Kingy??

Actually, since Moa seemed to be the only player not to suffer a drop in form last night, maybe he'd be worth a punt.

Well i remember when we played Leeds last season away and we needed a half back n Dowes put his hand up



but seriously fair enough washy and whiting ant had a go yet but hall was only new so why not give em a go.

It says whiting is fully fit on the hull fc web site.

have we got another washy at the club, because you cant mean danny washbrook.

so we offer a reserve aussie a load of money and miss out on other signings because of quota restrictions.

No. Since imo i think crocker will get refused again so we will have a lot of money to spend on a decent aussie full back since that is the only place i would like to see our quota space go to.

And even if crocker does come which i hope he does, we release Byrne since he is injured and still buy someone who actually [uplays the position[/u

lets be fair we started the season with tony, byrne and hall (agar has said hes been training him in this position) all in line for the fb spot we've been unfortunate with tony and byrnes injuries.

the standard of player we'll be able to sign from oz now wont be that high, and they'll probably want a few years deal.

Give them a few years then. It will be decent to have a full back who actually classes it as the position they originally want to play in.

we have one in tony.

are you suggesting we give a reserve nrl fb a few years deal just so were covered until tony gets back?

Tony is a hooker and we decide to play him in full back. Tbh i think we were stupid to get rid of the future england full back (Briscoe).

I think we could get a decent full back from nrl and not a reserve.

When is tony suppose to be comin back then?

Tony was a FB in the NRL and has been one of the top 3 FBs in SL when fit. Briscoe never will be an England FB.

i'll ignore the 1st load of balls



why would a nrl side release their fb to come to us?

Is that why when he played for his country he ended up playin hooker?

Brisco s all over Tony any day. If we could if throw as much money to briscoe as possible to get him back or actually get someone who originally plays.

When is tony suppose to be back?

Tony is 6 weeks away.

he plays 9 for NZ as they have Brent Webb!

Money; simple as.

like tony when he first started?

i knew this would turn into a briscoe v tony debate!

the rumours are end of april.

So were goin to play hall there for 6 weeks. well he is goin to get ripped to next week for a start.

doom and gloom, are you a rovers fan in disguise!?

That may change if Lee Smith fooks off to union.

so we pay a transfer fee? wtf?

i agree.

Iv been an fc fan for 8 years, all im sayin is i think we have missed briscoe and players like Hall dont live up to the expectations.

of who? hes a back up player with potential.

hall had an iffy 40 mins. All players are allowed that. To even suggest Hall is at fault for the defeat without naming the other 16 players is plain wrong. Hall has far more promise than Shaun Briscoe has ever shown, he just needs to develop it. Im not even gonna get into the Motu v Briscoe debate again.

its interesting to see that Hall didnt get slated when he scored 2 very good tries last week and when weve been winning!

Wellens, Reardon, Platt, Sykes will probably all be in with a chance before Briscoe. (i'd love to see Briscoe play there but i doubt it)

disagree there dave, if smith goes its between briscoe and wellens imo.

doesn't bode well tbh, the ozzies have 4/5 genuine class fb's to chose from.
