If I were a Leeds fan I would be absolutely furious about this.
They spent months inviting every Union side and nation they could find to train with them and leach their technique off them. So much so that Walker quotes England coach Andy Robinson as being his mentor.
I just can't see what the Rhinos gained from letting England RU and Bath have a live trial system at their own training sessions, at their own request.
It baffles me and if I were a Leeds fan I would demand answers. An unbelievable mistake if you ask me.
Don't talk bab. Suddenly this ''overrated thug'' is leaving and leeds fans should be devastated.
Leeds produced a host of class young players ready for international honours at the same time. The market for young british players has gone up so we were always going to lose a few.
What you must remember is we've kept hold of the key pivotal players like burrow, mcguire, sinfield and diskin. If there was an exodus of all those players then i would be peed off.
What we aren't doing is being held to ransom, if you do this long enough it creates a much better culture at a club. See wigan who probably were held to ransom for ceratin players and look how they have ended up.
And lastly, all these people calling walker for going, don't take the p*ss. You're telling me you wouldn't switch companys for probably twice as much annual salary, if it was still convenient for family or whatever?
Yeah right.
