Quote: rhinoms "In all honesty i'd be very surprised because from what i hear he hates Leeds.'"


Let me tell you and put you straight here, that is a load of b0ll0[ick[/is made up by silly Cas fans, just like the Hull fans about their players.

No player in the game hates a club sufficiently to stop them playing for them. You only have to look at Andy Lynch for that, a Leeds fan who went to Cas, and then ended up at Bulls who as a fan diskliked very much.

Westerman would have signed the other year when it was rumoured, had Leeds made a proper move, but it was all just rumour.

Not that I believe Westerman is signing this time as the OP said, but lets put the crappy hate thing aside.

Made up by fans?
They linked an interview with him the other year where he clearly states himself that he doesn't like leeds!
I don't care if he does or doesn't but it's more than rumour mate.

I've just thought about seeing Sinny in someones elses jersey for the 1st time and I actually died a little bit inside.

Good job it'll never happen icon_wink.gif

I can name you one and it came from the horses mouth this player told me he'd a fantastic offer from Leeds and if it had been from any other top club he'd have signed.
The player in question Karl Firbank

To quote Stuart Duffy commentating on the 1993 CC game against Northern at HQ, 'What an absolute idiot that man is!'.

He is a very good young British player, but I feel he has not lived up to his hype from few seasons back, I have also heard that he hates Leeds and don't think he would be a good signing for us.

Did you read anything that Gotcha posted or just choose to ignore it?

Quote: AdmiralHanson "That has the worry of the Lee Crooks signing ....

Buying someone who was the best player available in his position, but who couldn't stand the sight of blue & amber and who wanted to go back to his beloved Humberside within seconds of getting to Leeds.

It it is true that Westerman is coming, he's going to have to swallow a bitter pill to come play for Leeds or has his quest for honours in the game got the better of him ? In other words, stay at the club he loves and win nowt or have to stand having to play for the team he hates, but with the best chance in Yorkshire of winning stuff on a regular basis.'"


Yup. icon_thumb.gif

Quote: Richie "he's a wide running, right side, back rower.
He's very good at that, but as most sides attack to their left the RHS second row has to do a lot of defending, and despite (or because of) Westerman's high tackle counts, I'm not sure he's up to that if he isn't the featured attacker getting protection in defence.'"


That's strange, Westerman seems to be doing 25-30 tackles a game now, certainly not a weak defender
