I wouldn't want him at the club at all but two years! Really!?

A bit of optimism back when we signed Asiata but signing Hardaker is the dumbest thing the club could do.
Has Myler been testing some of his stash?
We are back to being the laughing stock of R/L
looks like Hull fc will be the Dads army of R/L
if thats the strike centre we need then Mylers off his head
The best signing he has made is Chan and we have him for 1 week
Talk about fishing in one pond.
Think his bag of money has gone to his head.Pity he is not using it
What a wally

no its embarrassing
S/L is laughing at us as a club

Dear oh dear. Ok so we've signed last year's dream team loose forward. Signed a solid Second row. Now signed a centre who's far superior to what we have . Let's see who else we get before turning on the club.

Bingo Hull2524 spot on

Slowest back line in superleague. All enthusiasm gone already for next year

Defensively Zak is still a good player, but with the ball runs sideways a lot and obviously has lost quite a bit of pace. Always gives 100% though.

Ellam
Bingo Hull2524 spot on

no he is not
if you think a backline of Briscoe,Hardaker,Sutcliffe and possibly Martin is progress then we are really in trouble as a club
Where is the pace? where is the strike from a centre
I agree there will be more players coming in as we all know a seven and second row are a priority but if this is the level we are looking at and running with its a joke

Just seen a message fro Mylers father in law

stop wasting my f--king money

I know Pearson has made mistakes but i dont think as the chairman and owner he would have signed off signing Hardaker and shows that as soon as he has his money back he will be on his way out of the club

The way I see it is, myler commented yesterday that we have 2 young centres coming thru so maybe they see hardaker as the experience player to help them progress. A leigh fan has commented how good he is with the younger players

Pure guesswork. We don't even know that the investment has gone ahead yet.

some fans will always see a positive whoever the club signs
Whatever spin you want to put on signing Hardaker its a poor signing when centre is another position where we are so poor.
He is also not the role model we need for our younger players.
Briscoe an ideal role model.Hardaker definitely not.

Just seen Adrian lam and Lachlan lam in the double tree Hilton in town both suited and booted and 10 mins later mr myler walks in with shades on

Having pondered over our activity over the past week, and thinking philosophically, I feel like the path we are taking is pretty clear

Myler in his interview yesterday alluded to setting a platform for the young players in the academy who the club has high hopes for (Armstrong, Wainhouse, Dawson, Westerman to name a few).

The sort of signings we have made compliment this, for all the complaints in this thread, there is no questioning that Holmes, Hardaker, Briscoe and Asiata are all better than what we currently have. And, Asiata aside, I have a feeling won’t be on significant amounts of money either, especially after been offered two year deals rather than the one year extensions they were being offered at Leigh.

This gives the academy talent time to develop, both physically and mentally for SL, and takes the pressure off them, preventing them from being thrown in too early, as we have seen with Moy, and to a degree with Charles IMO.

And in the short term, if we can pair these experienced players with marquee talent (Trueman, Asiata, potentially Whitehead) then we look a hell of a lot better than where we currently are.

I have liked for the most part how Myler has done his business recently. He’s got a plan, and he’s not afraid of ruffling a few feathers along the way. Long way to go, and of course a head coach to appoint, but for now I am confident this club is at least veering back into the right direction.

Where your post falls apart is you are assuming that the younger players mentioned will actually make the grade in S/L.
So my question is if they dont make the grade where do we do from there given that the dads army currently been put together will either not be here or having to use mobility aids.
Much better is to sign players like this on a season loan then use the time to find some quality at a good age like Chan from Wigan
