I sincerely hope you're not talking about Hul FC here...

Just because he was a world beater 2 years ago doesn't mean he will automatically progress to his full potential. There are many examples who just don't seem to live up to there young reputation.
As someone posted early on in the thread it should seem like a loss but t doesn't. Looking at his stats from this season his average gain per game is 64m which is 15th best in the team.

If his wages are used to tie up Lovegrove, Taylor & J. Hodgson on long-term deals, then its a sacrifice worth paying. His form since 2010 has been below the standards he set and that's just not progress. He's got it in him but I don't think we will ever see it.

Wovers fan living in the past? Never.

And I take it that you think McDonnell, Welham, Green, Dobson, Taylor, Galea, Josh Hodgson are better than anyone in our squad as well then?!

I hadn't thought about it like that. If thats their logic then I agree it would be the correct thing to do in my opinion

HMMMMM YOUR TOUGH !!!!!:Black Backgrounds/Beaker.gif



Rugby League is littered with players who had masses of potential at 17 / 18 only for them to be found out as average players.
Watts is just another name to add to the list.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg

Is it not interesting to see a player in the international scene who can not get a place in his club team?

Sums up him up pretty well, tbh.

Think he could do well with a change of scenery. Hoped he'd do well with Hull KR, but it was gradually becoming a forlorn hope.

If he's on good money, get shot and let somebody else pay it.

If not, hold onto to him - it's not costing much and if he's gone to the press behind the club's back, we can take a fee from his upgrade, as our pound of flesh. I don't think it dragging on would even be much of a distraction - he might even knuckle down to put himself in the shop window if nowt else.
