| I say thanks to Fitz and goodbye. I think the salary he undoubtedly commands could be spent with greater effect on a younger marquee signing. That's not to belittle his contributions but he is slowing though still buts in a great shift.
As for Long I say goodbye and good riddance, has never justified the outlay we have made on him and again the money could be better spent elsewhere. Can't believe we'd offer him a deal.

| I would say it would depend what salary we could get them both for.
However I still feel a new (younger) no7 is the clubs top priority. We need to sign someone who we can build the team around for future years.

| Long played very well today but it was the exception rather than the rule and he'll be injured again before long.
As for Fitz I'd give him another year if he wanted it. Menzies is still delivering the goods and he's 37 now.

| I would say thank you for the service to the game Fitz, but no extension. too many times today once the ball got to fitz in Rovers 20 everything seemed to go into slow mo. Fitz doesn't have the skills of someone like Westerman who should be in the receiving positions that Fitz was in today

| As soon as Gleeson signed for 18 months that signalled to me that Long would be getting another year.

| Quote east hull FC fan="east hull FC fan"If Longs only going to turn up for the odd Derby match and the Saints games then no.
Fitz...only if he was played as prop, the 13 shirt is Westermans for me.'"
Good points.
If Long can play like he did today for the rest of the season then yes give him another deal, he needs to stay fit though and be consistent.
Fitz again yes provided we play him at prop, Westy is a born 13 and needs to start playing there from next season.
Also depends on who else is available.

Well said.
I would consider giving them both deals depending upon what other options may or may not be available. No point in getting rid if the replacements are not up to the same standard.

| Long no, the club has know for at least a year that we would need a halfback, so hopefully they have someone lined up.
Fitz I would for another year, I would say yes, I can't see us getting a player from the NRL better than him, still as fit as ever. But as others have said not as a LF, prop or 2ndrow.
Use the quota spots of Lauaki and Phelps to sign a couple of backs.

| Fitz, most definitely and should stay as captain. A true leader and a fantastic grafter - has more than earnt another year at Hull FC imo, if he wants it. Further, I think his fitness allows for it as well.
Long - fitness has to be a major concern, further, he does seem to only be a big game player which works for us well in games like yesterday, not so much when we are playing Crusaders etc. One thing we need at Hull is what Fitz brings imo, consistency.
