What's his injury ? If he's due back, would we be foolish to play him in the next 2 games ? Ref to the club he's signed for. Wouldn't he be more keen on KR being in the 8's ?

Hopefully irrelevant after Thursday!

He's still a professional. I can't imagine he would throw a game, or even be capable of doing it.
His contract will be the same either way.

If he's fit I would play him.

There's every possibility he could give less than 100% though surely. Would Chester take that risk ?

I questioned his performance against HKR, before it was officially announced he'd signed, but this is different for me.
Would any player risk missing a CC SF, and possible Wembley appearance/win, with a couple of lacklustre league displays to try and help his future team? He gains zero fro KR making the 8 this year, but risks a career defining chance.
I know which way I would go if lucky enough to be in this position.

If it were me, I'd be playing harder to prove a point to new employers and to just prove my worth to my current team mates.
It happens all the time. There are not many professional sportsmen who would play worse than they were capable of just because they are moving on.

He allegedly asked not to play against his old club (Bradford), which seemed to ruin his Trinity career.
Having said that 3 subsequent coaches didn't think he was up to the job either !

It's just the possibility that he might be moving to a championship club. I'd like to think he'd give 100% as he has all season, but I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see him until after the split, which would nullify any skullduggery.
Maybe Its just me overthinking because of the shakey position we are in ATM.

Chester has publicly said that 'Tom, Scroots, Toops, Kirmo, Ando and Mikael' will be in the 17 against Catalan....look at Yorkshire Radio TV interview before Wigan game...
