Walkers been out for months but Webster seems to have been injured on and off for the same period. The guy seems to have the hamstrings etc of a mouse.
Not one to give a bountiful contract to for mine.

What would you give for a pre union Chev and a fully firing and fit Jake in the centres. Would be awesome.

Think jake is grt wen he is fully fit and he is a nice genuine guy to unfortunately wen he is on the pitch and gets tackled you do wonder if he will actually get back up. Honesltly wud i re-sign him if we can get bret finch then wud ave to say no there is just no quality half backs in our country to be able to re-sign Jake unless galea dont re-sign then can see jake staying at a reduced rate. I wud also offer walker a one year reduced contract benefit of the doubt........

Might be a good post but god I hate text language. No wat I meen.

Walker was a very overated centre at Leeds, he played in a good side, wa awful in his last season at centre and sure he was either dropped or moved into the pack.

Big loss in Webster, your only back that I worry about.

Agree. Walker's a back rower now and thats where he was playing the majority of his games before his injury.



Really? I agree the ability is all there and he could go wherever he wants in the game, but he's never been consistent enough (or fit enough for that matter). I rate him, but Kris Welham's been the better player since he's been here.

Please speak queens english, for the sake of us old uns.

Avast, ye landlubber Capn' Jake Webster is a serious loss (eaten by The Kracken) for ye olde Port of Hull (East Flotilla).

Capn' pmh concurs that a new deal should be offered but at less booty n plunder than current deal pays.

When Webster is fully fit and on his game,not many people can handle him,but he does seem to pick up more injuries than Evel Knievel.

Come on, Webster would pull a calf muscle kick-starting the thing.

I believe Rovers had made Hall an offer, so have Hull.

Not counting you Paul but I bet our offer is 10 times what FC are offering according to the ones in the know.

I REALLY hope you get him.

Done and dusted....

Hall and Welham in the centres.

I nearly feel sorry for Rovers fans.

Right either the HDM dont know what they are talking or I have got the quota rukes wrong. www.sporthull.co.uk/headlines/Hu ... ticle.html Players non Fed trained Dobson Galea Newton Webster Clinton Can apply or have exemption. Fisher Vella Altoght Newton and Galea can come off the Quota (which is a waste of time now), they would still count as 5 non Fed trained players right? You can only get exemption if you signed before September 2007? Even if tehy can you would have to hope that the didnt take advantage of this as they would have 10 overseas players in the squad next season. Not good for the game if it happens.

The limit on overseas players needs to be self regulated.
I don't agree with exemtions and would like to see it drop further in the next few years.

I believe your offer is higher but Carig would like to stay put...?

I feel exactly the same - except there is the very real probability that the HDM dont know what they are talking about [uand[/u I have got the quota rules wrong.

I agree. I see no reason why clubs should vote these rules in and then spend the rest of the time trying to find ways around them. Having said that I suppose any club worth its salt will pursue every opportunity available to improve it's squad.

Someone did post the explanation of the rules on here last week, but I cant find it, it must be written somewhere offcial.

It wouldnt suprise me if the RFL didnt really know the rules either.

Rovers youth is the best it has been for years, so should be looking at ways to reduce their overseas players.

Having 10 players in your squad and you would imagine that if all fully fit would all be in the 17 would be terrible.

I agree with the clubs voting, but think it was a legal challenge by a player that started all this exemtion buisness (which Hull also use at the moment).

I would guess this is HM making a story out of nothing.

I would hope that the RFL take the ammount of overseas player into consideration (official or unofficial) when choosing the next franchises.

If he is turning down more money and the opportunity to play regularly in his best position, I'd think it slightly foolish. Unless Hull are offering a longer deal, [imaybe[/i. If neither KuH club regard him as a starting centre, he should look at options outside the city IMO.

He'd be a gamble for Rovers, but all signings are. For him, his opportunity looks, from the outside, to have passed at Hull - I can't understand why he'd want to stay. But then, I'm not at all well informed.
