Quote: Largeparts "What does the Westerman £40k thing mean ? Are Wire after Thomson ? Or does Joe want to come back here ??'"

Apparently Westy wants to come back to Hull but Hull and Wire can't agree on a transfer, but Westy has offered to pay £40k for the fee. Or that's the rumour at least. Personally wouldn't have him back, he gets in the way more times than not when he plays as a ball handler.

I think when he did that at Hull, it was because we had nobody else really. At Warrington, especially last season, he looked very good with 2 good halves in the side.

I think as a wide running second rower he would be a good option

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason. -[i:1c45x4hd]Emmitt Smith[/i:1c45x4hd]:



Westy would/could fit in to the ball playing second row role Mini has been playing this season. His biggest weakness is how much he tries to force plays that aren't on or just one man army it, which I hoped would have been coached out of him.

I don't think we've missed him one bit. Getting fees for him and Lineham was an excellent piece of business.

I'd be happier with Turgut and Hadley getting more time than Westy coming back.

If Ellis retires we could do with an experienced mature player though. Someone like Glenn Stewart maybe?

I'd keep Hadley and can't see why we would let him go unless there has been s fall out.

On Westerman I asked the question a few weeks ago when he was at the reserves game, would you sign him back, I would, good player for us, particularly when used right and has played well for Warrington, don't see it happening though.

If Radford wants Westy to come back, his judgement is good enough for me.

As for a winger, how about kevin naiqama, linked with him in the past and could be surplus to Wests should they sign Fonua and Thompson, has his faults but like Fonua think his style would suit SL.

Linked with him last year and his brother is over here.

Also Rumour on the Rovers board that Ken Sio is interested in coming back to SL, would be a great signing.

Sio would most definitely be a good signing.
Westerman, well on last years form he was the stand out 13, however I think we should be thinking about using Hadley in a ball handling forward roll, he can certainly cover the dummy half position if need be and whilst that might relegate Washbrook to squad member I'd rather see us go forward with Hadley.
If it's to replace Ellis then that's pants because Ellis was primarily used as another prop, I don't want another prop type 13 at the club, it doesn't benefit us IMHO.
As I said previously I can't honestly see JA coming back next year at least but who knows.

I'd let Talanoa go in any case, i think we can do better.
