Everyone seems to agree Minichiello played well. That was however for the Titans. Will he do it for FC next year though? Both Hull clubs have had a few false dawns with ageing Aussie players.

And both clubs have had successes.

Think pretty much everyone agrees there's a certain amount of risk involved. But then there always is with overseas signings, regardless of age. One positive indicator though is that opposing fans feel the need to start raising doubts. :)

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?

He might break his leg in the first friendly and never play again.

Lets get him over and see how it pans out.

Suggesting that a player might suddenly become poor after you've signed them is an argument for never signing anyone.

My requirements for new players are pretty simple. Are they good enough? Are they already crocked? Are they problem players e.g. with a history of laziness, violent crime or addiction? Minichedders seems like a good addition to me. Considering that Willie Mason is still playing it's not like terrible signings weren't available.

I can't hear the name "Simon Finnigan" without my head going "he's got whiskers on his chinnigan"!

Although I see he's retired now, so I should be safe!

I thought it was Michael Finnegan?

Although Simon did lead to the same response

Great signing , very happy indeed a regular starting player in the nrl is surely a good thing but I'll wait for roopy's opinion first :wink:

When I heard we had signed Mini the other day I also heard from the same guy that we are still getting another second rower and Ben Crooks is POSSiBLY parramatta bound

I'm getting good at this rumour business after 2 years , 1st to name mini and now crooks to the eels :WHISTLE:
