i take it your joking?

Really?
I would say if we dont land either Miller or Prince it will be very frustrating missing out on all 3 and to go into next season with Seymour as our only recognised 7!

FFS, in the written media. Is it difficult to not take things literal on here?

'Highly likely' to choose Hull here.

Also, Gentle's back now? Some on here said he hadn't even gone yet!

and then wouldnt it be a hoot if Seymore went on to have a blinder next season and then tell FC to shove it for ferkin him about

#intheknow indeed

This is what I was saying. The FC press officer mentioned the rumours but McRae didn't confirm or deny them.

he'll have a blinder of a game then spend 4 weeks nursing his crocked knee so not too bothered

well he didnt do too much of that this year and played jabbed up for most of the season so not really a bad guy after all and clearly not here to steal the dough as many said!!!
i think we aint seen the last of Seymore in the KC for us

So Prince is mulling over whether to come or not and we potentially have Miller as a back up (according to HDM), and with Rangi's deal with St George falling through we might need to get the London Lawyers on stand by again......

Nothing simple in solving this numer 7 spot it would seem

TBH it just seems to me Prince wants to go anywhere but Hull Fc. Hope im wrong but a well paid three year contract offer from fc or stay with a club what dont want you and wont be activating the extra year hmm. Unless he is trying to get another nrl club but the amount he would ask for and his age will probably put off potential nrl clubs imo.

Its hard to say whether hes using us or not, one things for sure coming to the other side of the world is a big decision for him and his family and its only right that he should take his time and make sure that whatever decision he makes is the right one for them all, afterall we don`t want another Mckinnon on our hands, i`m sure that AP & PG know the score and will infrom us when the time is right.

I imagine the decision would be easier were Hull to be located in a better area, London is probably an easier sell than East Yorkshire

I would love him to come and play for us and I think if he came here he could turn us into a top four team and a good crack at the Challenge cup to boot.
I appreciate it is a big move and I just hope he comes but not holding my breath. Maybe Pearson could shed some light on the matter tonight.

Based on what?

Why mention the rumours at all?

No-one had heard of them before he did. They may have been mentioned on an internet message board but not reported by the mainstream media.

Surely it would have been easier not to refer to them at all.

Not if you are a professional RL player. Leeds or Manchester maybe, but not London.

Do you honestly think that those in the game don't know what's going on around and about players and their availability even if it's not mentioned in the press ? Hull will likely have been alerted to Prince by his agent some time ago (before the press knew) who would equally likely have alerted lots of other clubs on both sides of the world as well. By the time the press get it discussions will already have been held between many parties. The idea that keeping it from the press (even though we didn't tell the press) could in some way mean we could operate 'undercover' is a bit naive IMO.

Based on the fact the club tried to conclude discussions over the weekend and don;t seem like they have been able to?

He was mentioned in the mail before the fc website.

Perhaps the players who go back to aussie dont give a glowing report (why would they),and all the adverse publicity about the club over the last few seasons has opened the r/l worlds eyes.!!
