Fonua is already in the "legend" bracket of Hull players. It would be nothing short of criminal if we let him join another SL team. There isn't a current player in our squad I rate as highly.

Why "move on" from signing great players? I don't see the logic?

Been a while.

Would love to have Fonua back, him and Faraimo on the wings with Carlos and Connor/Griffin in the Centres would be ace. But I can't see it I'm afraid. Our back is already pretty strong and will be stronger next year anyway.

Cas seems a good fit, but would hate to see him against us and succeeding at another club. Much like seeing Watts at Cas, and when Tom Briscoe left for them.

You rate Fonua higher than Kelly, Sneyd, Taylor, Carlos, Houghton and Connor in their positions? He was a brilliant player for us, up there with our best, but I'm not sure about that statement.

Yes I do. He was a player that I held my breath every time he got the ball. A real X factor player with genuine physicality too.
