Kelly granted an early release. What a fine signing he was - at his best our greatest stand off in the Super League era. https://www.hullfc.com/blog/2020/10/29/fond-farewell-for-albert-kelly/

Sad we can't give him the send off he so richly deserves. Great player who produced moments of brilliance that will never be forgotten.

Would have liked him to have stayed but hey ho , Fantastic player for us . Good luck for the future .

Re: Goodbye Albert : Thu Oct 29, 2020 5:25 pm  

Fantastic player for us, truly capable of creating something from nothing.
A real shame he won't get a proper send off.
Nothing but best wishes for the future.

On his day he's probably the best individual entertaining halfback I've seen in Hull colours, without his injuries early in his career and some shall we say off the field stuff he could have gone on to be a great within the NRL.
That said I'm glad to have had the chance to see him in the flesh playing for us doling out punishment to the opposition with some mesmerising tries that very few in the sport could produce.
Good luck to him whatever that might be.

Great player Albo
What a sh-t season losing our two most exciting players in Albo and Ratu
Lets hope its not Albo to Connor

Toughest tackling halfback I've seen in my time

I always though Rich Horne tackled well above his weight, Fred ah Kuoi wasn't exactly light in the tackle either.

Loved watching him in the black and white.
Been watching since ‘78 and I’d put him in my all time team. Hardest hitting half back I’ve seen play for us.

Free as well

Good luck Alby
