Can't see how Championship rugby will give JA fitness which all other regimes have failed to deliver ? Only he can sort out - hope he does but not holding breath.'"
To be fair to JA he has looked in shape and seems to have his head on correct, Sheens seems to really like him but he has not played him at 13 at all this year. He even played centre for half a game last week.
For me he needs to up his attacking kicking game, very good defensive kicker and good in terms of game management but his kicking lacks the finesse around the try line.
As for Westerman, I thought your game against wire turned on its head at the same time as JW went off injured, he looked very good up to that point, he went off and wire crumbled

| People had it in for Westy from day one here. He was (through no fault of his own) bought during the time we were being royally screwed by uncle Kath. When basically it was - 'yes we're driving this club to the ground, but look who we've bought for a 6-figure sum' every off season.
He was our best player for two of the years he was here and in the top 3 or 4 in the others.
That said, we simply don't play a style that suits his style anymore and our 13 is basically an extra prop. To be fair that's how Agar used to play, but he had Thorman & Washy in the halves whereas Radford has Sneyd & Kelly.

Give it a rest, you was wrong, accept it, Westerman overated , never fulfilled his "potential" whilst at Hull, him leaving was the catalyst for a better Hull FC. Just look at Warrington now, I dont care if hes been one of Warringtons better players, still overated and not what we need.

I can't disagree with that.

| I just think if the club think he,s the right player to add to the squad now,bearing in mind what we stand to lose out of the pack over the next year or two then let them get on with it, after all how many said on here that they would,nt touch albert Kelly with a barge pole,hey radders and his staff have done a pretty good job with recruitment in the last couple of years
