not sure how many of those came through the Hull development system though.'"
The lack of players in the recent past making the grade is what I would be worried about if I were a Hull FC fan. To say Hull is a Rugby city, the lack of talent coming from there is very poor!

| Quote ="christopher"Eh? its Ok having 'homegrown' players but they have to be good for it to count, unfortunately hull fc's homegorwn don't appear to be cutting the mustard. And unfortunately LF is pretty much on the money.
How many Internationals have come through the Hull FC system?? Yeaman and who else? Horne? who was totally out of his depth!
Its also scary for the sake of british RL that a signing like O'Mealy is seen as 'excellent'.'"
But surely our 'homegrown' players will stand a better chance of developing playing alongside say Craig Fitzgibbon and Mark O'Meley? When Dominic Maloney and Mike Burnett look to the experienced players for guidance I would much rather they listen to those 2 then King and Thackray!!!

I didnt mean on the social side of things to be honest I meant on the training pitch but I take your point!
The thing is we do have a young pool of players with potential and it is all about finding the right blend of experience and youth and these signings suggest Agar thinks the same.

There are three real stars in the making atm in Houghton, Briscoe and Burnett (okay Briscoe is from Fev but we've had him since he was very young). Whether they will make it big I don't know but they all have the ability imo to be fantastic players.

great news, unfortunately they now have an over rated injured Aussie taking their place and a big share of their pay packets!

Like who exactly? We have Berrigan at hooker but Houghton has played near enough every game this year. Briscoe was an ever present before his injury and if we get another centre/winger for next season its not going to be an Aussie. We have Fitz coming in next year but imo Burnett should play alongside him.

OK fair enough but name your starting pack for next year.

No but i have seen the Roosters a few times....shocking!
Time will tell with the O'Meley signing but changes are happening at Hull FC player wise and he is one piece of the jigsaw.
At 28 he still has the chance to produce on the pitch.

Loose: Washbrook, Whiting
Thackray, Moa and Maloney all OOC.

| There are worse players to take a punt on - at least o'Meley has some kind of ability. Big if, but ff he can get his form back he'll be the best prop in SL. Far rather him than some of the others knocking around.

Not really. For a start, international selection is hardly ever based on form or ability alone. I'm more concerned about how these players perform as members of the FC squad in SL.

Exactly.
He would make mincemeat out of the supposed SL hardmen like Ryan Bailey.

It's been largely our senior players that have been the problem for the last two seasons. Where the younger players have had to step up they've coped pretty well in the circumstances.

I'm not suggesting that they don't have big physical players in Australia it's just that the nature of super league seems to lean more towards physicality and brute strength and that's what seems to find a few of the NRL players out.'"

And with that one comment there, you sum up your knowledge of SL.
