The Reardon Saga.

Reading inbetween the lines it looks like the wire and reardon struck some kind of agreement whereby wire would assist reardon in gaining full fitness after his achilles injury and once full fitness was obtained reardon would leave for pastures new.

It now appears that it has backfired as Hull FC have discovered that Reardon has not recovered from his injury and probably wont for some time if at all - why would they release him if he was only a few weeks away.

It begs the question of why Wire had passed him fit (Lowes confirmed in his warringtonworldwide interview) yet Hull FC's medical team have turned up with a different opinion.

Are the Wire medicals not as thorough or stringent as they should be and does this explain why we have suffered from injury nightmares for the last few years ie, are players being passed fit when they actually aren't? this could go for new signings and also players on rehabilitation.

Just a few thoughts that have been going through my grey matter today.

I think if he is injured as a contracted player we have to pay for his treatment and rehab.

It looks to me like Hull saw the backlash they were getting from their own fans.

It seems that in signing him that they were going to look bad if they kept him, but they look just as stupid by getting rid after 11 days

Interesting Panties but a lot of the above is guesswork or conjecture. I suspect we were contractually obliged to pay for his rehab and we came to an agreement with him to terminate his contract rather than dismiss him for gross misconduct. Again, conjecture on my part I suppose.

If you have a dodgey car then you tart it up and get rid.

Only if you are dishonest with no scrupples.

I personally couldn't sleep at night pulling a fast one like that.

If Rearden had been found not guilty he would have still been with us - when they found out that he was to receive a sentence then we got rid - simple as

Nothing is ever that simple down at the HJ.
