to be announced tomorrow apparently on a pay per play or week by week whatever they're called contract.

Long signed two year deal with Hull.... its on the official Hull website

Good, rather we keep Briers then him.

I'm not saying the Brian Carney rumour is'nt true but why would we need another Winger and especially him, Hicks is obviously very good and Riley is improving with every game, we have a couple of other options if one of those picked up an injury and the younger lads in the reserves are doing fine. So were pretty sound in that position and also Carney is 33 next month and is surely a shadow of his former self.

It would certainly seem a backwards step, Carney would have been fantastic in the past, can't imagine his game would be that great after dropping out of rl for so long. We have got decent strength/potential in these areas so lets focus elsewhere and get players that could be at wire for the next 5 years IMO

People are awatre that Munster, Carney's team are pretty damn good.

In Smith we Trust.....if Sir Tony says Carney it is, then Carney it is..

We already have a right winger thats just signed a new one year deal in Chris Hicks so why would we want Brian Carney another right winger, he`ll be 33 in July, maybe the club are showing interest in the oirish man because they want the car park re-tarmacing on the cheap...

Todd Carney maybe, but not Brian. With Riley, Hicks, King and Penny we are fine in the wing position. This signing baffles me, but people more 'in the know' than me are practically confirming it, so there's a fair chance its true.

at no point did i say english.

Does he ever play though?

Whats happning with richie myler because i read somthing on here a while back saying we have signed him for next year for 200k on a three year deal and now im hearing that we havent ?

would carney be available for cup semi against that lot...would love it if he scored the match winning try against them

20 appearances in 2 years.....

including One Friendly for Munster and a few dubai 7s appearances this season alone....!!!

in no way would we be a bleedin Laughing stock if we signed this injury prone eejit...

I'd have rather had Sean Long

Carney would add a bit more beef to the side. Currently Matt King comes in off the wing looking for work and helping out the forwards. Riley doesn't do this (probably told not to) as he may lose the ball in collision due to his size. Carney was one of the best in Superleague atr returning the ball. It will only be pay as you play so we have nothing to lose. People weren't overly excited about the Hicks signing.

Carney and King would be quite an imposing combo. Very physical, to be sure, mate.

i am starting to think it might be a okay signing the wealth of experince he has can only be good for the youngster to learn from if its on a pay as play deal we really having to lose

when will his signing be announced?

17th March.

Boxing Day.

12th of never..
