I was hoping for an experienced outside back so this signing is a little puzzling but we'll have to see who else joins us.

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.

Presume he's not one of these 2 superstar outside backs we've been promised by pearson though

Another awful signing.

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

Pritchard and Taylor aren't awful signings.

Could Dobson , Paea , Moa or Blake Green really break through to 1st team regulars in the nrl sheldon ? Doesn't mean anything tbh !!!
I'd imagine Roopy has seen a fair bit if him and can give us his opinion , hopefully it's z great signing for the club and he settles in quickly !!

Welcome Carlos #coyh

I get this feeling that we're going to miss out on Inu now. He'd would be the perfect centre for us. Great step, powerful and knows how to put his winger away with ease.
We're seriously going to lack pace next season though unless Lancaster starts which I can't see happening though.

Re: Carlos Tuimavave Signs : Sat Jul 25, 2015 8:02 am  

Hopefully will be a good signing for the club, he's a young talent & can cover a few positions, not many fans wanted rankin & he turned out ok, this kid comes with a better pedigree so we can judge him when we've seen him with our famous jersey on. Welcome aboard Carlos.
