Well thats my thoughts, cant see Hodgson playing 6, I actually think Brown could go well at 6 with Carney at 7.

So you guys could be going into next season without an established off-half, fair enough I suppose if your club dont see it as a problem.

prince would be my preference but after that orford or marshall because of their contract status.

Can't you and your Giants friend take your chat about his team somewhere else?

Orford wouldn't be my first choice either. Just with him been out of contrct end of next year.

The thing that annoys me was that his guy had chance to come to Hull, but didnt, and now he wants to because he hasnt lived up to all the hype he got when he went to Aus!

Why are we giving him another chance?

Good job its a 1Yr deal!

Speaking as a neutral I cannot say I rate Thorman.Not done much last couple of seasons.

I swear i just wet myself with laughter

because lifes to short?

Don't think were ever going to get first choice for anyone. Orford would be an excellent signing, from that list though I think Fein, Head & Kimmorley are more likely. Knowing hull they'll sign an ageing Kimmorly on a 5 year deal

If we're feeling that forgiving, we should have got Paul Cooke - he's got a decent kicking game

IMHO - Thorman has a better kicking game than Horne.

Where did I suggest it'd solve all his problems? Even if we only get 4 or 5 more games out of him next year he is worth keeping on as we've looked an immeasurably better side with him on the field.

kimmorleys on fire for the sharks, hes also going to canterbury on a 2 year deal.
i dont think head will come back and fein may sign for a sl team this off season.

Wouldn't sign none of them at all tbh Kimmorley like you said he's an old git, Head been there a no no. and Fien don't rate him as a 7.

He has a more [icomplete[/i kicking game, certainly.

Damn straight

From what i'm hearing Webster has been released.

having not read it i couldn't possibly comment!

Its tough to explain becuase people will take it out of context, but so were Micheal De Vere and Chris Mckenna when they came over, im not directly comparing Crocker to these two by the way just the way that these were two players who people were disappointed with becuase they were expected to be something that there not, I can aprriciate the impact Crocker will have on the culture of the club and the attitude of the players on the field, and he does thave a real qaulity about him aswell but he wont have a massive impact in changing the attacking fortunes of one of the worst attacking teams in the league, players who could have the potential to do this would be in higher demand.

I wouldn't sign them either I just think there more likely

Can't be bothered to read through 13 pages, but here's my thoughts.

If he has been signed as a squad player, then it is not a bad signing and he will provide decent cover. However, if he has been signed as a starter, then it is e, simple as really.

Feel sorry for webbo 1 game and in those circumstances never stood a chance to fully impress,having said that Thorman is a damn good signing and if at the expense of webbo its understandable .

You obviously have some-one in mind as you sound an expert - please name who you would bring in instead of Crocker.

We were the worst attacking team because we never had our halfs on the pitch so yes you are right if next season we play the full season without any halves crocker will not make a difference.

BUT

Hopefully next season we will have a more settled side and naturally the attacking options will get better.

I do not expect Crocker to come in and single handedly turn this team around but you cannot deny the guy is one of the most respected and feared players in the NRL and has the the ability to inspire players around him. Michael Crocker is one of the biggest signings this club has made and the only current aussie international since Sterling so to dismiss the scale of the signing is totally foolish.

Good signing, well done Agar, like the 1 yr as it keeps the options open for 2010.
