| 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.

| I'm happy with the Scruton signing, plenty of experience and I think he'll go well in the championship. It'll be interesting to see who Sheens has been chatting with over in Australia. I'm not really sure whether the Scott Prince rumours are just a mickey take to be honest.

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.

| I'll wait till I see him play before I cast judgement, but on paper Scruton looks good.
We really need to hang on to Greenwood if possible. Lots of interest from elsewhere for him though, so we'll just have to wait and see. Apparently a few more retentions to be announced very soon.

| 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Quite possibly but does the compassion & help given to him by the club, supporters and fellow players mean nothing? Rovers could have easily released the guy on the back of some very serious sexual assault charges, How many clubs would have picked him up before he was acquitted. add whether you think he'd be in a position to get the same deal he's probably got on the back of some solid performances at the back end of the season?
It's my opinion that Yes Adam Walker owes Hull KR some loyalty.

Well, as Minns son lives over in Salford a move to Leigh would have made a lot of sense if he were offered it. He gave an interview to YP after the MPG and said he commuted 200 miles a day.

Chortle.
I'm old school and will have been to most already although Oldham were still at Boundary Park back in 2006. Even Toulouse isn't a new trip for me.

Absolutely not. He's witless, injury prone and unfit. Apart from that....he's got a glass jaw...manages a massive 2-3 hit ups a game in his huge 10 minute contribution each game and other pros appear to find him a bit if a joke. If you want to repeat recent mistakes then he's your man.
He's exactly the kind of signing we should avoid like the plague. That and loan players in key positions..half backs full back hooker.
Hudgell has said he wants no loan signings from the Sharks.
We should be building a team for promotion that needs little tinkering to keep it from being relegated the following year.

Of course they had a choice to be honest Dave you haven't a clue what's gone on behind the scenes but keep putting out statements as if you do

He has given everything on the pitch, he is out of contract, if the rest of your players but the same about of effort then you wouldn't be relegated.
Deserved to choose who he plays for and just because Rovers did what any club would have done, doesn't he should stay with them.

We could have suspended him (on full pay) until it was resolved, but to release him we'd have had to pay out the rest of his contract.
Once the charges were dismissed, he was entitled to go about his business like anybody else. If the club helped him out, he owes them thanks.
I'm not massively impressed with him, but based on my knowledge of the situation, I think it's best if everybody just moves on.
What I am impressed with is Lunt-Blair-Minns-Scruton. That is a really good start in building a squad to do what we want to do.

You know very little about employment law if you think otherwise.
They couldn't sack him, they could have suspended him on full pay, but choose not too, I wonder why?

Players get released all the time. They release him and pay up his contract. DOH!!! It's completely different to having a normal job with no contract.
