If it is him then no, it reminds me of a player at Wakefield from many years ago who was obviously a star of the future but I can’t remember what he did but it was serious and that was it career ended. It was not the winger but a forward who just couldn’t control his temper.

The one who springs to mind is Lynton Morris??? and then there was Webster? There have been a lot through the years at all clubs, Gary Rose is the worst I remember. In this day and age, especially in SL it's rare with only Hardaker in this category.

One thing of note is I don't know how accurate that article is. Also, it clearly wasn't a random attack, they clearly knew each other so there must be history. All the same, it sounds bad. Finally, it's from 2011 and he was 20 years old which makes him 31 now which is knocking on a bit.

We shall see.

He`s a brilliant talent, I watched him play for Leeds reserves against Wigan a couple months back and he was hands down the best player on the pitch, not quite sure why he never got a chance in there first team.

Horrendous thing to do obviously no doubting that, but it was 11 years ago, he was a young lad, served his time and had his head down ever since, I agree don`t really think we need another winger but If WP thinks he`s worth a punt then I`d go with it.

Greg Johnson winger we took after Hudds sacked him, I think his court case was still going on when we signed him though.

Probably 'cause TJ's off, there's no news as to Kershaw's progress? And the Army bloke we signed doesn't actually exist.

Innocent until proven I suppose but Salford took him on after the guilty verdict!

The surname of the player I am thinking of begins with a C.
