As a result, his management has started testing the waters in the Super League.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Hull FC are after a halfback to bolster their squad. Attempts to sign Jock Madden didn&#8217;t come off after he signed a two-year contract with Wests Tigers, but they remain keen to add a playmaker, and Arthur is now a player of interest to them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">An NRL Grand Finalist with Parramatta in 2022, the 22-year-old has made 27 appearances in the competition and been a regular in reserve grade.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">He currently tops the assist charts in the New South Wales Cup, having contributed 20 in 14 appearances and scoring three tries. He has made 64 appearances in the competition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Whether Arthur lands a new deal down under remains to be seen. That will inevitably be a deciding factor in whether he comes to Super League.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">But if he does, the Black and Whites are ready to move.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Black and Whites have another transfer target on their radar.Hull FC are keen on halfback Jake Arthur.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":42848,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":["post-42847","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nrl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-national-rugby-league","tag-nationalrugbyleague","tag-nrl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42847"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42847\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42848"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42847"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42847"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
