wont be starting the season O'hara having a shoulder op an Withers having visa problems wasnt out in tenerife either.

No offence, but you did say Rovers away kit would be purple and Ben Fisher was staying. Considering you've only made 6 posts, your hit rate's not that impressive. Ryan O'Hara makes no mention of this injury on Twitter. Too busy overindulging stolen chocolates, it seems.

With all offence, this sounds like utter shatpank.

Mmmm withers was in morrisons few weeks ago with dobbo and green so ur way of the Mark there

we shall see then the visa problems are with his 3 kids so hes back in australia at the moment.

We've signed his kids as well?? surely that takes us over the limit for overseas?
considering he's been playing in the country for the past 2/3 seasons pray tell why there is a problem with his kids and visas.

His kids working visas? I don't think that will be allowed

DIV

Think the Ohara injury is genuine(nicks usually right) but withers is strange !

we will see whos the DIV when neither feature in pre season.

I have no idea about the Withers situation but seem to recall that last year Leeds had to wait ages for a player they signed from Crusaders to get his visa renewed.

So it doesn't necessarily follow that Withers could not have visa problems simply because he played in Super League last season.

I did find it strange that he was not given the No. 9 shirt - maybe this is the reason. I also thought it slightly odd that Rovers needed to sign a third hooker in Keal Carlisle.

Hopefully there's nothing to this story because it would be more of a blow than O'Hara who can be covered much more easily.

Hodgson & Carlisle would have to reach heights they haven't done before otherwise Rovers would look weak in this position without Withers.

And to be fair, Withers is not that great anyway, wooden spoonist and all. Thought Hodgson was your number one next season anyway, and I hope so, even though I would be gutted by it.

O Hara out for 3 months and as previously posted Withers has his visa but there are problems for his family obtaining theirs

Apologies due ?

Who is the "div" now ?


ha ha ha

Well let's be honest, if he has his Visa he should be here. There's no excuse, the coach is over here by himself waiting for the family to arrive
