do people think Long will even be there?

What an horrible way for a legend of the game to end his career. All the best Fitzy it's been a pleasure to watch you in the black & white shirt.

Doubt it.

Honour to have seen him in the Black + white . Great competitor and shame for it to finish like this

Dont know what prize draw he's on about but from twitter -





@mrwaynegWayne Gardiner - You'd have thought Fitz would have liked his final ever match shirt. If so, he'll have to enter Hull's prize draw tomorrow.

getting raffled off.

Honoured to have watched the man play for FC, always gave 100% and was a true leader.



Good luck in whatever you do next Fitzy!

Hope we get the chance to show our appreciation on Friday as with Richard Swain.



Fitz is a real professional and it's been a pleasure seeing him play for Hull FC.

As others have said, a privilege to see a player of his stature in the B&W irregular hoops, and the polar opposite of an Aussie coming here just for his pension. All the best Fitz.

Personally I think he will. If anything, if he is not there it will ot do his reputation any good and he openly admits to his immaturity of the past being exactly that, in the past.



There are a few on here who have slagged of Long, which staggers me. In many ways he is similar to Fitzgibbon in that he ihas been forced to retire through injury, Whether he should have been signed for 2 years or at all is largely irrelevant, he was signed and he did a good job when he played. Dislocated elbow, broken hand, dislocated shoulder. Theses are not fatigue injuries.



Long will get my applause at the end of the game tomorrow, along with Fitzgibbon.



Btw, there was a recent thread about hard players. Craig Fitzgibbon needs now mentioning on that thread. A "run through a brick wall" type player. FFS he actually walked off the pitch at Castleford with a broken ankle

Legend gets slung around way to often nowadays but Legend suits Fitz, everything about him is professional on and off the pitch.

To have seen him play in a Black & White and actually meet the man in the flesh has been an absolute honour and is definatley something to tell the grand kids about when they ask me who my favourite Hull Fc players were.

Its just a shame its ended hows its ended with the injury...

I just hope the younger guys have took a leaf out of his book and seen what you can achieve if you put the hard work in.

Super Fitz, its been a pleasure and I wish you and your family well in whatever you do, good luck mate and thank you for been here.

Agreed, long will also get my applause.
