Vic Johnson Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 What happened to Andy Kirk? I always thought he was a good consistent player Featherstone Rovers-a Super league club in waiting. It's time to let us in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John63 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Ithink we can only class those as old Rovers if they were first reared by Rovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micngill Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) Ithink we can only class those as old Rovers if they were first reared by Rovers. Only a few of those listed were brought through the ranks at rovers. A symptom of the contract system - players are on the merry go round every few years. I thought Paul Hughes signed for dewsbury?

Rob Hare Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Josh Weedon played 6 games for Normy Knights this season scoring I believe 7 tries. He then went back home and I do''t know if he is intending on coming back to England or not. I just can't get Rovers out of my head! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 That's just how it is these days. Everybody on one year contracts and wholesale changes every year. Some of those players are rejects and some have gone on to better things. "We'll sell you a seat .... but you'll only need the edge of it!"
