Burke had a lot of injury problems but he does have some quality he's at least on par with Clarkson

There is a pencil sketch of the great Rovers team from the 80s in my local boozer here in Wakey. I reckon the artist used a whole pencil on the taches alone, not to mention the hair.
And yes, can we please have Albert.

That's where we went wrong.

Lack of 'tache's.

See Garry Clarke and Dave Watkinson.

Even Gordon Smith tried to camoflauge how awful he looked with a bit of facial topiary for a while.

We're working our way back with hair, we won't let Alby go, not with his magnificent 'fro.

thought campese did well,getting through the super league show without getting injured.bbc were ready though,they had another player in the back studio in case campese pulled up.

Who was it?

Sorry, was that an attempt at humour?

i have never had a go about kelly but i have said campese needed to do the right thing and retire if he got another injury and that what he said himself last week that he was so close to calling it a day.. also i do fear for our hull kr team next season if hull daily mail is to believed about mcbanana i mean they are saying he is still favourite for the job i really hope we ain't going for cheaper option or just because hes close freinds with hudgell

I hope Steve McNamara is our coach in 2017. Former national coach who has spent 3 years working under a truly outstanding coach in the NRL.

I don't like the man, but since when was that a qualification requirement for the job?

i understand that sir stan, i cannot stand the guy personally but yes he was national coach but how many hull kr players or fc players did he pick when both teams were doing well. but if he is the best we can have then i will accept it i trust the board 110%

When were both teams doing well

When Macnamara was 7

ha ha but surely if we do get him he may have improved i suppose and people on facebook say it ain't gonna be him. but i guess we have to wait til kr reveal it

Who are people on Facebook saying it is

fun time frankie someone on red army saying they got told it ain't mcbanana but he said either seibold or furner in the running.. i just don't believe it but guess have to wait til the 8's are sorted before kr make announcments i suppose.. wouldn't mind furner but then i would of liked like i said before mcdermott he ain't that bad has a coach he just knew this time would come were these older players would retire like peacock and sinfield and the likes of burrows and mcguire getting on a bit and he hasn't got the right cover to replace these and the injuries like us

iestyn harris but he got pizzed again in the green room so wasn't fit to play anyway

If it was macnamara then I don't see why it hasn't been announced yet. Hardly going to make any difference to the roosters. Now if it were mcdermott then I can see why no announcement has been made

Furner has a record of mediocre followed by collapse, seriously hope it's not him.

macnamara aspires to mediocre

He was on a loser at Bradford, the club was melting down beneath him. Thought he did a decent job with England.

I quiet like him & as you say he did a good job with England, but with most on the East side he will always be associated with FC. For me Siebold ticks all the boxes with me, ex Rovers State of origin & NRL assistant coach, coaching experience in the lower UK league, he would do the job.

Spoke to McNamara at the Allianz the other week, I asked him if was coming and he just smiled and said he wasn't allowed to say anything yet. Personally I'd love to have him at the club, he's a Hull lad with plenty of experience and has built up his NRL contacts. He's also learnt a lot from the brilliant Roosters youth set up.

A Hull lad yes, but didn't he once say he disliked Rovers !

Doesn't bother me one bit about his FC links, there are plenty around that have links to both sides. If he comes in and does well then that's all forgotten, if he's rubbish hes that B&W bstud.

Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

East Riding lad, not Hull if you don't mind. Ex South Holderness pupil so is ok as coach for me
