All the posters who regularly mention him presumably?

If only AP had acted on his beautifully drafted petition?

Don't follow the NRL closely but judging by reactyions on here he'll be fun to watch!

As an aside - Hull already seem to have a lot of overseas players to me and have signed a couple more. I can't keep track of the rules on it these days but you seem to have far more in the squad than I would expect the rules to allow, but maybe I'm completely wide of the mark.

Edit: Faraimo, Tuimavave, Kelly, Minichello, Manu, Paea, Naulago plus Ma'u and Fonua on the way?

Manu, Mini and Paea will leave at the end of this season. Naulago is exempt.

Minichello retiring
Manu - probably retiring
Naulago - British Passport

For completeness, there is also Andre Savelio, but given that Talanoa left us earlier this season, its like for like when it comes to quota spots.

By my reckoning

Faraimo
Tuimavave
Kelly
Paea
Ma'u
Fonua

Paea is OOC at the end of the season, not sure about Tuimavave. Kelly contracted but could be attracting attention from NRL?

Re: Manu Ma'u Signs : Tue Jul 09, 2019 6:52 pm  

Andre Savelio has played for England U18's so I doubt he takes up a quota spot.

Re: Manu Ma'u Signs : Tue Jul 09, 2019 6:53 pm  

Savelio is British, his family moved here before he could walk. He's played for England at junior level.

Re: Manu Ma'u Signs : Tue Jul 09, 2019 7:51 pm  

Clearly a massive signing far and away hulls best signing in the last 3/4 years.The guys a monster,powerful,quick for a big man averaging over 120 per game this year.Can we loan him till the end of the season.?

Re: Manu Ma'u Signs : Tue Jul 09, 2019 7:59 pm  

Would Ma’u be a marquee signing?
