Hull KR Target Ken Sio

Hull KR target Parramatta Eels star Ken SioParramatta Eels flyer Ken Sio is a target for Hull. Hull KR coach Chris Chester admits Ken Sio is one of the players the Robins hope to sign from Australia.Rovers chief executive Mike Smith has just returned from Down Under with two players signed up for the 2015 season. Chester has made no secret of the fact he wants to add pace to the back line and Sio certainly fits the bill.The 23-year-old has been at Parramatta Eels for the last three seasons, scoring tries on a regular basis.This season, with the Eels struggling fourth from bottom of the NRL table, Sio has still managed 13 tries in the 14 games he has played. Chester is a big admirer of Sio and hopes an announcement can be made in the very near future."Ken is a very good player," Chester told the Mail."We have been talking to quite a few players in the NRL."Ken is one of them and hopefully we'll have some news in the not too distant future on certain individuals."It was a successful trip to Australia."We had a long list of players and we narrowed that down to four or five."We are looking for outside backs because we are lacking speed on the outside edge."If we can get a couple of outside backs then I'll be happy."Read more: http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-KR-target-Parramatta-Eels-star-Ken-Sio/story-21753237-detail/story.html#ixzz38NGbhHlERead more at http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-KR-target-Parramatta-Eels-star-Ken-Sio/story-21753237-detail/story.html#4saHJjfRckGBHtDi.99

"Blore is average. We are top heavy for forwards, very light on in the backs, now you want to get rid of two backs for an average forward. I'm glad Mon is part of the recruitment team, and not you."

Ridiculous that we're losing Sio, I can't fathom why he even started the year at wenty. It's that and decisions like Edwards at hooker, tanginoa in NYC and Pauli starting in first grade that still creates some massive doubts about Arthur's ability to manage talent.

  Why was Kelepi in the NYC a bad thing? He wasn't getting much first grade game time and we wanted him to learn to play in the middle. Ever since Kelepi's been dropped he's had two injuries that have hampered his season.

  He got a decent fun in the nrl team last year, I found him to be better performer than Pauli. I know very subjective, and on the injury - he went for a good stretch of games demolishing NYC teams with no apparent injury. One can debate that any of our sub 21 year olds would have been better for the run in the 20s. I just thought that tanginoa was the wrong choice.

Kenny is pretty Parramatta through and through. He's be on significantly less staying with us, but it won't surprise me if he sticks with the boys. With the prospects we have coming through on the wing, we can't afford to overpay, but I think this is a very tight group that is going to want to stick together as much as possible.

You are not privy to all information Appleseed.

He wouldn't have any issues if we signed Michael Morgan to play on the wing outside Ryan Morgan. The winger would never receive the ball from his inside man....
