Haha. You got to be kidding. Hurrell has not played his final match for Leeds even on a marquee contract.

Good

Memory could be playing tricks, but didn't we get the ball back from that?

Semi was probably one of the early “current style” wingers.

Big athletic and an extra forward lacking that bit of classic finesse.

Lovely bloke, never met a more laid back bloke.

Gone on to live a very fulfilling life after rugby following his strong religious beliefs.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better more devastating player combination than Sol and Domic
Not just at Wakey but in sl

Opposition didn’t know what to do
Domic hit the ball with such pace n power
And Sols timing was world class, if he didn’t offload to domic then some else would get it but all the defence had already committed


Shame it was so short and sweet

I’d agree but I think that the current incarnation of said style do have more skill than Semi. He always looked raw to me and stayed that way but none the less he gave us what we needed at the time.

Don’t remember him scoring that many but then we’ve been spoilt in recent years with TJ and BJB.

Just checked, roughly 1 try every 2 games so better than I thought, good lad.

All this talk about the 2004 squad, I've found the Hull fc play off game in youtube. Absolutely incredible pace and endeavour, we can only dream if that right now. I forgot the bumming we got from Kirkpatrick in the first 15, 5-0 penalty count and 11 men on the pitch.

He was very lean and very raw boned.

All knees and elbows and tall.

Awful player to play against.

I just watched it. Thanks for the reminder.

That was a 100 miles an hour from beginning to end.
As you say we were hammered early on by Kirkpatrick, who conveniently forgot about the laying on rule when we were attacking.

Tadulala was outstanding. Made ground for fun, took every high ball and scored a great try TJ would be proud of.
Really surprised me how skillful we were. Not just Solomona but right across the team.

Domic off injured early on but we covered it.
David March was outstanding in defense, passing and running the ball. And goal kicking too without Rooney.

Field at full back deserves a mention. He really surprised me too.

Enjoyable watching.

Got the 2004 playoff game on DVD and another good one is when we bet Cas 42-10 at Wheldon Rd, Semi bobbed over in that one.
