I've heard Murrell could soon be back in his way to rovers next year too. Get Clark and Mariano signed up and the squad is slowly but surely getting there. Mariano and Greenwood would be a good second row partnership too.

That post is a total load of uninformed BS. I find it incredulous that Hull fans have the audacity to defend Walker now he's legged it, after singing peadophile songs to him for the last 18 months.

If you look back at my post on The subject I actually stuck up for him, I've seen pupils life's and career ruined by simalar situations in my profession , he shouldn't have been named until the situation is resolved, even though he wasn't guilty this will still stick. Rovers should have stuck by him, I think all clubs would have, he has give very good service on the pitch and wants to play at the huge highest level and get paid the most he can (most of you would) so have every right to move and I don't agree with Hudge's or some Rovers fans opinions.

James Donaldson linked with an NRL move, two teams allegedly interested. Personally I think he's too small and lightweight, big big heart but not the frame for it though.

Would only reserve grade, although you can't blame him if he wants to live and play over there, it will be shame for you if he goes, as he would have been good for you in the championship.

Forgot about Greenwood, potential to be a very good player, I'd expect a few SL clubs to be interested.

Fwiw walkers done the dirty on you big time IMO , giving you at least another year would have been a good thank you for sticking by him

Your right I can't blame any player for leaving but I think Walker owed us like you say one season Minns had SL offers but he said Peacock did a lot to get him to Rovers and he felt he owed him some loyalty you find out a lot about your players when something like this happens

Re: Players next year : Wed Oct 12, 2016 7:38 pm  

think you can only judge a player leaving when you know his salary,

Hard to compare when you don't know the details involved, maybe Rovers asked Walker to talk a paycut, whilst not doing the same with others.

Who was after Minns, Leigh, seems a pointless move, it would be interesting if Wigan, Saints or any other established side made a move for him, Lunt or Blair.

If Walker moves to Saints, then next season he will be playing for a side challenging for trophies rather than fighting relegation.

Sticking by him, they didn't have a choice, had they sacked him, they would have had to pay him a whole load of compensation.

Hasn't stopped you deciding he owed nothing to Rovers.
