| Quote: RebelRebel "Many people thought he was passed it before we signed him. Tonight has done nothing to disprove that. You'd have thought that playing in Hull with the crowd on his back, he'd be really up for it and trying his best to put one over on them. Sadly for us, and for him, I don't think there's owt left in him to do that.
One moment that said it all for me was, with about 5 mins to go, he picked up a loose ball deep in our own half. He had loads of space in front of him, but rather than run into it, draw the defenders, and then look for support, he dithered around, looking for the faster man on his shoulder straight away. Even if he'd hit the hole and taken the tackle, that would have been something. He's either not fit enough and not thinking fast enough, or he's nothing left to offer.'"
Yes thats true, 1 trick pony with no heart, the last few weeks fans have said "give him time to settle in" He walked out at Hull and left them in the lurch ( a bit like Broughy) went to Rovers, got the boot from them and ended up at Wakey, Season finished the day he signed i'm afraid.

| Quote: WakeyReadie "I've said before even if Cooke is playing well - which he hasn't since he pulled on a wakey shirt, he is a loose cannon
He's lazy, unpredictable, unreliable and as we have already seen a waste of space when he is not interested
His move to HKR was resented and the majority of fans didn't want him IMHO his move to Wakefield is an even bigger mistake
Get rid and the sooner the better'"
and who the hell would sign the useless bone idle git
Can somebody please explain to me why we also resigned Ben Jeffries and to make it worse a bloody 3 year deal he offers nothing I have nothing but respect for King John but he has lost the plot re the signings of Ben Jeffries,Paul Cooke
I was away from home all bloody week I went from Southend to Hull and got home at near on 12 to watch that crap but that’s it I will not spend one more penny until some bugger puts their hand in their pocket to replace the likes of Newton,Brough and Tronc

Agree 100% - I said I didn't rate or like the bloke when the rumours started that we were signing him and got slagged off on here for it . Would loved to have been proved wrong but he looks worse every week .
Send him back and give young Southernwood a go !....oh hang on

| Surely the main problem is we have 2 hookers (who play more out of position) and 2 stand-offs (again playing out of position half the time.)
Leaving Cooke aside for the moment, we have Leo-Latu, who has always been a luxury player, Jeffries, who doesn't appear to have improved under McNamara, and Obst, who tries, but he's not the great player some make him out to be, and wouldn't get the plaudits if he were 6 inches taller.

| If I may stick my oar in?
I always rated Cooke whilst he was at Hull,we have had one hell of a job trying to replace him.The circumstances of his leaving is well documented.Since he has left Hull he seems to be on a downward spiral,(I don`t mean that to sound like sour grapes.)
He is an enigma,a very good player who never seems to reach full potential.I feared the worst yesterday,as he usally raises his game against us. I truly think he is a wasted talent.

that is exactly what he is all about ! he doesnt care about any thing or any one but him self ! rovers where glad to get rid of him and i feel sorry for wakefield as all he will do is collect his wages this season ,he has no loyalty to anyone and every thing you hear about him is true, and his career is now in decline

You do realise that that comment was about his treatment by our fans at the game, don't you? The booing and such? Maybe you should go back and read the thread with my comment in context.
Refusing to talk about him or discuss him at all as an SL player (and particularly when he's just been involved in a game with us) would be just as childish and silly as booing him every time he gets anywhere near the ball.

| Quote: east hull FC fan "I was merely pointing out that he hardly "under-achieved" while at Hull FC.'"
I think some people feel that he still under-achieved because he never gained a GB cap. I don't subscribe to that personally as I don't think he was ever quite good enough. I would say that he hasn't got maximum value out of his undoubted talent due to his personal issues, so he has probably under-achieved if you take his career as a whole.

| The man has abviously got talent, might just take a bit longer to coax it out of him. If he doesn't improve soon though then deffo get shut. Jeffries looked good at the start of the season I think he's lost his way a bit now, because of Broughies departure - will have been workin on that partnership all preseason, we just need to click IMO

Sorry to disagree but could you remind when this "talent" happened, washed up judas who's in love with himself.
While i'm on a rant, we should sign McGoldrick and then we'll have all the dross at the club.

| I actaully thought thought he was pretty bad and being a Hull fan that as watched him for 10 years he didn't seem interested at all. Normally when he plays Hull he plays out of his socks and I was kinda thinking before hand that he would again, glad he didnt because it wouldn't have taken much to beat Hull last night.
Two pretty bad teams out there, not sure of completetion rate but I guess its not much over 50% for both if us.

He almost single-handedly dragged us to a Grand Final appearance and played a big part in the cup win. On his day he can be a match winner but for whatever reason his "days" have been few and far between since he left Hull.

On his day Neil Fox was world record points scorer and played in fabulous team that got us to Wembley 3 years out of 4 but that does not mean if he played in the centre we would be any better.....hang on a minute....where is his phone number !
