Why all the hullabaloo about Rangi leaving he does not come into the superstar category that many seem to put him in. His kicking game is abysmal and half the time the other players have no idea what he is trying to do. If he is so good then why haven't Wigan-Leeds-St.Helens or Warrington made a move for him and if he is trying to win trophies then why go to the perennial underachievers Hull F C. We got through 2 relegations with losing lots of players not just one so i fail to see how losing one man who thinks he is bigger than the club will be our downfall. Sell him and replace him with Luke Gale from Bradford and have 2 half-backs who are team players.

If he wants to go you should get shut. Mercurial genius or not, he's doing no good for Cas right now. I hope you get a decent fee out of Hull and put it to good use.

So not only could it stop him signing for Hull it could actually stop him getting a renewal full stop.

Did i read that correctly?

The HDM doesn't have a stellar history when it comes to reporting on visa shenanigans. They have an 'incomplete understanding' of the visa rules and tend to get as much wrong as right.

Some may be dissapointed in the figure we get for Rangi but Im sure the board will get the best they can.
A product is only worth what someone will pay! I have a house for sale which in my opinion is worth 150,000 but I think Im gonna have to sell at 130,000 otherwise it stands empty and I still pay the morgage.

Er, we would expect somewhere in the region of 500k and a box of Cod fillets if you don't mind.


I hope you get him he deserves a chance.

You might get the fillets .... at a push!

That's because they aren't good enough, every player should always be ready for the ball, the ones that aren't simply don't have a good enough rugby brain to exceed at the game.

Pretty sure both Wigan & Warrington have wanted him at one time or another, and one Aussie paper claimed Brisbane wanted him to replace Lockyer, so he can't be that bad.

Agree about the bizarre thing of players wanting to go to Hull FC to win trophies, I however disagree about Gale - Ben Jeffries is the best HB at Bradford, and pairing his kicking game with Jamie Ellis' would give the club something not many teams have, 2 players with an excellent kicking game.

When Carvell left Hull to go to Warrington he said it was to win trophys we all laughed, whose laughing now? Our new owner is assembling a team to win trophys

The comment was about people who go TO Hull to win trophies. Carvell clearly LEFT Hull to win trophies

If Hull do sign Wildie I want Agar's head on a spike.

I spoke to Wildie best mate from stanley rangers yesterday and he said that he wasn't leaving wakefield at the moment

Exactly what I said. Warrington's owner put his money where his mouth is. Just what our owner is now doing. As the headline in today's Hull Dail Mail says " we'll spend money to be a true force "
