Hesketh was probably our best forward in 2010..big, tough and hard to handle. Scored a few tries too.
Totally different story though last year in that he was overweight and lacking fitness throughout the whole season. There's rumour that it was due to a pre-season injury but not sure if there's any subtance behind that. As a result he failed to make any real impact, except perhaps in a couple of stints against 'lesser' (no disrespect to those intended) sides.
Mixed feelings amongst Batley fans really. Wouldnt have wanted to lose the Hesketh of 2010, but not fussed about this year's version.
You get him fit again though and it might be a pretty decent signing.
