Why are they allowed to sign a full national side

stop posting when you've come in for the pub.

whilst i do agree i can understand why we've signed him, we need something different at prop and we dont, as a city, produce impact props.

my only hope is that he doesn't stop maloneys development.

We had Wheeldon, who imo didn't prove that he was going to be good enough for us last year despite promise he showed for us (I remember I wanted him to stay before last season kicked off). I'm sure we had a few of our reserve players training with us this pre-season also, and I know for sure one of them was a prop. So it's not like we haven't give any Hull lads a chance. Plus, we have given a chance to Dominic Maloney who was at Dewsbury last season

none of the hull team proved they where good enough though

Well, maybe not all but I agree most weren't. I wanted a proper overhaul myself. But whether they were more or not, Wheeldon wasn't good enough last season, and he went backwards with his progress and I don't think many were bothered he went by the end. Point is we gave him his chance and he hasn't taken it

We needed an impact prop and if signing an overseas player to help our English players have a succesful season is whats needed then thats whats needed.

Are we going to get to the stage were everybody slags every overseas signing off ? Hull are one of a few clubs that have had UK talent coming through the ranks so I think we can be excused, aslong as we are promoting 4/5 players a year to full time which we are doing then we are doing our bit for the game. Its other clubs that need to buck the ideas up or will struggle when the franchising tightens up the rules in 3 years time...

Exactly. We have Yeaman, R.Horne, Radford, Washbrook, G.Horne, King, Houghton, Briscoe, Hall, Burnett, Lee and Hodgson all from Hull (with only one of those not playing an SL game so far). We also gave chances to Raynor, Dowes, Whiting and now Maloney. We've also given 2nd chances to Tickle, Thackray and now Thorman and Calderwood. Also many academy players have been training with the first team squad.
So I have no idea how fans of clubs who are crap at this sort of thing have the nerve to slag us off for it
Leeds are the only club better than us for giving British talent a go (I think Saints are catching up fast but wouldnt say they are better yet)

suprise suprise because he signs for us he is rubish like briscoe and cooke then? me thinks not just sour grapes because the rats are leaving the sinking ss hull fc face it second best team in hull 11th worst in super duper league

go back to posting drunk.

What the bloody hell are you on about? Are you seriously about 9 years old? Because that would be the only excuse you have for been as intelligent as a Curly Wurly

Surprisingly, he actually talks more sense when drunk!

I haven't seen Sam Moa play, or I can't recall it. But from what I've heard he is a solid, tough prop forward who should get FC's forwards going well. Time well tell whether that is the case or not.

Its not often I've been left in a state of utter confusion and/or lost for words on RLFANS.

But after reading that I have just 3 words;

What the f*ck?

Thats 4 words and an abbreviation
