Very true Knocker but it's probably more about his salary and quota spot that we could do a hell of a lot more with.

I'd go with that and then use the money on a 6 or 7.

I was just going to type a similar response. I'm with you on this - particularly the first two paragraphs.

Stephen Myler.

your joking hes a union star now

to come back to league he would want mega bucks, i would hardly call him a great league player either

. rather get a young championship halfback or id like us to try and entise someone like mcnally to come to hull with a promise of been given a starting role once longy retires.

Because he's contracted.

Your using the exchange rate as a example on how to get rid but what about another overseas player? Half backs are in short supply over here as well, you won't get anyone cheep.

Cheers

I like berrigan,I rate Berrigan I.m glad Berrigan is staying.Before injury this year he was hitting good form,got injured and on return is having to cover positions that are not natural to him.
First year he was here How dire would we have been without him in the team.
Always a mission impossible to follow in the footsteps of King Richard and the run of injuries since he has been here is well documented.
Everyone states how much danny Houghton has progressed,could be that Berrigan could also have some influence on this point.
Seems the views on Berrigan are Polarised between love and hate,I think he is an asset to the team,I think people should be looking at the likes of Horney as savings on cap,because lets be honest ,and keep sentimentality out of this,He has been WELL below par even before the injuries and illness diagnosis.Berrigan has contributed a lot more to the FC cause in the last three years than Horney has.

Source?

Doesn't look like that to me, but rant about Horney does.

Horne's salary would not save as much as you think as about half of his salary doesn't count on the cap.

Really? Let's take a look at that claim, shall we?

In 2006 he got the club record for tries scored in consecutive games during our run to the GF.

In 2007 he had to play the majority of the season with no halfback partner. In the games where we had a Scrum Half he played well.

In 2008 he played just 3 games due to his neck injury. It was while injured that his diabetes was diagnosed.

Nope. Can't see any evidence there myself.

going back to the Berro thing, IMO if he has had some injuries and also personal issues then the off season should really help him

but for next season, when it sounds like he'll definately play for us, he will be in his last year and will no doubt want to impress to get a contract in australia. players who are OOC normally play out of their skin to get in the shop window

also he'll be in a more settled squad, less weight on his shoulders compared to recent seasons and i hope we see the best of him. i thought at the beginning of this season that he would be awesome but for whatever reason(s) he has been hampered

i think the negativity on berro is a little short-sighted because sometimes, signings just don't always work out like the fans want them to - look at football and some players who turn up with massive reputations and are flops. berro is no "flop" IMO, just had bad luck within our squad, but he has always tried hard IMO....and look at houghton - i think i would give credit to berro for houghtons quality this season
