Wahey! Another one who likes to peddle Standee's favourite myth.

| Quote: Dave K. "Mcgoldrick would be waste of a signing, he isn't good enough for a team hat wants to in he top four, we already have Horne signed on as the halfback and FB cover.
After horne I woud rather see shall and nicklas play to see what they can do.'"
With all due respect Dave, Lauaki was hardly ripping up trees with us but he signed for the then champions.
IMO McGoldrick showed he was more effective than Horne in the few games he played and showed in a decent team he is not the cheap shot merchant some thought him to be.
That being said, if there was someone else available and willing to come to Hull, that would be a different matter.

| Quote: Mrs Barista "See on another website we may have got a very tough first few games. Would we fancy Leeds early doors with their WCC distractions? Personally I don't mind the idea of some difficult fixtures early - see where you're at and theoretically a chance to catch some top teams cold.'"
Leeds start slowly and build for the play offs, which to be fair, has worked a treat for them. They aim to be at full pelt for about round 6 -8, meaning they are still a little under cooked in the early rounds.

Regards Lauaki, he isn't playing in such a key position as Mcgoldrick is, also having watched Lauaki last season, my opnion still hasn't changed and he is an average SL, who did nothing of note at Wigan last year. I really dont know how he plays for Wigan and got the length of his deal.
Once again I have not said that Horne is a better player at halfback than Mcgoldrick, but Horne is contracted, Mcgoldrick isn't and I see no point at all in having both as backups, waste of salary cap.
I thought Mcgoldrick did well for Hull, much better than expected but I feel that some Hull fans are over playing how good he was for us. I suggest some people watch a the Catalans, Wigan and Widnes games when he was truly awful (some others were).
IMO there is no point in having Mcgoldrick, when Horne is signed on, if Horne wasnt here and for a year at the right price Mcgoldrick would be a decent option.

| If he goes,do we sign another winger(as things stand) or go with Crookes and Lineham?? Personally atm,would give the 2 lads a go,and use salary cap elsewhere

| As good a player as Briscoe is (and he's very good), do you think it makes sense to tie up a large % of salary cap on a winger? I know you have plenty spare at present, but this may change in 2014.

Of course we want him to stay but if he goes we have Tom Lineham ready and waiting,and one more year of progress should do him good.Did exceptionally well before he got injured,and has pace to burn,certainly more than Briscoe.Plenty of work to be done but he's quality..

If martin offiah played in this era, he would command a massive wedge.
Not suggesting Briscoe is the new Offiah, after all Tom can tackle
