Is the diminutive Jamie Shaul, the best ever Hull born full back.

Richard Horne for me.

OK he played most games at 6 but IMO he was a FB should have played FB for Hull.... we should have kept Brough and signed a 6 from the NRL. Then Cooke could have carried on playing at 13, earned a GB call up and we would have beaten the aussies. But this didn't happen (not that I ever think about it)... so Shaul is the best FB

Richard Gay was a very good fullback.

George Robinson, all the way for me. His last line of defence was to go to ground with his arris in the air imitating a bike rack and when the attacking player stopped to see what the Hell he was doing, he tripped them up.

Before my time but my dad always says Arthur Keegan, I thought he was from Hull but I just checked and he was born in Dewsbury. Tough choice for me then between Jamie Shaul and Richard Gay. I think by the time he retires it will be Jamie Shaul.

Anyone remember “cough mixture”

I used to think George Robinson was in The Ramones because of his hair style.

Mally Owbridge was a good un just could not shift the best in the late Arthur Keegan.
Mick Kendle was not bad but he was a Beverley lad.

Yay “cough mixture” Mally Owbridge, emigrated to Australia years ago, but was back in Hull recently.
