Not at all, but I wouldn't say Smith or Lynne are in that category yet, someone has suggested to me that it was possibly Barnett Snr, I tend to agree.

The funniest thing is you agree with him...

Hul beat Saints to sign Fitzgibbon.

Correct, and Fitz will tell any-one this!

Doubt it, but we'll never really know (as many are saying in general about this point).

I could understand a player turning FC down for Saints (LMS)

Ask Fitz he will tell you, he is often at Junior Rugby matches.

Am I the only one that remembers hearing Long said he turned down Wigan?

sometimes I think players just dint fancy living in Hull.

Unfortunate but true, especially seen as though we've not come near to really winning anything for a while (yes, we had a CC final, but we were never going to win it)

He said it and it was well documented in the media.

I'd agree with O'Meley, Fitzgibbon and Moa being good signings but I don't really see it with Lauaki to be honest. I expected a lot more from him than we got last season and for such a big player he needs to do more damage and be more consistent. I'm sure there are those who think otherwise, but it is just my humble opinion
