Kershaw is alright but is a weird signing for Rovers, he'll do a job but Martin and Barron will both become better players.

He is a good back up
At 25 he is too young for us and wouldnt fit in as he has speed

martin isn't particularly quick. He's made breaks a few times and been caught.

Does never go back apply to Abdul too? I imagine Satae is a non starter, Catalan announced this morning 8 players who are leaving, Satae wasn't one of them

I doubt abdul had much choice. rovers and catalans not interested and most of the other teams in SL have better half back options. Too much of a risk. Slightly derisked if we are counting him as marquee but will still cost a hefty sum per game he plays

Martin definitely has another gear in him. Seen him in the reserves and he's rapid.

Never said he was. It was in reply to Kershaw has speed. If Martin isn't quick what does that make Kershaw who he left for dead

Surprised he hasn't used it when he's been in the clear then

I mean he dusted Kershaw when we beat them back in Match

If we had signed him certain posters would be on here moaning that we've signed someone from another bottom two club who's only played 74 games in five Super League Seasons with a pretty average try scoring ratio.
