Great news ref Talanoa - thats four of the brothers signed up for next season - just need Manu to do the same and join them now

I like talanoas but he's missed a lot of games through injury in the last couple of years for a winger

He has, but I'd doubt he would be on a great salary so think he offers good value for money, still played 21 games last year and has played 16 games so far this year, we also now have some good back up in the squad to cover him.

I'm glad to see he's staying. There doesn't seem to be many quality wingers OOC, and with his niggly injuries & age, a 1-year deal is right I think.

Just the 2nd row to sort out now.

Good news about Talanoa. He was on great form earlier in the year so fingers crossed he can recover that form when he comes back. He's still 3rd on the try scoring chart.

One thing I’d love Hull to be able to do is snatch the local talent away from the top clubs, someone like Ben Currie from Wire. Easy said than done and not very often but it does happen.

Exactly my point, the other big clubs do manage to do it every now and then but something we have never being able to do.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see no new faces for 2019.
