Biography
Robinson joined FAX from Batley, following the ex Batley Coach Karl Harrison. The hard hitting prop has made a name for himself for coming off the bench, and was looking to get back to full fitness after an injury hit 2011.

He joined Makali Aizue and Sean Hesketh as the impact props, coming off the bench and providing a platform for the Halifax Backs, but became an immediate hit in the second row and even at loose forward too in 2012. His hard tackling won over the Fax fans and he was rightly named "Star Man for 2012" at the Club Awards night

Adam

How big is the lad and how much does he weigh?

Is he the jinger lad, stocky chap.

Adam and his brother Craig (now at Doncaster) were stalwarts of our old Senior Academy/ A Team. Adam played centre in those days but has since moved into the front row via the second row.
Both lads were at Wakefield when an Aussie accent was more fashionable than a British one so never really got a chance. Craig I believe made one first team appearance and Adam none.
Adam is a good forward with reasonable turn of speed probably from his days at centre. How ironic if we had to pay a fee to get 'one of our own' back

Midget apparently

Also can Addy another one to the rumour mill, another back rower!!

Doubt it recently signed a deal with Bradford (1 year I think).
He plays Loose and can cover the halves too, good player and grew up supporting Wakefield I believe.

Out of contract at the end of this season. Also plays hooker if need be i think. Would be a better bet than Murrell would have been.

someone was telling me at the Salford game that Danny Kirmond was going to Wire with Westwood coming the other way....first id heard but whilst we're throwing rumours about....

Tim Smith to the Whino's ?

Strange thaqt because a salford fan posted on the Salford thread on the VT that Kirmond would be announced as a Salford player in August.

TBF Catnap that could be said about every SL player.

I've noticed that already the good doctor is suggesting he will walk away if he cant be sucessful...i wouldn't bet the mortgage that he will still be there by next season!!!

Mathers to Cas

You'd have to think that a few more performances like their last 2 or 3 and he will realise that he's on a hiding to nothing. Depends how long he is prepared to wait I guess. I think with his finances then they could build slowly and gradually produce a successful team, however his insistence that they will be challenging for playoffs and Challenge Cup next year seems to indicate that he is not the most patient of owners. Perhaps he should look at how long it has taken Simon Moran to transform Warrington into a consistent top 4 team.

A few Salford fans suggesting he is using the "I'll walk away if I can't be successful" as a threat to the RFL to allow him to spend above the Salary Cap.

Was told some time ago King Wally was coming back.

This is fourth hand but could relate to what you're saying.
Here goes.....Ex Salford employee Ed Farrish (?) was talking to a Salford specci last Saturday, and he told him that one of Salfords new signings for next season was playing in the forwards on Monday evening, assuming the Salford players aren't gonna be classed as new signings........He appeared to be aiming at a Wakey forward.

Hopefully Wilkes. Hope we don't loose Amor or Poore (Which I doubt will).
Danny Kirmond to Wire is another one I dont think will happen - hes still in contract with us til next year.
Tim Smith I dont think will leave for another SL club while hes still in contract with us.
We all know the Salford rumours alot of poo - believe it when you see it.

Could possibly be a load of piffle but just adding the Farrish rumour and Catnap's and getting a Kirmond.

Is this on their forums? If so can you please find a link as Im interested.

Not being funny or anything but the same guy who said Solioloa could be on his way I wouldent listen to another thing he says...

Soliola has just signed a new deal at the club and going from Saints to Salford with no disprespect at all to Salford is a BIG drop.

I also think it may have been taken out of context anyway -
When was the Forever Reds meeting that they are talking about? =#FF0000Monday 3rd June
Who played on Monday 3rd June? =#FF0000Huddersfield Vs St Helens
Is it not more likely that they were talking about one of the Saints players as there appear to be quite a lot of rumours about them signing Puletua?
