Stolen from the Cas board which was apparently stolen from the Widnes board.

Who have been the hardmen to play for Hull over the years? Only been following Hull for about 11 years so haven't seen the majority of the hard b@$T@rDs.

Who are they..?

Paul Woods!

An absolute nutcase but also a fantastic player. A shame he was only at Hull for a couple of seasons.

Without doubt it had to be Paul Woods

paul rose, fred akoi just for his boxing skill.

rob wilson, didnt like him as a player but remember him nearly breaking a widnes player in half, cant remember his name but went over to play in aus for a while.

Harvey Howard.

Craig greenhill ,remember his fight with Barry ward was a classic

thats him we also had a hardcase aussie i think he was called terry regan i might be wrong though,

Woodsy

brad hepi could look after himself,

we had a lad in the ateam that was there hardman a good ballhandling second rower never understand why he didnt get his chance think he was called nicky rushden weve had worse make the first team.

Lee Crooks agrees (I'm midway through his book).

Liked the story about the revenge attack on the Oldham player!

I think Woodsy was once sent off playing for Wales and got an 8 match ban.

Jim Macklin was one of the toughest blokes in hull if not the toughest in his prime.

Made me chuckle too. I didn't even know he was a Fullback/halfback. I assumed by the way in which people spoke of him that he was a prop!

Charlie Stone seems to get a few mentions as a tough player, never saw him myself.
