[size=85:2i96kzio]We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.[/size:2i96kzio]:14109.jpg |

Yep. I've never seen a player so focussed at every PTB in defence and attack. The fact that he was on the spot and full of running for that try on 79 minutes just sums the man up. 2 year extension please.

| It's a complete honour and privilige to watch him.
We have had some greats at our club and Sir Craig is definitely well on the way to joining them.
If we finish top 4 and he plays 80-90% of our games i'll eat my hat if he doesn't get Man Of Steel.

Everyone knows he is a legend of the game in Oz. The difference here is that you never know when a signing comes over if they are over the hill or here for a holiday etc. Fitz has put his marker down very quickly and as you say he has had an enormous impact on our squad. He's a freak.

| I think it certainly helped that Fitz and O'Meley came over in mid November. They had plenty of time to get used to their new surroundings and settle in at the club. This compares to previous years when overseas signings arrived after Christmas or even in the new year.

To be fair they seem to have far better attitudes than some previous signings anyway.

Aye, no doubts about that.

| Chuck Norris doesn't need help but the only number he has in his mobile is Fitz's.
On a serious note, this has set the bar very high for Hull's future signings. I know its early days but we need to be acting now for future recruitment, because finding players of similar stature in the game is going to be hard when it comes to replacing Long, Fitz and Berro.
We cant have another episode like a few years ago when we got poor replacemnets (or none in some cases) for our very influential players that had left. Kearney, Brough, Cooke etc..

| SIR FITZ
When they scored their first try, we could see him really getting the message across to the team, not just shouting and swearing at the top of his voice, and literally all of the players were transfixed on what he was saying.
A true role model and a living legend.

| Quote: hull smallears "Kearney did not do what Fitz has done already. Kearney was a leader but only achieved in a handful of games for FC. Fitz is immense. Let us not forget, an NRL legend and superstar. We are very lucky. What a player'"
I disagree, Kearney produced in 2 of the biggest games of the last 2 decades (the CC semi and final) and is one of the best players to pull on the black and white IMO
Fitzgibbon has been fantastic, but we haven't yet seen him in a tense game (I have no doubt he would produce a great performance though!) so I'd say their both on a par for the moment.

I think this is a very good point, replacing Long is the biggest decision the club will make in the next few years. It can make or break a club, Bradford for example spent big on Harris and messed it up, and have now had to miss the playoffs and spend big again (on Orford) to rescue the situation.
