You might have won a play off game if you'd had a decent hooker though

did I say that...

What I said was Orford wasn't as special in the game the other week as people are making out. There is a list of big name, high paid aussies who come over here and never reach the heights that people expect of them. All clubs have had one or 2 and yet the fans seem to adopt the emperor having no clothes mentality with them and praise them above every one else.

Dobbo was top drawer for us last year, whether you'd want to admit it or not is another thing, and seemed a very good fit for our team. He hit the ground running scoring tries and pulling all the strings from the off and his game seems very suited to the English game.
Orford has yet to prove he can do this, yes he has the pedigree but moving comps / country is another thing.

I would have thought most Hull fans who post on here must doubt his quality anyway as he has no aussie caps and that seems all that matters.

and two 2009 wooden spoon winners are now your marquee signings...

oh and you forgot your one time 2nd choice full back is now Englands number 1.

The same one that famously "wasn't fit to lace cockaynes boots" when played on the west of the city? that one?

We might have, but it's not guaranteed. After all, you never reached one with three decent hookers.

Just caught it now lol

He still speaks alot of sense but obviously not on this occasion, its his crazy predictions that are way off the mark lol

[size=50How come such a fantastic player can consistently talk BS lol[/size

No offence but i would rather take his word for it rather than yours.Clarky's predictions in recent years have not been far off,including yourselfs.

Is this the same guy who said Warrington were going to win the Grand Final, then jumped to Catalans oh never mind....

Why is Clarky the Nostradamus of the Rugby world?

He's as clueless as the rest of the pundits.

Didn't he predict many events which have subsequently happened - depends which way you look at it i suppose!!!

Strangely enough, the generality of the commentators seemed to think otherwise, and that on his debut for the club having not even been able to outside-train with the squad until earlier that week.

You can search his entire works and NOWHERE do's he predict a Wembley win for FC
