Wow, the guy is an utter disgrace and an embarrasing to watch. He looked like a pub team player waddling his fat ar5e around the pitch.
Surely you must have a youth team player who could fill in for a 5th of his repoted wage.

He was better in the second half charging towards that burger van

Direct your question to the guy who picks him (and Tadulala).

We all know he is a joke and should be nowhere near the first team in his current state.

The only person who can't see this is Kear.

Please see other thred, not the hickey one the barby one, we're burning him as we speak.

Fat you say?

Crikey - now that you've mentioned it, I've had another look and noticed that he is indeed carrying a little bit of excess timber.

Thanks for pointing it out - we hadn't noticed.

i see what humour method your using there!

We've already vented our frustration towards Kear for picking him. To be fair to JH, he'll be a decent signing when he gets conditioned and match fit. Unfortunately that won't be this season, it'll take an off season.

we do we have 3 in johnson, gledhill and spiers, just the person who picks em prefers big sized auzzies

Maybe Kear and NGBC are the same person?

I think JK is one of those who will not be told by anyone who and when to pick them. It smacks to me of "It was my idea and I will pick him until I can say "I told you he was a good signing".

It beggars belief!

JK's very stubborn and won't listen to fans opinions, he believes that if you listen to those in the stand you'll soon be stood with them.

What gets me is the time he has been here we should be seeing some improvement fitness and conditioning wise - especially as given the state he arrived in he should be doing extra training.

And you think he'll put the work in? The current evidence suggests that Mr Hickey and no Rugby + comfort eating & drinking. I have it from a mate of his in Oz that he likes his grub and we can see the outcome. I support Kear generally but I have to say he has me mystified on this one

All Aussies especially ex NRL players are amazing, awesome, and superhuman.

At least our crowds will look bigger if Hickey came and stood with us.

Time to cut our losses and put him on a fitness programme.
Sometimes, even when something has cost a lot of brass, its better to admit defeat and start again.

Hickey probably knows his own fitness issues more than anyone else, but if you are selected you are going to play. The issue here is why is Kear selecting players who are not ready to play SL level when there are others in the squad who are.

I agree. Hickey can't turn round to the coaching staff and say don't pick me, it is up to the coaching staff to realise that he is currently not in good enough condition to play Super League.

Talking to a Wakey fan after yesterday's game and he seemed to suggest that Hickey is earning a salary of 70k and is one of your top three earners!

Can this honestly be true?

Wouldn't listened to hear say, but he did turn down a contract to play with South Sydney to join Trinity, so he's probably on enough to make it worth his while.

if thats true then its a disgrace the guy is in awfull shape and going by what ive seen and listend to hes plays so very few minutes and goes hiding in games. at leaste the likes od solomona and feka give you something special and some good impact but this guy is rubbish

Solo was a bit disinterested too by the end of his stint with Wakey. I remember him throwing the ball at BJ's head once. I think he threw the ball into the crowd a few times too in an ill-fated Salford away game.

The portly Darren Fritz, JT and some obscure Samoan always gave 110% at Trin! Lima, O'Brien and Hickey not so much.

Have you ever been to a game, Fritz wasn't portly - if anything tall and rangy - I'm begining to think you are a Hudds wind up.
