David Faiumu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 10:23 am  
Over the years there have been some great players who have worn the Claret and Gold but in my opinion one of the best has been David Faiumu.He has constantly given 100% both on and off the field and will be sorely missed.Not only a great player but a gentleman of the greatest game in the world.I believe all the Giants supporters will join with me in wishing David all the very best and hope that in whatever he decides to do he will remember the town of Huddersfield and supporters of the Giants and take with him the very best wishes and thanks of us all.

If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

A top bloke and he represented us well. A unique player as well with that step of his. He will be missed.

DON'T DIE WITH THE MUSIC IN YOU

Re: David Faimu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 11:05 am  
Totally committed player who has always given no less than 100% - a true professional who will be missed for sure. Wish we had more like him with his attitude and application.

As for what I will remember most - what else but that wicked swerve and side step. When viewing it from end on it is awesome - goodness knows how he ever gets tackled - he often makes opposition players look pretty poor as they grasp for thin air - and he must also have been in the top off-loaders since at the club.

All the best Fooey - you will not be forgotten - and thanks for the memories.

the Claret And Gold Machine is ready to roll

sunday September 1st 2013, when a dream became a reality!!

Re: David Faimu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 12:13 pm  
in my eyes, one of the best players we have had in a generation, certainly one of the best imports we've brought over.
a cracking player, very rarely had bad games and on his day was unplayable.
we certainly will miss him next year!

good luck fooey and thanks for the last 6 years and everything you've done for the claret and gold.

THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE

Re: David Faimu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 12:35 pm  
Totally gutted for him lastnight how it ended for him, im more upset about him leaving than us losing lastnight as a team we deserve nothing this season but he deserves better!

one of the best players i have seen in a giants shirt and we will be worse off without players like him.

faiumu never to be forgotten and all the best for the future :thumb: :CLAP: :CLAP:

Quite simply the best side step I have ever seen, of either code, on a rugby pitch.

Re: David Faimu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 2:47 pm  
Gutted he's leaving us....he's been immense for us for many years, not one of our major stars as the media would portray but certainly one of the top 5 players of recent times for me....that sidestep though.....an absolute joy to watch on his day, every team has been undone by him at some point in his Giants career and he will be a major, major loss for us next year.

Thank You for the best years of your Career Fooey.....you will always be remembered as a Fartown great for years to come, good luck fella !!

A very good player, l liked him, probably our best import over the last decade, hooker, loose, second row, prop, an honest player and gave good service, will be missed.

Fantastic player, very sorry to see him leave.

I will always remember his massive side-step, especially in the 2009 Challenge Cup Final. A real game-changer of a player who will be hard to replace.

All the best for the future David and thank you for your fantastic service.

Run leroy , run !.... And he did - twice - and we partied hard...

Re: David Faimu : Sat Sep 27, 2014 4:31 pm  
Great player - great servant.

The side step will be missed.

Think besides his commitment , his amazing ability to play so many different positions will be missed.

Imo our best import....proven over time.
