Me to, 2.80 for a cup of tea, bad day that

Mariano signed a two year contract extension only last year, so I would expect a transfer fee of some sort if this is true.

Agar may not want him

Probably not, after all he's just taking up a squad place that could be better used on a Hooker, but still, he's under contract so either the benefit of getting him off the wage bill supersedes the need to get some cash or one would expect compensation.

Only played 8 games this year, not all missed because of injury either. Obviously not one of Agars blue-eyed boys.

Wouldn't suprise me if Mariano left should be in every week but we mess him about with dumb decisions ! Mcgoldrick cannot be true hes a joke I wouldnt pay him in coal if I did it would be a waste of coal !

Not a good trainer

How have we messed him about? not at all I think is the answer.

Posters on Hull forum saying that McGoldrick has signed for them 'till the end of the season...presumably hoping to earn an extension thereafter ??

Not arf.....one of the worst that one was.

This is unquestionably one of the strangest movements in SL.
Hull a big club (that's what they tell us!!!) signing McGoldrick, a player many are trying not to sign!!!
Really very strange indeed!!!

you fetch a smile to my face every now and then

Me too

. Bad enough we took the error prone Mathers from Cas without taking a penalty machine like that.

Sounds like the guy was doing a bit of loan sharking on the side. www.dailystar.co.uk/rugby/view/2 ... eep-going/

Confirmed signed for hull, the relief!

More money than sense.

"A fool and his money ..............."

I can live with the thoughts that we missed out on Ryan

I really do fear the the game in this country. A club like Hull take on a clearly overweight and unfit 31 yr old journeyman aussie and throw him straight into the team at full back against Leeds. Surely they should be giving a chance to some of their young kids because your not telling me there isn't any in that city who would die to pull on the Black and White.
Not having a dig at McGoldrick whom I believe is a really decent bloke but its not doing our game any favours.
Tonight's game was appalling to watch and reffed by what can only be termed as a schoolboy. That's 3 dreadful games from this country this week on Sky and one belter with the S of O.
Our game over here is in need of major surgery and quick.

true in every word you said there,

I've been following junior rugby league now for the last 5 yrs and it looks dire and doesn't look like it will improve neither

Last nights game was poor certainly but there have still been some good games this year. I just think the televised games have been poor. I bet Wigan-v-Bradford last week was belter, along with the HKR and Saints, but we were stuck with Salford and Warrington. The weather was a lot to do with a lot last night. The players never looked that surefooted. Certainly Hull looked very sluggish. Compare to the excitement of the Magic weekend, when there were some really good games in dry conditions.

I have to say though that this year has excited me less than any previous year.

The standard of SL has been falling, in my opinion, for at least 15 years and I really don't see anything on the horizon to halt the slide unfortunately.

The game need a reboost the pro clubs and amature clubs need toget in schools, and get kids playing..

Well said that man
