He's had a succession of smaller injuries over the past four years.

He's not a player I rate in Super League and I believe his gangly build will always lead to injuries in this competition.

He would be a another Mick Nanyn, Jon Grayshon or Dwayne Barker; someone that no-one else wants but will come down and fight for a place.

IMO, he is a class apart from them.

For me, Whiting is an unsung hero of SL. He is consistent, committed and largely unnoticed. I think Hull fans would agree that he makes a real difference when he plays without being obvious.

Would be a great signing for you, his biggest problem is finding a position, for me he would be best at LF, but also fits in well at 6, centre and now even FB.

Reads the game very well, creative and fantasic defence.

As others have said he lacks pace but makes up for it with his brain.

According to FevRover (who I believe is a close frind of Richs) he is about to sign a new contract with Hull though.

As mentioned before, can be skilful but is too slow, certainly too slow to play in the centres any more.

Not what i had in mind as a powerful and pacey three-quarter about as exciting as a rugby union double header at Twickers.
