Hang on. Vindicated
The former Gold Coast playmaker signed for the Robins in the off-season along with Maurice Blair, but Chester would be surprised if Kelly left Rovers before the end of his deal.
"Albert is a Hull KR player contracted for three years," Chester said.
Denied the existence of the get-out clause that's been the subject of such joy too. Pants on fire all over the shop here. Scenes.

The Mighty F90 was the master - got loads of bites by slightly and repeatedly misquoting Pearson, back when the latter's pronouncements were treated with somewhat greater reverence than now.
Our recruitment and retention has been, overall, pants the last few years, that's a fair point. 2008-11, we had some stability - too much some said, by the end of Morgan's reign. And we did need to rebuild - which we've now done 4 times in as many years. We're crying out for continuity as much as anything. Well, maybe not quite as much as at least one bigger backrower and probably a hooker, but nearly.
When the tiny f90 disappeared as if by magic Des Boreson appeared mmmm strange that
Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand Workin' in the dark against your fellow man But as sure as God made black and white What's down in the dark will be brought to the light

Varying reports about both Pritchard and Inu, Inu especially (seeing as he's coming from French RU isn't he?) apparently very variable in his quality/approach to the game, if they both turn up and do as good a job as Minichello then they are quality accquisitions. IF as some Australians have said they are hot and cold then maybe it's not that great a deal, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
One thing is for sure it's a good job the Aussie dollar has dropped hugely against sterling the last year or two because even with the sub from the doggies we'd not have being able to afford Pritchard and Inu.
Would we be paying Pritchard full whack for 2017 and 2018, if so does he become our marque player then?

I think the winger will be a cheapish signing.
These are all Radford's signings or renewed contracts under him so the salaries are under his control aren't they so they can't have being overpaid can they? Lineham was offered a decent wedge from what was written above, Rankin too, Micky P one of the top earners from all accounts, Cunningham on peanuts, Micheals probs not on huge amounts, Sa I've no idea but more than Micheals I would have thought. Don't forget Howarth too albeit on peanuts as well.
Does that add up to Taylor, Pritchard, Inu (if that indeed happens) Washbrook, again if it happens (hope not!), maybe if Yeaman is going to be on reduced terms that'll take a bit off but Naughton's improved contract would easily negate that even if Yeaman was offered a reduced amount.
