I'm probably an outdated fuddy-duddy from the 1980's, but I like my wingers to be wingers. Shaw is one of mine and my son's favourite Rovers Players, as you rightly say he's the only person on the books who can go full length. His kicking is top class too. I don't know why wingers are judged on ball carrying from our own line or their ability to tackle 19 stone props, it's not their job?
I'm sure the lads over the River don't mind Mark Snooze missing the odd tackle or two, he more than makes up for it in other areas.

As for Vai-Vai, it's a shame because he was one of our favourite players too but has for some reason lost all confidence this season and, looking at it commercially, he was constituting poor value for money in terms of a quota spot. Good luck to him in France though.

Says in Leeds statement Lunt is in good shape and fit to play Sunday? Thought he was injured or was that a lie to wrap him up in Cotten wool until this deal goes through

Confirmed - Lunt gone and Parcell in.

My worry though - Parcell is ON LOAN till the end of the season.
1. Is there a restriction if him playing against Leeds?
2. Could Leeds screw us over and recall him?

Confirmed that Lunt is on loan as well. So its a double edged sword if they do try either of the above.

From Parcells point of view it makes sense to come on loan at first and then sign a deal when we know we’ll be safe

Symphony Or Damn, Sananda Francesco Maitreya. Good record that.
Possibly prefer Azora, the Daughter of Montezuma, but that's just personal preference.
Good thread this, like the way it's going, I've missed The Big Daft White Bear.

Dont think you will get too many complaints from Hull fans, you deserved the win, better team on the day and should have won by more, We were poor, thought Masoe, Garbutt and Parcel were excellent.
