If the tag line is that Staveley was down the pecking line, then we should only be signing someone who is better and maybe more experienced than him. Still disappointing, I know there are two sides to a story, but it does sound like he wanted to stay and fight for his place (even moved to Hull), but the club didn't want him. It won't happen, but would love the club to come out and say why he was released, we have had alot of abuse directed our way from previous players, would be good to fight back a bit.

I see that Waimhouse has posted overnight on Instagram his images of him in each kit. Perhaps he's moved up the pecking order, potential back rower?

[quote="The Dentist Wilf":365hps89]It's not just about a coaches judgement on how you play or train but about your whole application to the career and the group. You toe the line follow the instructions and get your head down with Cartwright, or your out, the coaches and physios do their bit but the players have to do theirs, that's what one of the assistant coaches told me weeks ago on this subject. And so it has been!! This is not just strong action, but also a lesson for the rest I guess![/quote:365hps89] That's about as close to the truth as I think we'll get and it's what we've been crying out for. 100% professionalism. No exceptions and let's get rid of the culture of mediocrity we've become entrenched in.

Just read an article saying some club owners are plotting to overthrow the head of the RFL and install Nigel Wood in temporary charge, is it April 1st??!! This game loves machine gunning it's foot

Generally employers now just give references with dates you were employed and that is that, for fear of reprisals later.
