Wanted impact and got it with those 3.and all younger than the 2 props we are losing.

Got to keep him fit 1st...he is a biscuit body.

He'll go well with the rest of our squad then won't he.

Mika will not add that much grunt and aggression, trust me, well that's unless he improves dramatically.

Just had a look and he's played 19 SL games this year. If he plays 19 next year I'll be fairly happy.

Thats it though...he may improve with us.

It seems unlikely, given our talent for making good players into crap ones.

Didnt realise that many...i know he has had a bad couple of seasons and a fit Langley is a very good player...seems as though he played more this season than our captain fantastic.

Who like?

Beat me to it.

Holdsworth for a start, looked a good player at Salford. According to this forum, he has gone backwards, rapidly.

Holdsworth has been gash from day 1.....offers bugger all in attack..gets the ball and just ships it out.

That's the point, gone backwards since joining FC.

I think 'good to crap' was a bit strong, but I don't believe we have a record of getting the best out of players. Look at Ellis this season. Was a world beater at Wests, but he's been no better than 'quite good' this season. Sean Long is another that springs to mind. Chris Thorman was only ever average before he joined us, but plummeted to being utterly awful upon pulling on a black and white shirt.

A lot of the issue I think is that we seem to lack any sort of attacking structure for them to work in.

Probably a large part of the problem, yes.

Wasnt good enough for us anyway.

Thompson was an ordinary enough signing on it's own but now in the space of three days, we sign Feka from a French scrap heap, embarrass the whole club at Huddersfield, offer Radford the head coach's role and now we are linked with the fcking god awful Con Mika!

Has AP lost a grip on reality or is our club the biggest laughing stock in the world of RL?

I'm honestly lost for words! BEL13VE 5K

Hull have said they are not signing Mika. Although that depends who the Mail asked, of course.

Should have signed Langley

They've also said on numerous occasions that there is no truth in the Gentle rumours or the Andy Lynch to Cas rumours.

What happened to Andy Hay?

young for a prop, could still improve. or could be another squad member. so long as we get value for money im not gonna judge

Mika? Back rower mate.

Good question, this is a guy deemed good enough to be awarded a Shaun Edwards scholarship to travel to Australia to spend time with the be coaches in the NRL. I would prefer Hay to Radford.
