The quiet man,doesn't say much just gets on with it.Very classy centre who is such a pleasure to watch.Not many good centres about,hope he's with us for a long time

Could always see he had some class about him. Really showing his class now.
He's benefitted from finding a position that really suits him, and he's made it his own.
What I'm impressed with is how strong he is. As good as he is offensively, his defence isn't too shabby either.

Haven't been there since me and my mate had to fight our way out of Robins Nest a few years ago (the day it lashed it down and Webster got the drop goal winner, 11-10, if memory serves).
Got smashed watching it in pub mind. Did 13 solid hours in there as a means of celebration.

Yup, and Tuli had big raps for Carlos as well yesterday.

I was working yesterday but last week both Carlos and Josh were causing carnage against Catalan's and long may it continue.

Carlos is one of the best centres in Super League. Doesn't get the recognisiton he deserves.

I'm another one who would rate him as my favourite Hull player.

Following his initial stint at 6 where he did a job for us without really looking at home, I thought we may get more of the same when Radders moved him to centre. His early performance bore that out for me both in defence and with ball in hand.

But with time in the roll you could start to see him slowly develop. His contact in defence has always been good but he added to this a near perfect positional sense that makes him now an outstanding defensive centre. Towards the back end of last season he then started to add, something to his attacking centre play. His timing and acceleration and more than anything that graceful classy centres stride makes him look like a Rolls Royce, it's effortless and silky smooth.
Now he seems to be consistently performing at this level , and he's clealrly enjoying it. If he could move up to the next level he has the potential to be one of Hull FCs great Centre ThreeQuarters.

Of course he's not yet a James Leuluai, James came to us with his reputation already in place as a top international centre. But if Carlos's rate of improvement in his last 20 games can be maintained and he has some longevity with the club , we could be seeing the emergence of one of our greatest ever centres.
I really believe he could be that good. It's hard find a flaw in his game at the moment as it is.
We are very lucky to have him and of course Radders and Lastys vision and decision making should not be underestimated in the amazing development Carlos Tuimavave.

very good post uppo,agree with all you say about Carlos.pity I can only see him on TV,nowadays.

Good to see you on here again George. Hope your health is improving.

Now, now.
I can't be @rsed to look for it but it was the game before he scored a hat-trick when you were mirthed with Radford (just for a change) for letting Rawsthorne go.
You were finding fault with Tuli and said you wouldn't be bothered if he was let go instead.
Hasn't stopped scoring since.

Great post. You have just restored my faith in this board with something worth reading!

thanks mal,not doing too bad,back and forth to hospital every 6 months now,instead of yearly.hope you have a nice easter.george.
