burnett has signed new 2 year deal , get rid of - thorman , byrne already , moa , cusack , maybe g.horne , king, radford

Not a good signing until we sign a few more players that can play well with Long.

We need a new full back, a new stand off and a new centre.

Long will link up well with Manu/Tickle/Lauaki/Thackray and that's it.

Horne to Full Back gives us that support play that Long likes.

That means we need a new stand off, Thorman is just not good enough.
Do we give Whiting the number 3 shirt?

Long, another cast off - but this time a good one.

Now we need a top class full back PRIORITY. Not Lockyer - too old, but wouldn't be surprised its him if he's OOC.

What we need to know is which full back is OOC either at home or down under.

Any ideas anyone? Just to keep things interesting!

Oh good, it still says he's out of contract on the FC squad list. That's good to hear

burnett signed a new 3 year deal a few week ago didnt he

Yep

i will let you off then

I don't think you meant full back did you?

Yes hopefully, the squad list at the top of the Hull fc forum needs updating then

I wouldn't. I'd rather keep Tony as a Utility cover player, as he can play several positions, and we have had lots of injuries.

Great signing, he's a 7 which is what we need, but with The Chuckle Brothers at the helm, he'll be wasted!

Agreed..another Dads Army signing on the back of Fitzgibbon.

Both of these signings would have been great for you guys 3/4 years ago but now they are just stop gaps that are surplus to requirements at their current clubs.

If Saints really thought Long was upto it for 2 more years they would have given him the deal as Long did not want to leave.

If he's not good enough for Saints,why is he suddenly good enough for your lot

What disappoints me the most about this signing is that it wasn't announced at 2:00pm

Yeah tony being one of them injured players. He would want more than a one year deal, which is only what i'd want to give him
