Much as I respect Fitz for his fitness and workrate, I don't think Hull FC are getting the best out of him. For whatever reason the role he has played for all his time at the club is that of a prop grinding out the yards and blocking up the middle. One of my biggest problems with Agar is his insistance on playing a third prop at 13 but after reading that article I wonder who is now actually to blame for this.
When Westerman signed I thought, great, at last a ball handling loose forward. This should change the way the team plays, but so far there has been little change.
To improve the side, imo, Fitz should be played at prop and spelled, allowing Joe to play the full 80 at 13 and as the grounds start to firm up I think this is essential but I am concerned now that it would appear if Fitz wants to play 13, Fitz will play at 13

Explain why its an honour then, he's a great player I agree, but an honour?

Honour is defined in the dictionary in many ways.One being holding a person in esteem,respect.
Doesn`t always have to be someone who performs heroic acts,such as the examples you gave,which to me is a different kind of honour,but hey I don`t want to get into an argument over a simple statement I made.

Fair enough, just think terms like honour and legend are used way too often, no sense of perspective, Fitz plays for the money, like most professionals, its a job.

In terms of pure size of excitement and anticipation over a signing the Berro one was bigger than the Fitz one for me.

Why would anyone playing purely for the money put in 50 tackles a game? He goes significantly beyond the call of duty IMO and leads from the front and by example, quite literally. Did you miss all this when he signed? No offence, but the people referring to him as a legend here know a thing or two about the game. www.smh.com.au/articles/2009/08/ ... digitalxml
