Not just me a little confused then?

No, unless the rest of the world has gone back to 2005 except us and Mo & Whelan are in charge again?

I could just about understand the Thomas signing because he'd be worth more to us off the field then on it with the press he'd bring to the club. He would probably take Karl Pryce's place in the squad and with him not even being trusted to hold down a squad place with us anyone would be an improvement.

On the other hand I couldn't and wouldn't back the move for Lauaki. He has shown himself to be a useless lump over these past couple of seasons and we simply don't need him.

Yeah, he was signed a while ago. Poor signing imo. I wonder if it was Wane's doing?

Terry Matterson will be number 2 at North Queensland Cowboys next season.

I'll wait and make judgment after he has played half a season at Wigan. The only reason for this is that quite a lot of Hull fans (who have seen far more of him that I have) seem to think that he is a decent player who needs conditioning and coaching.

With that in mind it may be prudent not to prejudge, particularly when you see some of the comments re Lima early in the year.

I remember Lauaki early on in his Hull career against Saints and he was absolutely devastating. I think we lost the match and I'd say he was the difference. With some good coaching and used in the right way he could be a good player.

I do believe those lovely folk in Leyth are looking for a new coach

Believe me our coach could make any of your players look like that, he would also having you challenging for eighth spot next season if you take Agar as well.'"

I thought we were looking at Lauaki's brother who plays French RU, who's apparently a centre.'"

According to BBC Sport basil is Castleford's new head coach on a 3 year deal.

Announced yesterday pal

You mean we'd send him to Quins?
