Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

| Quote chico's nose="chico's nose"I personally believe that Tommy Lee has a long and bright future at Hull FC, and that the signing of Sean Long could kick start his career.
Tommy received a lot of flack the 2 seasons before this, and although I added my opinion on several occasions, I felt that the extent that some supporters went in their criticism was a little too far.
The kid was thrown in at the deep end when we had no other options after a certain skid mark did his dirty on us. Although Tommy never set the world alight, he laced up his boots and tried his best. Although his best was often not good enough, the vast majority of fans simply forgot how young he was and why he was playing for us. In an ideal world he would have had another season or so to develop in the under 21’s before getting the odd chance to sample first team action, unfortunately that was never the case.
I still believe that Tommy has the potential to be a good scrum half, if the club let him get back to basics. He played the socks of the aussies when he played against them at school boy level, and that does not happen by accident. Hull has done to him what they do to too many players in my opinion and that is bulk him up too much. For the past 18months to two years I feel that he has been to big to play SH, thus impacting on his performances when he plays there.
I hope that the club let him run off some of his bulk and use the signing of Long as an opportunity to turn Tommy Lee into the SH he should have always been. The kid is still young, had bags of potential as a SH up until a year or two ago, and now has a chance to train day in day out with one of the best 7’s this country has produced. This gives him the opportunity to rediscover his confidence and form in the position he has played most of his life in. He would still be relatively cheep, so this should be a “Project” for Hull to work on and take advantage of and possibly develop a decent 7 for us for the next 6 or 7 years.'"
Terrific post. Completely agree. | | | |

Perhaps those same people are now actually using their brain? Just a thought. | | | |
