Senior in talks with Hull KR

[josie andrews]

Former Great Britain centre Keith Senior could re-launch his career with Hull KR.

The 35-year-old ended his 13-year stint with Leeds Rhinos last season but was left in limbo when a proposed move to Crusaders RL collapsed following the Wrexham club's decision to pull out of Super League.

Senior, who is set to become the only player to figure in all 17 seasons of Super League, was offered a pay-as-you-play deal to stay on with the Rhinos but has confirmed he is holding talks with Hull KR coach Craig Sandercock over a possible move to Craven Park.

It is one of three potential offers on the table for the former Sheffield Eagles player should he fully recover from a cruciate knee injury.

"I have talked to Hull KR about a deal but we are at the early stages until we know more about my recovery and fitness," Senior told the Hull Daily Mail.

"My specialist says I should be back fully fit by March next year so I am hopeful that I will only miss the first four rounds of the season.

"I am recovering from a serious injury and I only want to play for a side if I am 100% fit and can give my all. I have done that for 18 years in the game at both Sheffield and Leeds.

"I have spoken to Craig at Hull KR and he has indicated that he would be willing to take a chance on me should I prove my fitness."

Your not the first and probably will not be the last but strewth signing Senior at 35 as backup / to replace George would be one of the most stupid moves Wigan ever made if it happened.

From what I have seen of his book, his grasping ex-wife will make sure he is playing well into his 60s!
