As for Jason Walton, he never appears to have stayed at any club for any time. Wonder why?
Was at Batley for four years. Seemed a good fit as a upper echelon Championship Club Second rower. He seemed a decent fit as a wider squad player at a bottom end SL club.
We will never know whether he decided he didn't like living away from his mum and dad, could get a few extra quid somewhere else, or whether he thought I can do better than a long-shot at a return to SL.
Never really sure why clubs release players so readily as we signed him when the market was in our favour, and we released him when all the better players in our sights were signed up. I know we wouldn't want an uncommitted player, but still. Maybe I'm still smarting from Fa'afili and Faumuina.
