Didn't he get voted the best winger in Aus that season aswell?

Everyone laughed when we signed Mathers, i think TS knows what he's doing, i'm happy.

Yeah Dally M winger of the year in 2006. Quite an achievement because last year the accolade went to Colin Best.

Yeah did really well at Newcastle.

What about Peter Fox at Hull KR, good player, but think Tony Smith got rid of him at Leeds but not sure

Why would you want to sign a 33 year old Carney, when you already have Hicks, King and Riley (plus Penny out on loan).

Unless Hicks injury is far worse than being broadcast.

That thought had crossed my mind.

Bloody hope not.

This signing has been coming before Hicks got injured.

That thought also crossed my mind. Long term because Hicks and Riley are both on contract for next year it tends to suggest the exit of Penny and possibly Johnson.

The same reason Hull FC want a 33 year old Long when they already have Thomas Lee, Richard Horne, Danny Washbrook, Chris Thorman, Richard Whiting and Shaun Berrigan probably.

When is this signed due to be announced, if indeed it is true? Is it a Thursday Guardian job?

Just about to say the same thing.

If this Carney signing is indeed the one that Tache mentioned then it was way before Hicks picked up his injury, the Carney signing is puzzling me somewhat, he's 33, has his fair share of injury's and we have move than enough people to play on the wing.

I hope you know what your doing Tony

Hull haven't had a good SH since Tony Smith.

Warrington have got good wingers.

Doing alright so far!

I would think that this will be either a signing until the end of the season, or on a mtch by match basis. We sold a centre, sacked a fullback/winger, and signed a fullback, so we have 1 space available in the backs. Carney will fill it until the end of the season. It gives us more cover, and if it doesn't work, then we haven't really lost a lot.

We didn't replace Gleeson and Penny out on loan that's 2 places in the backs up for replacements using my maths !
I would say Carney is an excellent signing strong and fast and if Tony Smith wants him who are we mere mortals to argue with it !

Carney would be a great signing, think of all those Green irish hats we can sell like they have on Paddy's day

Impressive stats indeed:

"Carney made 21 appearances for Munster in his first two seasons and won four Ireland caps but only played in one friendly this season."

Why are peeps getting their panties in a knot? We have let three backs leave the squad, brought in one, to date and have now added another.

Merely rederessing the balance of the squad.

Guinness usually give out those Bodhrans as well. Hopefully the club don't start selling these, as there's enough drums in the southstand already.

C'mon WOTT, who ?

It's Danny Brough.

no it is not.

Well if this player has played in the CC Final, he played at Weekend, he must be able to play 6 or 7 and obviously he doesn't belong to Saints.

That leaves.

Danny Brough, Paul Cooke and Robbie Paul.

you need some new sources or some real inside knowledge,it is none of these and the criteria you are trying to match up with is completely irrelevant.

I know nothing about this player and i don't pretend to, i'm just matching up players with the criteria that WOTT has provided.

Does anybody else that works at the club use this site btw
