Agree. The young lads will learn massively from him over the two years he will be with us.

Would have loved to have seen big Frank 'The Tank' in a Hull shirt but in reality that was never going to happen.

Minichello is no mug & his signing gives us one thing we have lacked, consistency. The blokes played NRL for years and could still be next year. Don't knock the bloke yet. He's definitely a step up in standard on a lot of imports been brought over recently by both us and other clubs. Not saying he's the best signing ever but he's not a reserve grader or someone with potential. He's been there and delivered for years so we 100% know what we're getting.

Recruitment is definitely heading in the right direction. Would be interesting to know who we'd have ended up with had Gentle, Bomber & Howes had still been in bed together.

Wonder if he's counts on the overseas quota with playing for Italy?

Good signing, maybe not exactly the type of backrow forward I thought we needed, but still a very good player, who was still wanted by one of the best clubs in the world.

Much better recruitment from Hull, the key is each player must improve the side and be better than the ones they are replacing, that is certainly the case this season.

A centre and a couple of players re-signing are key.

what a signing. very happy with this one. great experience, will do the kids the world of good, and forwards are always at the prime in the 30's.

welcome to fc

I wouldn't have thought so, which makes him an even better signing.

Do you think Leeds consider it a gamble when year on year they renew the contracts of Peacock and Lealuai?

given that their medical/condition staff have worked with them for a few years, it may be an INFORMED gamble, taking players from O/S that you don't have experience of is more of a gamble, surely?

Old misery guts has entered the building.

Just look at the amount of games missed,surely.

that is an indicator, yes, but having a player with your team of staff is a much better indicator, he may have played injured etc.?

Good signing, what I've seen of him this year, big, aggressive, scores a few tries to

Well isnt any signing a gamble. No matter age or injury record.

Tuson is 26, didnt have a bad injury record and he is now retired after a handful of games.....

he got an unlucky injury, as far as I know it wasn't a reoccurrence of anything previous?

Good signing. Always gives 100% and will add some leadership to our problematic right side. (I believe he usually plays left but I can't see us switching Ellis over.)

Unfortunately (because I'm old and a bit strange) I now can't get this advert out of my hadCMMGSXuUuxs[/youtube
