All news and gossip please.

HUll KR's shortlist may be headed by Scott Dureau but also includes Canberra five-eighth Terry Campese, Parramatta halfback Luke Kelly and Gold Coast utility Maurice Blair.

No-one who's going to set the Superleague on fire there, then?

 

[Northern_Union]

Terry Campese is a pretty good player. Wouldn't say no to him at the Warriors.

 

[moto748]

You reckon? He's hardly played the last couple of years with injuries, and has always seemed pretty ordinary to me.

Looks like you've got a decent prospect at 6 coming though anyway, that Lolo lad?

 

[Northern_Union]

I don't see what everyone else sees in Lolohea. Personally i'd have kept Godinet as both hooker and half back. Unlike Johnson Godinet gets involved in a game and stays involved in it. As for Campo, i still think he has football left in him and his spat of injuries must surely be at an end so i'd take a punt on him.

 

[moto748]

Godinet has been only fair in an ordinary Superleague side this season. From the little I've seen, Lolo looks to have comfortably more to his game than him. You're welcome to Campo!

 

[Northern_Union]

Godinet like most halves can only do so much behind a poorly performed pack. I'd have him back in a heart beat. I'd also grab Campese but i wouldn't pay overs for him either.

The iSelect Titans have agreed to release backs Albert Kelly and Maurice Blair to take up the opportunity to play together as halves in the English Super League.

Hull KR's plans for the 2015 Super League season have been dealt a blow with the news that Neville Costigan will not be returning to the club next year.

Hull KR's plans for the 2015 Super League season have been dealt a blow with the news that Neville Costigan will not be returning to the club next year.

You know they've signed Ryan Bailey, right? I don't know Costigan is that much of a loss anyway.

 

[S J]

Mitchell Allgood - prop (Parra) ?

 

[moto748]

HKR seem to be assembling quite a squad of second-raters to me. We shall see.

 

[Northern_Union]

Ryan Bailey is more than a second stringer surely?

 

[moto748]

He's not going to give you anywhere near 80 minutes, his best days are behind him.

How old is he Moto??? I thought he was still young.

 

[moto748]

30.

NEVILLE Costigan could yet be handed an NRL lifeline after St George Illawarra confirmed their interest in the second-rower.

The PNG international opted to remain in Australia following the conclusion of Super League XIX, his debut season with the Robins, despite having another year on his contract.

St George’s director of recruitment Peter Mulholland has expressed an interest in signing the 29-year-old, should he become available.

--------------

Not sure this is strictly true - we said he would be interested in a few players - depending on what happened. NC was one of them.

 

[S J]

Hull KR have signed former Canberra Raiders half-back Terry Campese on a one-year deal.

The 30-year-old ex-Australia player left the NRL side at the end of last season after three years as captain.

 

[S J]

Hull KR prop and former Australia international Michael Weyman retires at the age of 30 because of a knee injury.

Good luck to the big fella.
