Arthur Clues and also Vic Hey. I also hope Ali is fully fit for the final. He's a massive, big-game player.

As a geriatric supporter I would suggest that along with Arthur Clues, Ali has been our best overseas signing. However, who will replace him?
Hauraki may think he is a ball playing game breaker but he is nowhere near at the moment, possibly in a couple of years time.
How Kirke and Hauraki are selected before Ali is beyond my understanding. We needed his skill at Doncaster, and it showed, and I sincerely hope he plays at Wembley.
What is the betting he comes back next year to prove Brian Mc and Gary H wrong to let him go
Thanks for all the memories Ali, good luck for the future

How do we go about nominating Ali for inclusion in the Southstander Hall of Fame?

Quote: Andy Gilder "Given that I seem to remember a "leaving party" being put together for Matt Adamson and Dave Furner (two players who arguably contributed less for a shorter period to the success of the club), is there merit in putting together something similar for Ali? A chance for the fans to show their appreciation and wish the big fella well?

P.S. That's not me volunteering to organise it by the way...'"


I'm on it!

Anyone want to suggest any dates?

Bring 'em on, We can beat them. John [url=http://english-95007361876.spampoison.com:px8d59fn]Fight Spam! Click Here![/url:px8d59fn] [url=http://english-95007361876.spampoison.com:px8d59fn][img:px8d59fn]http://pics3.inxhost.com/images/sticker.gif[/img:px8d59fn][/url:px8d59fn]:10108.jpg



Can't dispute most of what has been said here, Ali has been the best of the modern imports but not at his best over the past couple of years.
As much as I like Kirke I would have to take a fit Ali as second row cum prop and despite the injuries and declining fitness he can still produce the magic and his presence on the pitch not only lifts the crowd but also seems to lift the team.
As somebody else has said, we weren't going to go to that match until we found out it was his debut - glad we did.
Best memory has to be the 5 tries at Wakefield after coming on as sub - something the superleague records page didn't show for ages (think they got fed-up of me pestering them).

Thanks Ali & good luck wherever you end up.

[b:1zy5cey6]"...To those people that wrote this team off... to all those that criticised this team... tonight's for you" [/b:1zy5cey6] [i:1zy5cey6]Sir Kevin Sinfield[/i:1zy5cey6]:27794.gif



Ali has been a fantastic servant to our club since his debut back in 2004

When Ali was fully fit, he was almost impossible to defend against,I will always remember Ali for playing the game how it should be played, in that he could always do the "off the cuff" style of footie rather than being just another stereotypical overseas back rower that can do the stats proud.

Ali also always played the game with a smile on his face,

Respect eusa_clap.gif
