You could do with him, hell you could do with almost anybody right now.

We'll see. We all said that about Warrington 5 years ago when they started throwing money around. Adam Pearson has promised to continue to invest until we are at the top. Now players know we are serious, there will be more to follow. A lot of clubs are struggling financially all we will do is throw money at them for their best youngsters

I find it strange that everyone seems to talk about Hull as if they've never signed a marquee player before and the previous owners never should this 'intent'. Off the top of my head in previous seasons Hull have signed Swain, Fitzgibbon, O'Meley, Sing, Blacklock, Berrigan and Crocker (although I know he never turned up) and they also shelled out 6 figures for Westerman.

Personally I'm not too bothered about missing out on Ellis and I wish him all the best but I bet if he was an Aussie people would view this signing rather differently.

I see your coach has done an amazing job cutting down Lauaki's habit for giving away oceans of penalties

we'll tell you in 4 years time if Ellis was a good signing or not.

hopefully this signing will make other players want to come to Hull

Yeah, there would be more people praising Hull for signing one of the best (if not best) player in the world at his position.
