Second row probably, had performed well in the position at club level and had his finest game in a GB shirt as a substitute in the role at the McAlpine V the Kiwis.
At the time Walker claimed it wasn't down to money and Leeds had made him a perfectly acceptable offer to continue his career at Headingley. It'd be interesting to know how much influence David Howes had on Walker's move to Bath. At least Walker didn't die wondering but with the benefit of hindsight I wonder if he'd make the same decisions again?

Must have been the same source who told him that Talau was nailed on for joining Leeds.
You would think he'd learn.

maybe a rephrase is needed. With age I wonder if he would have had the potential to be a world beater. Would he have stood the test of time etc etc

I agree, I think he will do very well for himself at the Bulls.

Did anyone understand why he thought applauding the Leeds fans was a daft move after his injury last season? Has he got some stick for that from his own fans I wonder.'"
I think he meant that it was daft given the situation he was in at the time ie in excruciating pain and his lower leg at right angles to his body! I wish him all the best at the Bulls.

icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

| Fingers crossed he has a healthy and successful time with the Bulls - he deserves nothing less.

| There was a lad a work banging on about this a couple of days ago - I usually don't listen to him but he was on the money with this one.
...anyway I hope he can regain some form after such a massive injury, especially when he's approaching the twilight of his career.

I agree that it's a risk taken by the bulls after his injury and so long without playing but he's only 27?

It's the mileage though. Not many players who start 1st team rugby at 16 last past 27/28 at top level. I wish him well, but the odds are against him I think.

| I wonder what AdeyBull has to say about this. Apparently Chev is ok but Bailey is a thug but we're yet to hear why.

You bring up an interesting point. I hope Adey doesn't dismiss it as trolling because it's valid. After all, in said incident, Chev received a harsher sentence than Bailey.
