not for a couple of weeks he aint

I see the club have amended the website after getting it wrong yesterday

What sort of supporter are you?.The kid has just signed,he will be playing in a new team and a different enviroment with the whole of his career ahead of him and you are slagging him off even before he has put a shirt on for us.You are not even giving JW a chance.Anyway seems like your in a minority so give your head a bang and get your brain into gear before the hole you dig gets any bigger.Some people just cannot help themselve's.Be ready to eat loads of humble pie.

Dunno mate, i was checking the web the other day to see how old he was, i thoight he was a couple of years older tbh seen as he's been around for what seems a few years

Very eloquent

I think the Yeaman not passing is overdone at times, but not unfounded. There are definitely times when the better option is to pass and he goes himself. However, there are plenty of times when the winger is highy likely to be bundled into touch so he quite rightly takes the tackle himself further infield yet is still slated.

You're giving him way too much credit for thinking there. For me, he just takes the wrong option. You are right though, in that it's overstated on here.

I said he often gets it right, I never said he knew so.

Ah, fair do's

Few points, I think we're over egging him as a ball player. He is a specialized lock but I've not seen him send many good balls out to his wingers, or put many people through gaps. Also, any of the reported fees are a lot of money in RL terms, but it's better to take a risk rather than not bother. At his age he could develop into just the kind of player we need, and if he does, even 175k would be cheap.



As for discipline, I think it's fantastic if it's true we tried to offload Tansey as part of the deal. I think it's b0llocks that Fitz and O'Meley have put Tansey in his place, or he wouldn't have been in trouble 3 times already. Also, having Tansey here would give Westerman a poor example to follow. Westerman could turn himself around at Hull with the huge expectation we'll put on him, but to think our pro players are in anyway more influential than Cas's pro players is disrespectful and probably inaccurate.



Time will tell as to whether the signing is a success, but the gamble is definitely worth the risk. It also gives Agar an opportunity to put big forwards in the 13 and 6 positions!

i think your wrong with that statement as most of the cas players dont really give a toss..aslong as they get a game....whereas hull players seem to have a bit more influence...not much mind.

















and to the previous posters regarding my opinion of westerman...i stand by my opinion...he`s poor...and if he does prove himself then fair do`s but cant see it myself

Rule bangs on about "we aint afraid to spend2



Just look at what happened with Tansey, we bought problems there!

Know the full Cas squad real well then I'm assuming?



Got this bookmarked anyway, it surely must be a keeper!

I don't think he's the ball playing 13 people are talking about tbh. His game is more as a wide running second rower. I would probably leave Fitz at 13 and use Lauaki as a prop.



Tansey

Sharp

Berrigan

Yeaman

Briscoe



Horne

Long



O'Meley

Houghton

Radford

Tickle

Westerman

Fitzgibbon



Manu

Moa

Lauaki

Washbrook (Spell with Houghton/ cover a lot of positions if needed)



If we don't sign anyone else (although I think we will) then that looks a decent line up to me.

I would disagree, we have been needing a confident 13 for ages, who knows how to play the postiton. Think he will play 13, with Fitz in the props. Must remember Fitz will play the same game he has been, the number on his shirt won't change his game. Would have Whiting over Washy on the bench too, better cover IMO.

presumably the point in signing Westerman is to improve our attack. IMO he is wasted playing anywhere but 13

Agree 110%

My thoughts exactly.

Fitz talking about the competition for the 13 shirt on Hull's website and mentioning him as a 6 as well.



Also talks about his own fitness not being up to scratch last season. Always thought he was a bit of a slacker.

have seen most of em out on the regularly and know ppl that know a fair few players too





as for bookmarking this.....i dont give a toss...i`m not sad enough to be bothered about been wrong if he turns into superjoe it no big deal he`s just a human being just like the rest of us.





i`ll cheer the team on come what may

As I say, bookmarked!

my apologies i must bow down to the greatness of all those that think this is a great signing..............like fck i do.......ive given my opinion and thats that, if you dont agree with it then i couldnt care less
