IMO best rugby brain at the club which makes up for his yard of pace that he has missing, always a safe bet that whiting will make an intercept at somepoint just a shame that you know he will get caught but as someone else has mentioned you would hope a bit of support would help him out.
Quality player and would be disappointed if he wasn't signed up.

Rich Whiting had an awesome game, it was if he had a homing device on the ball, his reading of the game is second to none. Sign him up NOW!

getting better as he gets older.he has a fantastic rugby brain,and his lack of pace is offset by this.people talk about the likes of long and fitz with all their experience,but rich reads the game very well,and very rarely takes any risks,which is a plus in our team with some of our mistakes we have made(salford)but today has been a day to remember,and whiting was fantastic,so long may it continue

if he had a couple of yards more pace would be world class in what ever position he wanted dont see him as a second rower tho. positional play and reading of the game is first class hope they do the decent thing and sign him up soon

The most intelligent player in the team for reading the game. Would be World Class if he had some speed perhaps need to send him to Jamaica for some sprint training or employ Dwain Chambers to give him some legitimate added extra.

Not sure you can coach pace to an RL player but if he lacks that he more than makes up for it in effort and versatility.

cant coach pace but can increase his pace from astanding start. for me if he had pace he woud be international standard. Defence and attack, he is so clever without even trying

East Hull FC was chief contributor if I remember rightly with a couple of others featuring heavily. Must be a coaches dream to have a player you can rely on like you can Rich, could see loads of takers if he came up for grabs anytime soon.

give him a 10 year deal and start playing him at 13

Another thing about Whiting is his ball handling skills. He picks up the ball as clean as anyone I've seen, no matter how difficult the bounce or speed it's kicked. A bit like S Briscoe, but Whiting doesn't put his head in danger.

I'm really pleased for Whiting. To come back from a run of horrendous injuries and play like he is ,takes some doing. My only concern for him is next season as Agar doesn't seem to favour a creative 13 in the side and if Fitz re-signs ,that avenue looks blocked for him. The outside backs need the cash next season for strengthening imo . And with Hall, Calderwood, Whiting and Yeaman all ooc at the end of the season , Maybe 2 of these could be disappointed.
Personally , I'd like him to stay.

for me id like all the outside backs to be resigned with at leaste 1 new addition.

Whiting needs to be signed up and sharpish! We fans can't be the only people who see his worth, so if we don't do the right thing and tie him down then I reckon a lot of super league teams would snap him up without thinking twice! 3 year deal please FC!!

Me too, always does well and rarely plays badly. I thought he was superb today.

Thought he was superb today.

I wouldn't move him to the back row for wire though, we haven't got any wingers! in fact i wouldn't move him till next season.
