put Walker in a good team and he would be a class act
Still doesnt make sense to me to use a quota spot on an ageing winger to play full back when we have Walker,Hardaker,Moy and litten particularly as we are crying out for a strike centre and a powerful front row.
Wasnt blighted by injuries when at HKR because their Physios recognised and worked on the leg areas that they needed to build up,and we certainly have some incoming players with suspect injury records.
He has pace and unfortunately all players with pace are susceptible to hamsting injury.

Have you forgotten Cartwright is third choice coach?
That said for once having been turned down previously may have done us a favour

He was only there four months and he missed five games.

Do you think Jack Walker would be first choice full back at Canberra Raiders?

Says it all really doesn't it!!!! IMG take note (but they won't). I guess we will have sold more since the last announcement of 6000 plus and although the deadline was yesterday, I wouldn't be surprised if they now use that old James Clark trick and announce an extension of the deadline 'due to popular demand', :lol: I wondered in the first instance if introducing an early deadline date compared with other years was a mistake but it will be interesting to see what we end up with. Although those predicting 2000 and 3000 max were in cloud cuckoo land (we are made of sterner stuff than that) but I have to admit that its more than I thought One things for sure we must have the most long suffering fanbase in the history of Super League!

whilst i tend to agree, the club has got themselves into a right mess on and off the field, at the end of a players contract we need to be more ruthless, not just giving players another year or 2 because he's an 'ull lad for example, talks the talk, trains well but doesn't do it on the pitch.

as for Walker, just unlucky i reckon, probably on a fair whack and his injury record come into consideration in him being told he can leave.

probably not but at 25 is much better long term value at Hull FC than Rapana is at 35

Debatable given that Walker has left a club five times now in three seasons.

Myler and Cartwright have presumably decided that Rapana is a better bet and offers more on and off the field.

Walker has played 47 games since 2020

Rapana has played 101 since 2020.

Walker is one of those guys who has talent but can't stay on the pitch

I don't know what the price freeze was. I paid £310 for mine last night. Today it's the same price?
