| Quote Richo="Richo"Really i'm lost for words, don't get me wrong Swain was superb, but for someone to say Manu was not even in the top 15????
For me he's been not only our best overseas signing, but probably in a carlsberg sense the best 2nd row in the country, had he been in a top 4 team?
Here's hoping Daniel Holdsworths trumps the lot!'"
Everyone is entitled to have there own opinions. As much as I liked Manu I don't think he is as good as other players mentioned. He would challenge but never get on the top 10. If you have only followed Hull FC since Manu came than obviously he has to be in the top 10. The more experienced FC fans will probably get the top 10 spot on or close. I can only comment from the Hull sharks era until now. |

Your right Jed, that's what debate is all about, I have been following FC since 78 so it's well and truly in my blood! I know what I saw from Manu over many great players was he was consistently top notch in some pretty e teams!

If every player put in the same comitment and dedication as Swain. That would be an amazing team. Swain reminded me of Roy Keane, not the most naturally gifted player to play the game but was such a top top professional and in the 35 years of watching Hull, he is my all time favourite player

I wouldn't say that Swain wasn't naturally gifted, because the only thing he didn't have in his locker was pace. Apart from that I'd say he was was up there with the best give or take. Tackling, there was no one better than him during his time as a pro. |

He was probably the greatest tackler the game has ever seen. What I mean by naturally gifted was he wasn't the most skilful player I've ever seen. But he was the most professional player to have ever played for our club. Don't get me wrong I'm not knocking him, like I said he is my all time favourite player |

So many top players missing here if omeley is top ten god help us! Remember the hull v Halifax cup semi finals - Dave brooks n terry regan! Coleman was great but never as good as sterlo, muggleton was good but second season poor!
