| With Nero on his way is Chev worth a punt? played his last game for Hull KR and i believe we have shown some interest..
If he has recovered from the shocking injury he could be a useful addition to our back line.

| Showed real promise as youngster at Leeds, seemed to lose interest due to / becuase of his trip to the other code. As you say if he's fully recovered definately worth a punt IMO

| Conducted himself admirably after his sojourn enjoying Her Majesty's hospitality,and was excellent for Leeds before losing his way to the Dark Side. Terrible injury. IF (IF IF IF) he can regain something like that form at Leeds, I'd welcome him. But we've not had the success with Reardon that I expected (although maybe thats not all down to him) and we've not exactly had a lot of success with returnees from the Dark Side anyway, so...at best its a hung jury. I like the guy though - seemed to set a very good example after losing his way (with Thug Bailey) a few years ago. And I'd not read too much into HKR letting him go - he's not Australian, after all.

| He's the sort of player I would expect lower half of the table teams to be after. Which is unfortunate, before going to yawnion & dreadful injuries he was a player who surprisingly showed up well at international level. A younger Paul Johnson.

| Ive long admired Chev as a rugby player, and latley as a person. If hes fully recovered and available then yes, however, I belive I can remember something Morgan said about not rushing him back till next season.

| Before he left Leeds his form wasn't the best, and he doesn't really seem to have set the world on fire at HKR. I'd see him as a bulkier version of Paul Sykes at centre (especially on poor handling and defensive positioning) who cannot kick goals or play stand-off. He might have been worth a punt about 4 years ago but given the state of the Bradford backline you would be better served to invest in a steady experienced NRL centre (like Evans at Cas perhaps), especially now that Nero is leaving.

| Never rated him at all.
He doesn't have the agility to be a top class centre in my opinion, and he's an even worse passer of the ball than Paul Sykes.

| TBH I don't see Walker improving the side really. As Exeter says he's always had a bit of a defensive weakness.

Evans played centre for us before Nero. He only went to Cas because of the overseas rules, which were then changed by the rfl after his release and signing by Cas had been arranged. I wish he'd never left to be honest, he's not a world beater but he's better than Nero, by some way, for my money.

| I wouldn't sign him - we've not been too lucky with the "injured for the season" ones we've signed recently.
Sculthorpe, Reardon, Kearney
Although Brett's great when he plays he has missed his fair share of games.

Was bad luck having to let Evans go, thought he was 1 of if not the most consistent performer for us during his stint at the club & seems to be scoring a few for Cas. He would have been very welcome in our current threequarter situation.
