolutely willing to give him a chance, but it's an odd signing when we have an outstanding academy producing decent players who barely get a chance.

As it stands

Shaul
Lancaster
Tuimavava
Talanoa
Naughton

Logan as back up

Need at least two more backs IMO.

There's some pace in these really. Think we just need a decen strike centre with good hands.

But who from the 19s are ready to play every week?

Pritchard & Taylor alone are massive signings, the big name players are not coming over as much as they used to, the only time players come over is twighlight of their careers or bad lad & no NRL side will touch them.

I totally agree with you about Pritchard and Taylor,but reading the second part of your post about NRL players,why do you think AP would come out with the statement he has about 3 top class players.

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 12:10 pm  

I haven't heard his interview but I believe they are fetching in a very decent centre, they've a few on the radar which will be a massive improvement, but he says things to boost his clubs pass sales, every chairman does, I was just meaning the likes of inglis & co will never grace our competition unless like I posted earlier.

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 12:17 pm  

Do you reckon we will make two more signings? A centre and a winger? I reckon it will be one more I listened to the AP interviewee and I got the impression it was two new ones plus Pitchard.

If we make two more there is no need to keep Michaels and Yeaman.

Our forwards could do with another prop. Pritchard & mini are ultimate professionals, I'm happy we are signing these type of players as they are as good off the pitch as on it.
