I said this before the season even started. I think it was his second day at Saints that he was tweeting about the M62 and how much of a joke it was. The club clearly need to do something about it. It was never ever a problem for the likes of Lee Gilmour or Leon Pryce. But Walmsley doesn't seem to be professional enough to cope with it and interestingly, neither does Jamie Foster going the other way. I would have Walmsley living in St Helens during the week at least. That way he can train and play games without having driven for 1 1/2 hours beforehand. He can return home to Yorkshire during the weekend or on consecutive days off if he feels the need, but you can't have a player commuting to a game he's playing in.
I think what you are suggesting is dangerous.
Imagine someone signing for Wigan and then be told he has to stay in the town.
