I knew yesterday morning while MHL was spouting his gob off, i didnt think it was getting announced so soon though

Tansey wasnt going anywhere near Hull yesterday, your opinion = Null!

not very, i asked a question of why would he come back. never said he wouldn't

amazingly barely no one replied at the time of the question.

no you didnt!

feel free to find where i said he wouldn't come back.

Thats a statement, not a question!

its actually an opinion. if you hadn't noticed it says "i can't see" not he won't be

Still wasnt a question.

I know why he's come back, want to humour us with your wisdom why you think he's come back?

never said that it was a question or that i'd only posted questions, i said the post that ben quoted was a question. HTH

i'm sure you do know, after all you were the first to break the story... and knew that syndey had only signed him to play for newtown (still waiting to hear your response on how the conversation between fittler and tansey went, and why syndey would spend so much money for purely a 2nd team member)

as a guess i would say money, followed by missing family/friends

oh
and just to make it clear to you, the above is an opinion not a statement again

It's a shame he didn't stay for the two years, as that may have tempted some other Brits to give it a go.

Lets be honest though, he's been getting 'OK' reviews in a dreadful Roosters team, and if everyone was fit wouldn't be in the 17 - just as at Leeds. He's actually played more already for the Roosters than I would have expected him to do over the whole 2 years, so he's done well.

If Hull have signed him as a starter in any position then they're taking a bit of a gamble IMO.

bit unfair on him, he played 50+ games, can't say all of them was on the back on injuries

He played a lot of games because he could cover multiple positions. What position was he ever first choice in during his time at Leeds? I'm not having a go, I expect most teams would kill for a decent utility player. I'm just not sure he's that good in any one role.

BTW - utlity puts him in the same sort of bracket as one of my early Leeds heroes, Neil Hague, who I saw play every back role plus loose forward.

That's my thoughts, especially after being impressed by the recent online interview with JT, where he talked of the idyllic lifestyle, his determination to do well etc.

Sean Long and Richard Horne will be the halves next year then. Where does this put Tansey?

Full Back, BBC has him down has a LOL

Welcome to yesterday.

Did that make John Holmes utility as well in your opinion?

Neil Hague was primarily the right centre at Leeds taking over from Syd Hynes when he retired. Covering other positions didn't make him utility in the same way I would apply the term to Tansey.

Tansey has to find his best position and as yet he hasn't proved himself outstanding in any.

Agree with this 100%. I love the way everyone thinks he's going to be greatjust because he's played a few games in Australia. Certainly not good enough for Leeds IMHO.

Tony Ferrino, you seem to have forgot to reply to another post, so i've quote it to move it back to the front.

It's in Black and White what Tasney thought, you show me what Fitler thought in black and white.

surely a man like yourself, who's in the know, doesn't need black and white? not to mention that fact that i was asking for your great opinion, not asking for facts.
as for what tansey actually said, if you haven't realised yet. in sport one thing is said to the press, another thing happens/is meant most times. and as i've already said earlier, what makes him look better to the press & general fans. "i knew i was gonna get games, look at me, i have the skills, i played for the super league champions, why wouldn't i make it" or " i came out here for the experience, i didn't think their was much chance of me playing first grade"

p.s.
i don't need it in black and white, its common sense that a club wouldn't spend thousands of pounds on a player, just for him to play second team. then again have syndey paid him anything, or have leeds paid his plane tickets, rent, wages? a man like you would know, wouldn't you?

Full back as he is playing at the Roosters currently i'd imagine.

Gary bought his wife some lovely flowers and Jordan signed the card
