Aussies do this a lot and its something we have been missing for ages I think. Im sure Crocker will show us more of this when he gets here!

I think its unfair comparing Maloney to Moa as they are 2 different styles of props it would be like comparing Fielden and Feka.
If Dowes or Yak get injured or need a breather i would like to think Maloney will come into the 17 as he is a workhorse prop not a impact prop so it wouldnt upset the balance of our side.

I agree.
But i wasn't comparing them as players i was comparing their status at the club as 'projects'. As for replacing Yak or Dowsey if injured, i think King would get in first.

It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.

Couldn't give a sh 1t what he does as long as we keep Yeaman.

The same Alan Smith who moved to Scumchester because they offered Leeds the biggest fee as his team where in serious debt, the most amount of money he could go for was imperative to their survival... Something that doesn't look too close on the horizon for Hull FC but Rovers on the other hand.. (He's still a Judas loving friend though)

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!
