Ungrateful gits , we'll have him back in a shot! Not surprising though watching the Nrl , I think difference in quality as widened more than ever, enjoyed the Nrl games much more than sl games this year

It's been an interesting NRL weekend with the likes of Wests, Warriors and the Knights serving it up to the big boys, Storm, Cowboys and Broncos.
Our Oz conquerors sitting perfect at the top 5 from 5.

NRL is wide open this year. i've watched/followed all the games and i can't even tell you who is nailed on for top 4 let alone who'll win it. can't really rule anyone out of the top 8 either with the possible exception of the eels, but even they have the players to turn it around. crikey, even the gold coast are winning games

I think the fact that he can't tackle might hinder him in the NRL

A bit harsh, but I know where you're coming from, looks more suited to SL. Really hope he comes back one day.

Well, I was told he'd be back for 2020, but I'm not "in the know".

At FC? Who told you?

all this pretending to be in the know, or hiding behind a keyboard is increasingly boring. Bring back PaulTheRed, at least he was funny...

Hiding behind a keyboard? Is your real name P Collinson?

In front of a keyboard, surely?

A pertinent question Mrs B (but surely that's not your real name is it

)

signed for rovers on a 2 1/2 year deal

valid point,

anyway, Mahe, would take him back, but not for silly money.

Not selected again this week. Must be frustrating for him.

You'd have thought that now LR isn't coaching him he would be error free by now.

He's done well. Good to see.

Fonua got injured on his debut at home to Salford and didn't play again until the Good Friday game at Rovers (20-0 AYFIU). He then went seven games without scoring. It was from Magic Weekend that we saw the best of him.

With an extended run in the side (hopefully he's done with been knocked out for the season now) I reckon he could surpass Fonua. He's shown really good promise early on and looks less prone to errors than Fonua. He looked so strong with the ball on Thursday (granted against players out of position).

On the thread about Watts leaving, many have stated that he has gone as we need to move on.....

indeed, he isn't a Hull player...

Fonua had the x factor that I just don't see in faraimo. He's improving though and was good on Thursday. Just needs to stop getting injured/sent off/banned

I wouldn't say being clocked in the head twice and getting concussion is being injury prone, I do agree with more game time he will get better though we dont seem to go to his side the way we did when we had Fonua on the right

Who said he was injury prone?

Fonua was as instrumental as Ellis and Sneyd in our Wembley triumphs and has been an absolute standout in his time at Hull FC. He's already a legend! For anyone to suggest Faraimo is anywhere near that or will be better is clearly clueless. Faraimo has the potential to be a very good player but hes got a very long way to go to even get slightly near Fonua
