There’s no doubt about Walkers ability it’s just his injury record has unfortunately been an issue hence why Leeds did t renew his contract. He did well for us but then again injury struck which ended any possible deal.
Think his main injury was the foot injury at Leeds which needed surgery and was potentialy career threatening.Not sure of his injuries since then but i think most of his more serious injuries have been hamstring which you tend to find players with pace suffer from at times.
I agree when he came on loan he did well until his injury but i still think he is a far better full back than anything we have including Hoy.
Gives us pace,the ability to line break and is also that pivot we need from full back which we dont get from either Litten or Shaul.
The staff at the club will know Walker well and i just think he would be ideal if it looks like we will have to move Hoy into the halves plus we dont have to use a quota spot on an overseas full back
