Great signing. Hope this is not a sweetener for the fans for an announcement that we have signed cooke.

Why would you think that? How many times does James Rule have to come out in public and say he will never have cooke back for it to sink in?

Hull FC wont have spent a penny. The money will have been raised from all the local pubs who have chipped in to buy him so their takings will now sky rocket.

Great signing, chuffed to bits with it! Realy glad the for the club to sign aplayer with bags of potential and not be another 'one that got away' scenario we are all used to.

Ptoper 13, which we have been desperate for, was pulling my hair out every week when Radders was playing there, which IMO was a real waste. Up there with the 'big' clubs for having a 13 pivot now, a la Sinfield/O'Loughlin/Flannery.

Brilliant stuff, now just for a back up half and I'm more then happy about our 2011 team.

Thank God we've got some news at last, it had been sooo dead this close season!
Well done Hull FC on a great signing, very pleased.
Welcome to the FC Joe!

Wheres all this talk of him playing 6 come from hes played there twice for Cas in 100 games.

He's signed as a 13 hopefully play him as one and stop fooking about changing players postiions

Anyways, will free up Radders to play 6 now

A wise move and probably for the best.

Yup, thats what i thought too. I'm generally an unlucky type of bloke around predictions and sport so what i will say is that it's likely FC will have their best season on record as i wont be getting my season pass!!

Yeh I thought that straight away! Sack who let him go.....Oh we probably already have done!

Kaths still here

Besides, will have cost more than 150k to develop him and knowing our past payments to players have been higher than they should be , id say we've saved a bomb
