Totally, took a few wrong options on the last tackle too but even so with fulltime training and under a decent coach still think he could be a very astute signing.

Could have a Danny Brough like impact on the club. Remember that he came from the NLs with not much expectation and ended up kicking us to a CCF win in Cardiff.

HOPEFULLY Ellis can do the same

what, smoke and drink and cause a general malaise in the squad, I hope he doesn't have the Brough FC effect.

I hope Ellis has grown up a bit quicker than Brough did.

Except that Brough did no such thing.

Hopefully Ellis will be a lot better for us than Brough ever was.

Are you trying to say that Brough didn't play well for Hull?

Now you're basing your argument that on him creating 12 points a game, and only giving away one try every third game.
I could easily say he creates 4 points a game but misses 3 vital tackles costing 12 points a game. You do the math.

Haha good effort though buddy!

He did OK overall but I certainly wouldn't hold up his performances as anything for Ellis to aspire to. And he certainly didn't 'kick us to a CCF win' in anything but the literal sense of landing the last goal kick.

He's a far better player now than he ever was for us.

Less of your cheek young man, plus im better than him

I really like the look of Ellis, he has some-thing special and I am positive he will go well in SL.He definitely reminds me of Judas, a very exciting prospect imo.

I thought he played a massive part in our final performance. Most certainly one of the best players on the pitch IMO.

Considering he wasn't meant to play such a big part in the season so early, the fact that he broke onto the scene and knocked someone out of the starting lineup against expectations is something I'd suggest as worth aspiring to in a first season for Ellis. Played awesome in the play-off game against Wire as well and one of Kear's biggest mistakes was dropping him for that what's-his-face journeyman the week after.

And obviously he's going to be a better player now (nearly 5 years after leaving us at a young age and with heaps of potential) than he was then. Would love to see him back at Hull.

Disagree with all that TBH.

I sometimes think I lived through a parallel timeline while Brough was here as history seems to get re-written on a regular basis. He gets better the further away from his performances we move.
