I'm gutted Hull have signed another player who is injured. Do they have any brains at that club? They have underachiedved for the last two years in no small part due to a massive injury list (at least that's wht they like to tell everybody all the time) - so the answer - sign a worn out prop who is about to have a knee reconstruction. The word "Doh" doesn't even come close.
Why, oh why would anyone at Leeds be anything other than massively amused by this?

Knee reconstruction? Where have you heard that from? He's going for arthroscopic surgery on his knee, thats all we know.

Anyway, Mark O'Meley is a fantasic player. His impact in Hull remains to be seen and he has injuries elsewere that are a cause for concern, but he looks to be a good signing and was been chased by numerous Super League clubs apparently.

Your Chief Executive was talking about it on the TV. I assume he knows what's happening? You would hope so.

Not nessesarily. Have you seen the way our club is run?. Anyway, that type of surgery is often exploritory. Saying that, even it is a reconstruction, he is subject to a full medical prior to signing.

He will miss the last three months of the season - that doesn't sound too "exploratory" to me. And let's be honest, I wouldn't trust the Hull medical staff to change a nappy let alone assess the fitness of a new signing.

Yes we have, and that is why we find the cod-heads signing of shrek a bit of a gamble,hope you can afford to carry another injured player!

Fantastic player who has really lifted the Roosters to the heights of the game despite having only one functional leg and alledgedly on the raz 7 days a week.

Yes another top quality signing by the useless, making up the numbers, chav intergrated slum on the edge of Yorkshire.

His best days were at the Bulldogs and since he's moved to the Roosters he hasn't been the same player (the same as Willie Mason).
I think the Roosters will be happy to be getting rid as he hasn't always made the team when fit this year anyway and he'll be on big money. Glad we haven't signed him anyway. Think Fitzbibbon will be a good signing although i'm not sure how long they'll get out of him, Crocker would've been better.

O'Mealy is average, Hull will probably be paying him a fortune, I much prefer they way we seem to be looking at recruiting TBH, quality young kids with stacks of potential are far better signings than over the hill NRL players who not only cant get into the first grade team they are also injured.
