Think Hampshire's face did not fit ,far better player than some fans \ ,Chester gave him credit for Two games were he was brilliant at 7, were Hull away, lost by one point but he linked up great with milky, and Leeds away .When the tv pundits said, they could not understand why he was not in the team more often . Think the main problem was Finn( one good season out of 3) but Chester could not see that and that is also the reason,why Williams never got a fair crack as well
When you pick two games to show him doing well, you are saying he isn't consistently good enough.
For me, Hampshire is an outstanding athlete with great skills, but he lacks the game managent/team skills that will make him great. He needs a Finn just like Miller and Lino.

chester actually picked ryan 85 times in 4 years he also suffered 2 broken jaws in this period or he would of played more. When ryan left wakefield chester phoned him to sign and play full back for leigh. He didn't get offered a deal at wakefield and to be fair it wasn't down to chester it was Carter who said hel never play again while I'm ceo I hate his dad. Miller on tje other hand wanted to stay but the club delayed and delayed then after he'd signed for cas the club wanted to phone them and pay a fee for him to come back without playing.

Avenger , it is well known he has hung out for more money, from his record he has always been last player to be signed every season, so one of two things either money or your1 not that good ,take your pick. Miller was offered a lot better offer we couldn't or didn't want to but even when wad leaving in 2022 kept us up by controlling the last couple of games. That in my eyes means more than money or who he went to. Take the rivalry out of the emotiov
would you like to go to Chinese first match of season, bring your son and wife if you want, il pay.
For me Ryan fits perfectly as to what we need. A player that can play half back and full back. Whether we can get him is another story. Dagger would have done the same but went to York unfortunately.

I hardly ever spoke to Carter, but I knew we had something in common. Can't put my finger on it
