They didn't let him go for no reason. The reason he left, despite having a year left on his Wests deal, was because Gareth wanted to return to the UK. Wests agreed that he could leave on the promise that he would not join another NRL side.

You spoke to him about his injury fumper.
If so how bad is it.

Not the same injury though, that's the key.

according to the Hull board it's a break and he will be out for 10 to 12 weeks, hopefully he gets over quicker than that

This was all said about Morley when he left the Roosters in 2006 and joined Warrington.

"Too many miles on the clock, injuries are starting to mount up". He broke his cheekbone in the first game of the season and everyone said "told you so". Then he came back a few weeks later and broke his cheekbone again.

The next six years he dominated Super League and picked up three Challenge Cups and a minor premiership.

When did he dominate Super League??

He's made the dream team twice in seven years but I don't think he's ever got warringtons player of the year award.

Whether it's his foot or ankle it's a shame we never got to see him play & if it is the pitch to blame it needs sorting.

I blame Hetherington for allowing the England Rugby Yawnion team to train on there (pathetic publicity stunt). Maybe Ellis can sue the RFU through one of those accident/injury at work solicitors?

Vickery too.

There were some Tweets after the game from press saying there was talk in the press box the pitch was at fault. But if that was the case there would have probably been more than 2 injuries, unless they occurred in exactly the same spot.

But any compensation would come from the stadium owners not RFU...and it would just be classed as a occupational hazard no doubt.

The only thing worse than the Yawnion being allowed to train there was the fact 7k+ people showed up to watch them

Are the union team still playing at Headingly or have they had to stop, reading there board it says they have been playing at other grounds,...reading some of their posts they seem a bit disgruntled
