I heard the same, we seem to have had an interest in Westerman for a while. Can't say I have been impressed with him this year and in the away game at hull he looked lazy in defence and missed a load of tackles, guess the whole Hull team were the same that night though. Can see why he would want to move though, other than the money there's not much of an attraction at Hull, maybe a move to a better club with better structures and coaching would bring out the best in him. I always thought he might be the wrong type of individual for Leeds though ?

Beau Falloon was the Titans player of the year in 2014 after having a great year. Obviously 2015 has been a disrupted season, missing most of it through suspension (due to the drugs trial) and then a couple of minor injuries. The reason they're letting him go is because they've trying to clear salary cap space to rebuild after putting all their eggs in the Cherry-Evans basket that went wrong an they've got young Kieran Mossely (who is seen as a star of the future), plus a couple of other experienced back-up hookers in Nathan Friend and Matt Srama.

They're certainly not letting him go because he ain't good enough. Granted, he's not a superstar, but neither was Paul Aiton and look at the impact he has had on how we played this year. Falloon is a better all round player than Aiton. If we sign Falloon, I'll be having a punt on him for MoS next year.

Cheers super ted. Hope you are right. All I know is 4 mins on YouTube where looks to have good pace which will help our attack. Just love his name. If he is as good or better than Aiton it will be great news because we really miss him. You need a tackling hooker. Burrow is a great player but trying to hide a hooker for most of the game in defence is a real drawback and one big reason some of the other forwards like Ablett, jp etc have got worn down.

Beau Falloon seems to be the likely replacement for Aiton and maybe we may have got a very good player due to his unfortunate circumstances down under

I would have liked Josh Hodgson as my 9 for next season above all othe 9's mentioned but he looks destined for a great NRL career

Any news on buttriss?

Falloon was cack this year. The Titans aren't trying to make space on the cap - they've got oodles of space because DCE isn't joining them. They have been a poor side for a number of years, and once Searle left the club to let it's been run by people who know what they're doing. They've looked at the squad and realised there are far too many garbage players and a very bad culture amongst the squad. Hence the clearout.

Falloon would probably do a good job in SL, but TBH he's the sort of overseas player that shouldn't be getting a gig in SL.
