Walker was signed when it looked like Hampshire wasn't staying.

Max had flaws in his game which is why coaches were never 100% sure.
He has clearly improved with age.

I see where you are coming from and I don't think Chester had the greatest of confidence in Jowitt, I could get Grix as although he wasn't perfect, he was experienced and probably the best option at the time. Walker was a weird one though, although he showed a bit of promise at London for a season, he was a green as they come and had a lot more flaws in his game than Jowitt did at that point. I think Chester just got it wrong.

Think it was because he looked good in a bad side....
Although that didn't really help us when he came here as it became clear he wasn't good enough for SL - I thought it was MC that wanted him in the main? But could be wrong....
