| FC's Facebook page is asking for people's favourite Yeamo memories.
My favourite try of his, outside of those that mean he's something like the 2nd highest derby try-scorer, was probably the one at Wembley where we went in front (albeit for about as long as the conversion took). The Hull end went absolutely mental. Also really memorable for me was his "cherry on the icing on the cake" try at Warrington in 2005 the night we sent Andrew Johns home. Loads of good memories in 2006, scored tries for fun that year before getting injured.
Too many one on one hits to pick one out really.
Derby tries, probably finishing off this year's one at the KC.
Two favourite moments were "She fell over" on Newton and the badge-pointing at Wakefield when rumours were spread that he was leaving - was really heartfelt.

| Yes, first name on the calendar teamsheet. Well, after Lynch. And maybe Watts.
This is a great photo - really captures him IMO.

| He scored a belting try from halfway at Wire a few years back. Hull got the ball from the scrum just inside their half and kicked to Wire's posts, Yeaman followed up the kick and touched down under the sticks with no Wire players near him. The scrum was to the right of the pitch so I'm guessing it was a left footed kicker, Brough maybe?
Somebody put whatever I've got wrong right please.

The Yeamo try you mention is @ 36 seconds on that well known video channel...titled Hull FC - We'll be back Punched the air when SP scored
Whilst looking for that found "Hull FC - The Best Thing In Life" Jeez we played some decent rugby during the early to mid 2000s, just a shame we haven't being consistant

Horney was amazing in that first vid. Forgot how fast Gaz Raynor was!

| Always remember Yeamo's reaction to Cooke's match winning try at Cardiff, dancing behind the posts.

| Seen the videos before, but thought I'd watch some great memories again. Like someone said we played some great attacking rugby back in 2003, 2004 and I'd say we was easliy one of the best offensive teams in SL. Another thing is we've had some great outside backs play for us and some who were legends but played during a bad spell for Hull ala Matt Sing who was an Aussie Legend and Tinga who got alot of flack.
But just think about some of our partnerships we've had.
Colin Best & Richie Barnett, that was imo the best in the league during their time together.
Gareth Raynor & Kirk Yeaman
Sid Domic & Nathan Blacklock
Tom Briscoe & Kirk Yeaman
Even Richie Barnett Jnr scored tries for fun while with us.
Also got to mention just how awesome Shaun Briscoe was for us. Brilliant.

Blacklock scored 33 tries in 47 games for us at a time when his knees were on their way out, certainly in 2006 his speed had gone due to this, still very classy player and all round top bloke.

| I personally think he is really under rated on here.
He's proved to be 1 of the most consistent centres in the league for quite a while and should probably have more England caps if it wasn't for off-season surgeries.

| I always remember him coming on the scene as a youngster and he had a game against St Helens 2003 where he really came of age and I certainly believe that game helped him become a first choice at FC quicker then expected. My two favourite FC tries of all time may not be of great skill but they both involved yeamo. The first was collect a grubber kick in the game above before putting Prekkie through a huge hole and the other one is him scoring against Bradford to send us to the grand final.
Yeaman gets a lot of stick some warranted and some not but for me he is a big game player and if you look at most of our big games over the last ten years I reckon you will find Yeamans name on the score sheet for most of them.

I always considered his name a given, if fit, on the team sheet. Wouldn't say he is under rated as his caps for GB and England show. there was a time i would shout at him for not passing to his winger but apart from that always thought he was consistent, committed and a great player, very deserving of his testimonial.
always look or him to score in the derby because he does it so much

| For a player who has been so consistent its surprisinghow much stick he gets. Worth remembering that his best form came when we had two quality halves who gave him good service and got the ball wide quickly.
His service has been limited in recent years but when he gets good ball he produces.

| I remember when McRae was coach and he saw Yeaman as a future second row , I'm glad he's stayed were he is in the centres.
