Don't be fooled by the comments of some idiotic Huddersfield fans, Thorman is an excellent player and a very good signing.

Speaking as a neutral I cannot say I rate Thorman.Not done much last couple of seasons.

No Thorman was playing at Full back. when he went to SO everything got better. He was an automatic pick at 6



We are linked with THREE top players from down under and NONE of them are stand offs. If they all come off i can see us been in the top 3 next year and that is no exaggeration I can only assume that they are looking at playing Carney at 6 or possibly Brett Hodgson

I swear i just wet myself with laughter

The thing that annoys me was that his guy had chance to come to Hull, but didnt, and now he wants to because he hasnt lived up to all the hype he got when he went to Aus!

Why are we giving him another chance?

Good job its a 1Yr deal!

Orford wouldn't be my first choice either. Just with him been out of contrct end of next year.

Don't think were ever going to get first choice for anyone. Orford would be an excellent signing, from that list though I think Fein, Head & Kimmorley are more likely. Knowing hull they'll sign an ageing Kimmorly on a 5 year deal

If we're feeling that forgiving, we should have got Paul Cooke - he's got a decent kicking game

Thorman has a kicking game which consists of more than simply belting the ball from anywhere in the field of play over the deadball line.

So does Horne.

IMHO - Thorman has a better kicking game than Horne.

i think dykes having the op will turn out to be a success, he'll play every game and we'll do the double next year and thorman wont get a game

Where did I suggest it'd solve all his problems? Even if we only get 4 or 5 more games out of him next year he is worth keeping on as we've looked an immeasurably better side with him on the field.

Wouldn't sign none of them at all tbh Kimmorley like you said he's an old git, Head been there a no no. and Fien don't rate him as a 7.

He has a more complete kicking game, certainly.
