Where are the people in the "know" when you need them, Im sure they'll pop up about the same time as it gets announced!

where does it say [uEnglish[/u based NRL Second Rower??

Heighington isn't what we need. We need a line breaker not a grafter

Ellis: 189cm, 107Kg
Heighington: 187cm 102Kg

You could be right.

Let the sock fest commence.

I'm sure Radders does it on purpose. So he can read the "in the know" on here.

Radders might even get an idea of what to offer the player.

Minichello I heard

Anybody guessing Sonny Bill or Willie Mason yet?

Crocker

what is the point in the story, just announce it when it's a done deal...?

Best guess so far. One of my favourite players, still good for a couple of seasons I reckon.

I'll have that... What if it doesn't "Come off" We are left with egg on our face again.

on the same level as Ellis though?? I wouldn't say so

i can`t imagine Radford would have commented if the deal wasn`t done, its just probably agreed that tomorrow is when it will be announced, hoping for some quality but who knows

Pritchard to link up with his former Canterbury team mate .

would be nice Steve but its not going to happen, just heard Radford on Humberside saying that the player in question was close to playing for NSW at state of origin, either Minichello or Heighington it is i reckon

so he was [inearly[/i good enough for a top 4 side... brilliant.

Will await the announcement, but not holding my breath overnight.

Both NSW city players , I wouldn't be disappointed with either mate , Hope we get a wrecking ball of a prop though .

I don't understand, are you saying that only players who play SOO are good enough for top 4 teams?

But like you we will until tomorrow before getting excited.

I reckon it's already a done deal. Can't imagine they would get people's hopes up like this if there was no contract signed.

I just think it's an odd thing to say, for sure say it once you announce who it is (or leave it for the press to come out with it)

How many SOO players are playing for Leeds, Saints, Wigan or Warrington?

I have no idea, other team squads mean nothing to me.

4 in total. Warrington have half of them and they're not even in the top 4 at the moment, just shows you it's not everything.

This is a prime example of why your criticisms of Hull are bordering on delusional. You hold the club to standards that are simply unrealistic (arguably even unattainable). Without applying context to how Hull are performing you're just peddling meaningless waffle.

I think you'd be a lot better off if you just closed yourself off entirely to current RL in this country and got yourself a stack of DVDs of the 1980s games and watched 1 every Sunday at 3pm.

I agree, reckon it's done though, maybe just don't want to announce it the same day as Hadley.

Just building a bit of excitement with the fans though, I won't get too excited as been let down before.

So I am not allowed an opinion, I just find it a bit pointless to say "we're signing someone who almost played SOO but we're not telling you until tomorrow"

Hull are performing as expected, poorly, I sincerely hope that changes next season, I think it will.
