Not at all. Vella is a has been, Clinton couldn't break his way out of a paper bag, Mason is obviously a class player but he needs to be in the country first. tbf I am a fan of Lovegrove though.

put the cap back on the permanent marker pen. fat sam is no where near the quality of vella or clinton. your club will never progress when you chase the players of cusack's calibre.

Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ?

You're wrong about Vella, covers, directs and defends all over the park. Despite what a lot of Rovers fans say, he had a good season last year, mainly because we didn't flog him to death as in previous years. That was because of Clinton who was very good, ties a lot of players up and is a really intelligent prop who has a decent pass on him as opposed to just barging the ball up the middle.
I'm going to go against the grain and say I'd take Moa, lacks agility in defence but can certainly draw three or four defenders into the tackle and as you've previously said has an offload game that he seems to be developing well. When it looked like you weren't going to offer him a contract at the end of 2009, I'd have been more than happy for us to sign him.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Moa is a pretty good impact prop with an excellent offload. Wasted at FC as we always look surprised when he does this, despite it happening every other carry.

I didn't think the thread could go downhill after the op, how wrong was I.

I must admit though I am loving reading the prediction thread on here, it is so predictable and soooo last season
How the hell is Hull FC stronger in the pack then Rovers, Fatter maybe.
Man for man we are faster more skillful and stronger, yes you have one or two ok players and a good one but overall your pack was owned by ours ask Scott Murrell.

Peter Gentle was rejected by Hull KR as their new head coach due to his lack of ambition.
