Hood was dreadfull, spent more time selling raffle tickets than playing - haad one good game against Cas as far as I recall.

hull fc fan in peace, defo imo best blockbusting prop atm in SL, when does his contract run out? if its this year are you hopeful of keeping him? if not can we have him please

He has an option for another year.
I imagine we are trying to tie him longer than that though.

It's a pity that Shane Tronc didn't stay longer.
He was the real deal but IIRC, he left around the same time as Brough, when the cast started to run out.
Tronc never appeared that strong but, boy, was he effective.

In terms of quality I still think Tronc is the best prop we have had in the Super League era, he was basically unstoppable for the first 5 or 6 games of the 2010 season.

Agreed - one of the best - but too short-lived to have the same status as some of the others being mentioned.

I say this once a year - but I recall that he continued to top several of the charts - including meters made and tackle busts - for a couple of months after his departure, so far ahead of his peers was he.

I've followed Trin since the mid-80s and seen some quality players. As far as forwards go, some really stood out for me and Fifita is certainly one of my all time favourites now.

When it comes to top forwards for me I'd have to include:
Fifita,
Solomona,
Ray Price - absolute legend and maybe edging it as the best player I've ever seen in a Wakey shirt (I only started watching Trin a year/two after Wally Lewis)
Nigel Bell
John Glancy - maybe a little controversial but he was very underwritten and a tackling machine

Big Dave is 3rd in MOS polling with Brough 5th.

David has really kicked on this year and is as good as any prop in the league,he looks like he has a real appetite for the game,and it’s a credit to the club and the man that we are privileged to witness a true club legend of the game .How he can turn a game around not only by his bullocking runs but also his enthusiasm for work is immense,the whole team lifts when big Dave’s on the field ,and long may it continue .

I wish we could have seen a full season from Tronc. If he'd have carried on from those first handful of games, he'd have been a favourite for every award going.

Whose above, if its Hurrall I give up.
