Has anybody watched ellis this season,after a long term injury he came back for the last half dozen matches and might as well not bothered,and out of ellis and manu,ellis looks washed out not manu.!

You might well be right. Come next season we all will know one way or the other. You might also by the start of next season said something positive about Hull, on the other hand maybe not.

I will be in a minority but if you have signed mcdonnell you have got a good signing.! Good hands and dangerous coming into the line.

talk us through your recruitment, please, I could do with a laugh.

in fact, make it a farce and talk about your retention and salary cap too.

envious troll, nothing more.

I thought this was a rumour thread on hull fc,so why ask a question about rovers,you ought to know better.!

He's 31 not 41.

The simple way to look at it is Ellis is a player that salary cap aside would walk into any team in super league
he's been injury free for most of his time at tigers and has picked up 1 injury.

He's over the injury now and looking forward to playing in a strong fc team next year

You continue to find negatives with one of the best players in the world whilst we continue to look forward to our team getting stronger whilst yours continues to fall to pieces

Are you always this angry because someone has an opinion that dosen't agree with you.? In answer to your question,we have made 5 signings,quietly and efficiently,no fuss,now about your signings,when do you sign taylor,paea,finch,marshall,lyon,chase,galloway,locke,crabtree,kite need i go on.
Why dont you read one of your posters bigarr's post on page 89 of this thread The last part of it says "its no wonder that I have seen dozens of posts all over the forums and facebook taking the P1$$ out of us signing every tom,dick and harry" His words not mine.
Ever thought of taking the black and white blinkers off and come back to the real world.!

Anal skywalker likes to remove posts on the dobbins for no big reason tho so I think we could give alexwest a time out for being a troll of the highest order
