He'll struggle this year, we're not playing your mob.

Yes, the only player in that squad never to have represented their country or played origin, you certainly got the big name there.

Ask Michael Crocker his opinion of Clint Newton when you see him.







Oooops.

Sorry, still wasn't a big name.

hmmm, Berrigan and 12th in the league, or Newton and 3rd...I just cannot decide...

|Well that would depend on whether you needed a hooker or a 2nd rower wouldn't it?

Or a player who rarely misses a game compared to one carrying injuries or under the knife. HTH

And herein lies the difference between Hull and Rovers at present. You'd prefer to sign a "big name" who has been there, done it, and worn the jersey regardless of their current age/fitness.

Rovers on the other hand sign players with something to prove and a desire for success, at an age where they are not over the hill and coming into their prime.

It's the difference between 3rd and 12th.

Just shows what a plank you are, you'de rather have a big named pentioner, than someone that can still play, thats why your at the bottom and were not

wouldnt say that 34 games for australia,21 SOO games for nsw,1 clive churchill medal,5 grand finals and 463 NRL games between them makes them losers in my opinion...
.......were all rugby fans here, so show these guys some respect for there achievemnets as i do for your lot..
lovegrove...0 games for st george,
vella ...11 SOO and 11 oz caps
galea...1 gf win
newton...1 gf win
dobson...20 games for canberra

ps..i didnt include fitzy as he wont be there next season...

He's a top player and one I wouldn't mind seeing in a Rovers shirt, but big names with impressive cv's don't always win you games, as you well know.

GAME, SET AND MATCH

But we were talking about our respective clubs abilities to sign big names not which team has had the best form this year, so you have in fact changed the subject due to your club not being able to sign big names, taking nothing away from the fact your nomarks that have done well (mainly due to having a settled side).

You see just when we think we are going over the top rubbing the fact that we are a much much better side than you, A bitter jealous envious Hull fan like you appears and makes it all worthwhile

Long may your big name signings and our relative league positions continue.

That as maybe but FC have had 2 good seasons!



Take the injuries and the fact FC are managed by the Chuckle Brothers (no offence Baz and Paul) and they have over achieved!!!!

They won't.

Are you going to sign anyone to strengthen your side for next season?, most of the teams below you will be.

Yes, when will you be annoucing any signings to strengthen you?

Name me a signing that hasn't so far.

Most of them already did.

If we were to sign Bernie Clifton (Warrington would probably beat us to the bird) he would strengthen us at the moment, what’s your point?

You aren't strengthened because someone says oh he's a lovely lad in the dressing room and he used to play for australia

So which of our new signings don't you rate over what we have now then?

5 years ago maybe but now at his age NO THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
