Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"I don't mean to imply that all East Hullers are riff raff ---- only those whose bias leads them to boo one side and applaude only one side.
I know about the Hull KR association with PNG. But there has also been a French connection: French men prop Olivier Pramil and goal kicking centre Damien Couturier played a role in getting Hull KR promoted to Super League a few years ago, when Justin Morgan had just arrived as coach from Toulouse. And Kevin Larroyer is coming on loan from Catalans in 2014. That is why I think that the crowd could have been a bit more fair in their responses to on field events.'"
Pramil played 1 game for Rovers in 2005
The promotion season was 2006.
So you are incorrect.
Couturier was very much a bit part player and didn't make the team in any of the play off games or the Grand Final against Widnes in which promotion was achieved.
And perhaps you forgot that Seb Martins played a few games during that 2006 campaign.
However Rovers fans simply love Stanley Gene and 3 PNG signings for 2014 outweigh the signing of Larroyer.
PNG have based themselves in Hull for the World Cup and Agar is an ex Hull FC coach.
Hardly a surprise the PNG boys got the Home support.
