| He will be a very good signing in my opinion. Really pleased to have him back.
The past is gone, he served his time and he is a quality player and will be a cracking asset to us moving forward.

I agree. I don't think any other club treats their supporters so fairly with open and honest communication.
It is something we should be very proud of.

Wasn't it Walker (playing for Salford?) that yanked on Bill Tupou's leg after the tackle was complete and put Bill out of action for quite some time?

| If we’ve resigned Adam walker (the one that left Salford)
Then that’s a great signing
Played really well for us when he was here
Very useful player too
He’s some one that’s got serious time time to make up in the game you can’t help but feel he will really fulfill his potential with us
Great news

Errmm...didn't Saints make public the fact that Luke Thompson had refused to take a pay cut, hence his quick departure to Australia and didn't Salford make public that Evalds had turned down a new contract and is off to Cas ??
I'm sure there's plenty more examples out there.

| Adam Walker is a quality player with a troubled past, wow what’s new!
RL players by there nature are inclined to get in trouble, not all but some and most notably props.
One thing is absolutely certain, Walker is yet to reach his peak and if well managed he may well do so at Trinity. These are the players who drive clubs forward.
As for being like, seriously. No team wants disharmony but they don’t have to be mates, that’s a total myth. I’ve worked for many outfits in my time and there has never been any correlation between how matey we were and how successful we were, quite the opposite in some cases.
You have a choice, watch a team of best mates play RL for pleasure or watch a team of pro’s win stuff. I seriously doubt you can have both.
Just look at the Wigan team of the early 90’s, do they socialise together? Som may but most not. Work is work and friends are friends and they are rarely the same thing.

| The problem is that our first attempt to manage him did not go too well or last too long and Wakefield as a club has relied on team spirit, Wigan didn’t need this because of the quality of the squad they had assembled.

Course there is, but they don't give him a chance to have a whinge at the CEO.

Utter myth. Trinity as a team is now packed with quality. Most notably the best winger of his generation, one of the best Centred in SL and some quality forwards. We don’t need more team spirit we need more desire and toughness.
You seem to have a tragic desire to pidgin hole is a a team of desperate tries as indeed we once were. Those days are gone and if anything we have been under performing.
I really don’t care if one player doesn’t care for another, it’s not a playgroup it’s a place of work.
I’d like to see some trophies before I die and if signing Hannibal Lectre achieved that then so be it. Nice rarely means winner in pro sport.

Agree Vasty.
The classic example - though its footie - is Andy Cole & Teddy Sheringham - didn't like each other at all.... but on the pitch a great combo.
