But the most relevant point surely is the role of Mags in Parcells performance - he needs someone of that quality to be able to perform to this standard, as 2017 showed. That's great for HKR for the rest of this season, but I'll be interested to see how he gels with Mags replacement, whoever that may be. If it doesn't work out I suspect they'll see the Parcell we've seen this year and last - largely disinterested and ineffectual.

From what I can glean, Parcell spits his dummy a bit if he doesn't get what he wants, and he frankly isn't all that as a hooker. Good player yes, but there's a reason he's not in the NRL.
I was watching Mags last night and he really was pushing them around the park and taking good options more often than not. He's just a class all-round sportsman.
KR are one of 5 clubs in the drop zone currently, if we can't get over London at least I'll take relegation on the chin. Parcell aside: if London with an average gate of 1,500 or whatever, no marquees and Ward as relatively new coach can beat Leeds over 29 rounds then fair play.

Don't talk daft

Walker has had a couple of shockers this year (the first Wigan game comes to mind).
In an ideal world, he comes into a solid and high quality side which can support him better while he learns.
Big fan of his as a player, has some x-factor which is rare in this side.

Go on then, make your case for Walker.

Simple mine. Error prone, offers nothing in attack with the play constantly breaking down when he gets the ball. Poor when called upon to be last line of defence. Name a fb he is currently better than in SL. Harsh but so true.

I too think Parcell is top quality and only kept out by an exceptional hooker in Dwyer for and I have said it for last 2 seasons I would have had Parcell in at half instead of Myler and would have given Dwyer Hooking shirt.
Like it of not Myler has been a consistent weak link ever since he joined

dwyers a headless chicken though. spoils a lot of attacks. parcell by plenty

He’s no more error prone than a lot of fullbacks, full back is a postion where errors are more pronounced

Saying he offers nothing in attack is ridiculous hes the second highest of our team for tackle busts for a start

He imo is currently better than

Shaul
Hampshire
Macintosh
Evalds

And a few others




And he is still only 19

I can understand all the reasons why you got rid of Parcell, a lot of it makes sense, the baffling thing is why you let him come to us? We have been a hooker short of being a half decent side all year and if I was the Leeds hierarchy I'd have not help strengthen us at any cost

Maybe your the only team that wanted him and could offer us a replacement in return, we’ll wait and see but Lunt could be a better fit for us at this moment in time

Ive also heard rumours Parcell was one of the players who was a disruptive element in the squad, how true that is I don’t know

mate, i know you had a good win last night, and your feeling giddy, but don't be saying daft stuff like that.

Think this is about right.

I think they were more keen to get rid, than what they got in return. That element was just an opportunity that arose as a result. Parcell was much better for us than Dwyer, and a far better player, but that doesn't change the fact that for the club he had to go, and from a business persepctive going forward they had to take the opportunity to do that. Hull KR will still be down there, whether he was there or not.

Fair comment
