A player who I hoped we would sign after seeing him last season and bits and pieces this season. Always makes good metres and seems to be good on his feet for a forward. Very good signing IMO.

Good post, and I'd also add that in the last decade players like Shayne McMenemy, Sam Moa, Colin Best, Danny Brough, Richard Whiting to name just a few arrived with little fanfare or from lower league clubs and ended up being fan favourites.

To echo what others have said, not every player can be a superstar.
All the good teams are greater than the sum of their parts.

Yeah - Washbrook ended up as the top tackler in SL this season, the shirker.

As for Jake the Peg - thrilled as I am to have achieved notoriety on the Hull FC board, you appear to have me mixed up with someone else; I'm not and never have been a mod.

On the subject of PJ - you'll get good value from him; he's an honest, hardworking forward with a massive engine - he doesn't break the line and has no offload, but he'll put his hand up and run it in hard as and when required. Came to us when very few would and last season, looked good in a crap team. I hope it works out for him.

From the 8 games I've actually seen him play, I'd say we've replaced like for like with Aspinwall, but he's 6 years younger!

Decent signings as a 4th prop, always going to me near impossible to replace Moa.

But we have 3 excellent props for next year and 3 young props with lots of potential battling for the 4th prop position, also puts is in a good position when the season after next we could be losing two of our main props to retirement.

I think we replaced Moa when we signed Watts.

Johnson is in for O'Carroll.

My apologies. There is a wakey mod who knows little about the game and acts like a total kok. I've mixed you up with him but it's an easy mistake to make

Really pleased with this signing, very good young prop with a good offload and footwork. Smart work from Gentle.

Stand corrected, you know where I was coming from though.

thats the pack sorted. now for some creativity please.

It is now, it wasn't when he posted the link!

Weheyy, whos the idiot now!! i ll get me coat

Jeez that's rich coming from you and your endless Agar trolling - my irony meter is off the scale.

I like the thought of having an irony meter. Put it on the wall somewhere, probably next to the huge portrait of myself hanging in the hallway. I'll take the idea to the den andsee what they say.

The problem is, the irony meter itself would have to be hooked up to some sort of irony detector. I shall include all rights to my irony detector when pitching to the dragons.

How would the irony detector work, I hear you all ask? Well, it would detect any irony at a 20 meter radius from where the irony detector is located.

The irony meter will simply show & record the level of irony being detected.

In the future, I will develop mobile irony detectors and meters for those who live life in the fast lane.

are you being ironic

If only we had some way of detecting.

Can I have one made of plastic?

My point was, they've both ended up at shiite teams and obscurity. Washbrook showed his class with that awesome bit of play towards the end of your last game. He did that a lot.

Surprised you can read it with it stuck up your ass

Wakey fans trying to make us some sort of rivals again. It's brilliant!

Ever since leeds and cas realised how irrelevant they are
