Now Seymour's signed it must be the end?

Also confirms there'll be no Fitz or Lauaki next year.

Obst could get resident and get off the quota list meaning Fitz could stay.

Lauaki could be kept over Moa.

Or we could bring in someone else.

Nope !

Quota
Seymour
McKinnon
Heremaia
O meley

Non fed
Seymour
McKinnon
Heremaia
O meley
Moa

That's if obst comes off only got a quota space but not a non fed and these players are rare like obst who have been here before 2008 when he non fed rules where brought in. So that's on the basis that Seymour has signed meaning we can't keep Fitz or hame !

Yes we could, instead of Moa.

Technically yes, but that's on the presumption we wouldn't want to get rid of our second best prop who is at the early stages of his career and got his best years ahead of him yet.

That wasn't my point, I said this doesn't defiantly mean the end of Fitz and Lauaki.

Fair enough, I cant see either staying although as you say it's not impossible.

Seems like the end of Ling, Fitz and Lauaki. The only one that I'm sad to see go is Fitzgibbon. Moa must be retained, however.

Focus now must be to sign a backrower. Second priority is a Prop, Gleeson rumpled aside.

I'd we sign a decent backrower I'd be pleased with how our squad is looking for next year (despite McKinnon's injury record concerning me).

I wont lose any sleeep over not signing Hame. Fitz on the other hand.......

You don't rate Manu, Tickle or Westerman then?

I'll be sad to see all three go. Long is legend of the game and it's a shame his time with us was blighted by injuries.

Fitz has been awesome and his work ethic and professionalism is an example to every young player at the club aswell as his quality. Think he will retire and go into coaching where I think he will do very well.

Hame divides opinion but I like him and feel he could have done more fo us had we used him better. It's a shame he is leaving but Moa deserves the spot ahead of him no question.

Hame commands a big wage though, and certainly hasn't lived up to expectations.
I'll only be sad to see Fitz go, really feel honoured he choose to wear the black & white of Hull FC. So much so I'm taking my young twins to the Salford game just so they'll be able to say they saw him play when they're older.

Please, No

. Not unless Moa turns us down and probably not even then.

defo prop in the lima mould for me. hope these gleeson rumours are just rumour but if not we need a decent centre. Having watched the nl1 games I think we could do a lot worse than than pulling someone out of there.

Moa over Hame every time for me.

I rate all 3. However I don't want them all playing the full 80 every week, hance wanting a good backrower to have as an interchange.

i thought obst dosent count the quota whatever it is just like manu anyway if theres a chance that we can keep ogre,moa and fitz then it should be done

Why would we though, Moa has been great this season and Lauaki has been average, Moa for me everytime!!

i like hame, but for what ever reason he isnt popular with fans, albeit the lad has been a lot better than he has been given credit for

I'd have kept Longy for one more year,don't know much about Seymour,I'll judge him when I've seen him play a bit more,but even now when Longys on the pitch he is still a class act,would of benefitted Elliss as well been mentored by a great player.

I think longy should get lastys job

To be honest, I think Lauaki is abit thick, even for a rugby player. Take Lynch's try on Sunday for instance, Hame got sucked accross creating a huge gap in the centre of the field. It's little moments of stupidity and preventable errors that make him not good enough.

Yes, he carries the ball well and sucks in the opposition, but he's rubbish in defense and prone to lapses in concentration.

Marmite forward , some love him some hate him

Lauaki has had a raw deal in a way.The opposition were scared stiff of him when he first came here,but then he was obviously told to curb his aggression,and he has struggled a bit since.
