Fairly sure though for every Jake Webster there is a dozen Ned Catic's or Ben Jeffries or Kevin Henderson's or any other fringe player who has done nowt (or underacheived) over here.

Just think there is a right fuss being whipped up by some of the lads regarding this possible signing - based on a montage probably cobbled together by his agent (or mam). Potentially just another run of the mill import for me who may, or may not, pay off if indeed he does come.

I don't think Kevin Henderson has under achieved he hasn't come over here as a starlet and has put every thing into the game especially this season, as for the rumoured coming of Daryl Millard I'm looking forward to him coming(if he is ) he has to be worth a try as at this time we haven't yet got our young lads ready, they are knocking on the door but they do need time

our foundation for the future has been laid, we now need to build on the good work of this year

Jake Webster is good but lets not go over the top on him.

Ned didn't achieve the hights expected but BJ came as a young gun and I think we got good money out of him. (as Bulls are now)

Kevin Henderson came with even less fanfare. He came from Leigh in their disaster year and was injured for a lot of that. We got him and he has worked hard in every minute he plays. In the 2006 season he was fantastic for us as he kept switching positions to fill gaps and was the one at the end of the games (especially Cas) when we were on the rack and he just drove it away from centre and gave everybody a rest. He'll never be a star but I think he has been a great low cost aquisition for Trinity.
and isn't a quota/NFT player either.

Take away Hendo's ridiculous attempt at an offload against Quins the other year and he has very rairly let us down, certainly no more than many others who seem to escape any critisism.
Yes, he is never going to be a world beater but when others are looking for a breather he always puts his hand up to take the ball in and puts himself forward to make the tackles. Every side needs that kind and although i dont know the figures im pretty sure he will be in the bottom half of the earners at the club.
I certainly wouldnt be upset if he was signed on for next year. We as a club will always need his type well ever we are not bringing in the same revenue as others.

Due to his status I would give him another year. Has worked extremely hard this season and grafts his balls off in both attack and defence. Never going to be the best, but the type of player every club needs.

I know having another import goes against what the RFL are trying to achieve but with many apparent changes on the cards and potentially a lot of youngsters in the squad next season I think it would be a smart move to recruit Henderson, a no-nonsense, steady pro with a huge work ethic, but only for 1 year.

Sorry, can't agree. Unless we are desperate (either for money or for a replacement recruit) I would be a bit dissapointed to see him stay. I agree with the work ethic and the effort he has put in but I just don't beleive he has the ability to be a top flight RL player. How many other sides in the league would take him off our hands? I reckon Celtic and thats about all.

Look in the lower divisions, there have been a few decent prospects on sky the last few weeks - I would have hoped we have exhuasted all avenues before renewing.

Agreed. We are looking to improve - and to do so must mean raising the standard level above that of Kevin.

I have no issue with Kevin and I would thank him very much for his service - he has been good for us - but, he needs to be added to all the other players and coaches who have helped us attain and retain SL when we needed them - of which there are many.

There are better players on the market right now! icon_biggrin.gif

If we can afford and get players then fine.
I just think with the limited resources we have to work with at our club there will always be squad places for players like Hendo.

Fair enough, I know not many side would take him off Trinity’s hand, but then that could play into the clubs hands. I don’t what he is on but I can not see him being a major earner. I am under no illusions with regards to his ability but you know what you’re going to get with Henderson. If there is someone better then fair enough it would be hard to justify retaining him but if not then it’s a shot to nothing. He doesn’t count against the overseas limitations, he won’t be on a major wedge and he is pretty reliable.

Agree. If Hendo starts the season with number 11 shirt it will be a bad sign but when 11 is injured Hendo is a good one to bring in. You can't just have a load of kids coming in every time.

And Hendo is essecially English. Born in Torquay, not regarded as overseas or none fed trained because of court case to prove it.
