gather him and stan are appearing in lucrative roles in latest Lord of the Rings epic

Hope he stays and hope the 2 year deal is correct. Think he will be awesome if he can keep the form he has shown at the back end of the year.

Some of the stuff that has been wrote on these boards about an actual RL legend hasnt been that great to be honest. He has had a lot of clubs and has been the model professional(forgot to add and all round good guy) at each and every one of them bar one if you speak to people within the game. Funny how its Fax where it went belly up for him.

Columnist at the back of the League Express had a dig at us this week too about how Gene only failed at Fax.

With regards to Stanley, he is a true rugby league legend, for what ever reason it did not work at Fax, if u read Stans comments when signing he had been coached by Hall before and played with Calland.

The matter is now over and we should as a club and fans put it behind us, we are champions (i will never get board of saying that)

As far as i am concered Stanley Gene is still a rugby league legend and should be remebered for all the right reason not s small blip in an otherwise amazing career/storey.

With regard to Makali, Watch his interview when joing Fax and tell me this guy does not love playing Rugby! for me its all about getting some consistancy from him, if we can do that he will add to what is turing out to be some massive forwards for fax next season!

Can't disagree with what came before Fax and I was as excited as anybody when I heard Stanley had signed. I can only say it as I see it though, and I for one see life through blue and white glasses.
Those of you who voted Tory this last election because you thought Cameron was an all round good egg can now see the irony.
At fax it is alleged Stanley did not pull his weight at training, was a disruptive influence, would not carry out his duties with regards to his school visits meaning others had to pull double shifts creating further bad feeling and that he badmouthed the coach to the press which if true, was particularly unprofessional.
How much truth there is in those allegations I have no idea but I believe what I have been told and now wish his "god like feet" had never touched the ground at the Shay.
What went before has gone. In PNG his status continues. In Halifax it is tarnished beyond repair (well, in my little part of Halifax it is). I'm sure Stanley won't be losing any sleep over what I think and it won't stop him spending his (in my opinion) "ill gotten gains."
