Do not wait too long - Tigertit has been the person repsonsible for stalking SuperDeacs over many years & I blame HIM for Deacon leaving to join Wigan.

Hang your head in shame Tigs

It would be churlish & disrespectful of me to turn this thread into an argument of Deacon's talents. I'm quite happy to do that elsewhere. He has been a great club man & professional.

Deacs' has been a legend when he first hit the scene you knew he was something special and the poor lad has had more smacks than most scrum halfs and he didn't have the best of seasons but at least he's left on a little high with a great performance at Hull and the kick at Valley Parade to win it against Wigan but how many times has he won us a game with his kicking. He deserves a fantastic reception when he returns and nobody booing. You may be at Wigan but you'll always be a Bull, true legend!

Good luck in your future career Deacs, a true legend in our team.

What an absolutely pathetic response

You have no case in regards to Deacon's talents - look at the record books ffs

Great club man & professional - well thanks for stating the obvious but compare HIM to YOU & its a pity that you cannot be classed as a great clubman. Try & get to a game sometimes matey.

You are spoiling the thread. Well done.

Thanks for everything Deacs. A true Bulls legend, good luck at Wigan.

For that, I'll gladly design you a new avatar, Sir!

Who do you want to kill off next?

Hull FC Fan here - not a world beater Paul Deacon but 80 mins on the field in Super League he was a credit to your team and any Club in Super League would have had him as a goal kicker - one of the best ever - I dont know how many points he scored for you lot but I would guess it was a fair few. Hope he keeps fit at Wigan

No appologies for transferering this from a much prior thread to this one that is more appropriate
A lot will now be said about Deac's career with the Bulls but my over-riding memory was the fans confidence we had in his kicking. It surely put the frighteners on opposition and gave great confidence to his team mates.
Maybe someone could add to previuos years stats for Deacs. Here is what I know

2003 158 attempts 80% success
2004 154 attempts 79% success
2005 188 attempts 75% success
2006 132 attempts 76% success
2007 118 attempts 83% success
2008 71 attempts 85% success
2009 112 attempts 80% success

7 year average of 80%...Awesome!
Anyone recall, as I do, games where his kicking won us the game?

Thanks for your efforts Deacs, i've got to say he's up thier with some of the great Northern/Bulls players.

How ironic it is for one of the games greats going off to while out his senior playing years at Wigan, they used to come our way!



All the best Deacs, but not against us!

All the best Deacs!

Great servant to the club, I'm sure he'll get a good reception back at Odsal in March...
