| Quote ="Winslade's Offload"I don't normally criticise our players, but I do have to raise the problem of Chris Hill. Time and time again he carries the ball much too quickly into the opposition line, twists, to free the ball, and finds no supporting runner. Hardly surprising though is it ? He needs to be far more composed and slow his runs down, it's no use outrunning his team mates like that. I did have great hopes for the lad when he first joined us but now I am starting to have second thoughts.'"
A poor Sally Cinnamon impression.

Think it was 93-94. Probably Brian Johnson's poorest signing (along with Mateaki Mafi).

| Anyone remember Teitzel's supposed nickname? i'm sure he gave it to himself it was that cheesey!
Also on Mafi, wasn't he signed in the Dorahy/Murphy era along with Salesi Finau???

| If memory serves Craig Teitzel had just had a bad injury before we signed him, neck injury I think, and we pretty much coaxed him out of retirement. The state the club was in at the time, if you were upright you were in.
As we are some way of piste here, I think Chis Hill is showing signs of coming good again if his Hull performance was anything to go by. Difficult as it must be to match last years impact, I am sure he will be fine and his form will return as we reach the business end of the season

| Veering back off topic again (since I have nothing to contribute other to the Chris Hill debate, other than if Cooper is NRL material then Hill is Kangaroo material) I still have horrible flashbacks to the Finau/Mafi/George Mann period.
Mafi was a classic example of how being fast in itself doesn't make you a winger. When we signed him apparently he was an Olympic Standard Sprinter. All I can say is we put him in rugby boots and he instantly turned into a Olympic Standard Donkey. With one leg. And a limp.
Finau bore an uncanny resemblance to Mr Potato Head, and that was about it really.
George Mann had amazing eyeballs. Anyone ever seen that bit in Total Recall when Arnies on Mars and his helmet crash and his eyeballs bulge in their sockets? That was George that was.

And yet we were still able to finish level on points with Wigan and Bradford at the top.
Teitzel went on to play another season in Australia after he left us, at N Queensland Cowboys.

It Was Les Boyd who recommended him to the club...its probably why Teitzel gets so much stick, because people were expecting a les boyd and that type of player doesnt come around very often do they....

Wasn't he known as the 'Butcher'?

correct, because he was in fact, a butcher.
i thought dave king got unfairly treated here, copped a lot of stick for being not very good, especially since we were playing him out of position at prop, when he was a big built second row who had done pretty well at huddersfield, which is why we signed him, he got a run in the back row towards the end of the centenary season and did pretty well, before we released him and he went back to huddersfield, and ended up playing as a centre.

| I cannot believe the comparison with the no marks of yesteryear who were not good enough to lace Chris Hill's boots.
He is still a work in progress and will not be at his peak for a few years yet but he already approaching world class

Mafi and finau were possibly johnno's last signings just before xmas 05, he picked them up following the Centenary World Cup, which one of them, can't remember which, didn't play a game.
Just think, we had mike ford playing for us that season as well. mind blowing that.

| Surely some massive "wooshes" going on here.
Pretty sure the original OP was trying to be sally cinnamon and if so certainly has a bulging keep net.
Chris Hill has been fantastic again this year and I don't believe anyone could be anything other than appreciative of him.

It's a fair cop. I would say he is our best forward by some distance this year. I still can not get my head around how someone can come into the side and play like he has over the past two years. He has eclipsed Morley and Carvell. Have a look at SL Stats to see his figures. He has to be a shoe-in for the England side in the Autumn.

I've got to agree Chaz, the guy has never taken a backward step, let alone look out off place from day 1.
Treat yourself to an extra bag of Werthers this weekend and enjoy your RL

| Sam Tomkins is head and shoulders above anyone else in SL this season. Probably nailed on to win it again at this stage.
