| Hopefully Keith Lulia will turn out to be another Brett Kearney/Heath L'Estrange signing, not a big name but a quality player. It is getting a bit annoying though with Hood stating we are interested in quality players/marquee names but not pulling them off. He did manage it with Matt Orford and tried with Greg Bird, but using names like Pryce and Moi Moi to try pull the fans in and then not deliver is quite disapointing. Hopefully we see a good quality international player arriving at Odsal in 2012.

Treating players like $hit can come back to haunt clubs.
We don't want a reputation as a club who dumps players as soon as somebody else is available. Obviously we want better players cause we want our club to succeed,, but we signed Briggs up for 2 years.

And you know it's not true how exactly? Oh, that's right, you don't.
What are the details of our offer to him? Seeing as you were party to the negotiations?

| You're the one whos saying it isn't true. I haven't said if it's true or not. So come please I'm waiting for you to tell me why it isn't. But like I said obviously you don't know wether it is or not, so you saying of course it is, is just you hoping that it isn't true. But no I'm no one has ever signed for a club who has offered less money eh!

So lets get this straight then. You put a post up designed to be provocative that you admit you don't know is true or not. Now you are demanding that the person who said he didn't think what you said was true prove to you that the statement you made, that you don't know is true or not, isn't true and acting like this is some sort of decisive point. wtf?
Given you've no proof to back up your original post why on earth should he need to back up his?
For what its worth, what I've heard is that you offered loads of money and he pulled out of a contract with us very much at the last minute. Hence the PR faux pas with Connor and the T&A.

| No one will know for sure only Bradford haven't got much to offer at this moment in time other than money, Hull on the other hand have recommendations from an ex player (Berrigan), a team mate already signed for Hull (heremiah), a great stadium and facilities and probably a greater potential to succeed (at this moment in time), which would probably outweigh money alone.

| Like I said I didn't say if I thought we had offered more money or not, but debaser seems so sure that we haven't offered less money. But has yet to explain why he thinks this. Therefor me saying that he just hopes that it isn't true.
No so hard to understand is it.

What are you on? Why would I care if it's true or not? You have no evidence at all that it is or isn't yet you come on and make a bold statement. I disagree with you. As has been pretty widely reported in the press and internet (I assume you can read?) Hull FC stepped in at the last moment with a "big money offer" and pouched Seymour from under the noses of the Bulls. Read into that what you will. You can think that he came to Hull for the priviledge of playing in the Black and White, but that would be naiivity of the highest order. He went where the money is, like all reasonable players.
Your evidence to the contrary is....?

So what better half backs are available in this climate? There are no available English ones to speak of and the chance of getting one of the big names in Oz now is very slim with their new, higher salary cap coming in. Getting a current NRL half back who is only 26 isn't bad going.
