getting selected by MacNamara for an already poor side??

I don't buy into all this "international" guff, what has he won.....nothing.

Westerman fully deserved his call up last year after being given a suitable role in the team at Hull. He's been a way off that standard this year with injury a contributing factor.

I agree 100%, but one swallow does not a summer make. He's been far from the worst player this season, for me it has to be down to our "go missing" attack.

Heard a rumour he wants out at Hull and has been given permission to speak to Other clubs, Leeds and Warrington are doing just that apparently, anyone heard anything or is it just the usual crap doing the rounds ?

I believe this is all correct. Doesn't toe the line with Radfords discipline rules, expensive and under performing. We are open to offers which I suspect will allow us to invest in a half back.

You wont see him in a black and white shirt again.

Why would we want to do that?

Leeds bound, if the money's right.

good

shame if true, but just rumour atm

Now sure how I would feel about that. If it was true it would be embarrassing for AP after denying it so recently. It would make some sense though as I think they have to find a place for Abdul and with Manu and Mini in the back row where would he fit? I always thought Westy had not fulfilled his full potential, first we played him out wide which seemed a waste, up the middle least season he looked really good but dropped off since then.

It would also release some cash, I think he only has a season left on his present contract so it may be better to cash in when we can.

Nathan Massey signed to replace him? (Just a rumour over on the Rovers forum).

What we need is a washbrook and Ellis who will surely rip superleague apart! Oh wait a minute

If it was true we have more than enough back rowers that he doesn't need replacing.

I guess if Leeds are interested it would to cover for JJB who I would expect to retire early. Never thought Westerman was the type of individual who would fit in at Leeds but if he's happy for a wage cut and a move to a club who could potentially take him to the next level
then it could work for both party's because he does have massive potential. Not sure on this one to be fair but can see all the reasons why it could work for him at Leeds if he buckles down.
