Although Phelps is playing ok he was only ever a last minute stop gap once we sacked Tansey, if he was quality he'd have already had a club and not been available.

What it does go to show is that nobody on here has got a fooking clue!



If it is a done deal the club need to get their act together and get it announced seeing as it's all over several papers.

Smailesy just said to a friend on twitter when asking about the McKinnon deal "he expects it to go through soon"

We should say no to McKinnon on the basis that some tw@of a journalist has used the "Hull of a" line to report the story.

Until we can get a bit more creativity from our reports we should hold fire...

I hope you're right. Phelpsy seems to have fitted in really well, and although understandably rusty at first is improving with every game. I like him.
If the McKinnon story is true, it seems a bit of a punt for us with his recent injuries.

The best news will be the anouncement of sam moas new deal.

When can we expect an announcement Wolfie

Hopefully closely followed by o meely!

already sorted.

Not electric pace but his speed of thought makes up for it.

Good kicker and with full time coaching and practice will be an excellent kicker.

Very good near to the line on putting players through gaps and taking the chances himself.

Has come on leaps and bounds under 'Basil' Millward who likes a good organising Scrum half (Longy?).

Great team player but don't expect 75m breaks he's more of a creator for others.

Quite tall for a scrum half and has beefed up around the torso and shoulders since coming to Leigh which makes him strong in the tackle.

He left Saints under a cloud, but seems to have put that behind him and has been a model 'pro' this year turning up for 'out of hours' pro-mo's etc.

McKinnon signs... Can Phelps not sign too? Should Lauaki and Fitz leave we have two spots on the quota? Unless they have someone else lined up, I don't see why they can't do this, unless they go into the season with a quotas space availlable. Perhaps they should just re-sign Mr Fitzgibbon.

Sorry mate, you need a reality check.

Simon Mannering is the captain of NRL Grand Final contenders NZ Warriors and a cornerstone of the reigning World Champion and Four Nation-winning Kiwi team.

He is 24 years of age and would be one of the most sought-after players on the open market, just at a time when the NRL salaries are going to explode (due to increased TV revenue next year).

It will be a long time before you see anyone of his pedigree arriving at Hull FC (or any other Super League clubs for that matter).

I'm afraid it will be injury-scarred 'have-beens' like Wade McKinnon arriving in Super League from Australia next year, or none at all!
