If he is coming as a utility cover to replace rankin then should be OK but if he is one of these highly paid star outside backs then I have to say I'm completely underwhelmed. 13 first grade games

Think his preferred position has always been stand-off.
Could potentially end up next to Sneyd when Leon hangs up his boots.

Another awful signing.

Can't even get in a wooden spoon chasing Knights side.

Lets hope can do a decent job but would preferred a out and out centre

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 6:59 am  

according to Radford he will put pressure on the centre spot.

We should have signed a specialist centre... -IMO

Good luck & Welcome Carlos....

Would have rather have kept Rankin

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 7:02 am  

Here's a idea,why don't we see him play before the slagging off starts.

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 7:03 am  

Initial thoughts are disappointment, a bit happier that he has been signed ads centre, but in an area we are desperate to sign quality it's a big gamble to sign player who hasn't played first grade rugby in that position.

Gambles do pay off sometimes, but not a impressive signing as we were promised. I hope he proves to be a top signing though .

Welcome to Hull.

Maybe Hull would, but if wants to leave what can we do?

Can't hang around waiting for him to make his decision, the need is greater anyway for someone who can play centre than FB.
