as for chev walker, with our foul play and sin binning record this season is another hot-head what we need?
Don't see your point is.
As a team, the frustrations of not performing and to any consistency, are surely weighing heavily on players.
I thought the point was obvious. I think you will find the vast majority of our penalties against count is down to three players Hock, Fletcher and Lockers, not the team as a whole.
It isn't the team getting frustrated giving away penalties it is down to a small number of consistent offenders giving away the most penalties for whatever reason.
If Walker is a hot head then he may join that band of players thus making our penalty count even worse.
This is leading to their indiscipline, IMO a more settled, balanced, winning side will surely result in a more disciplined team.
I think it is the other way around. If the team was more disciplined they would win more games. We have a settled side with few injuries so far this season so they really don't have an excuse.
Catalans have no relegation problems, thus have no pressures placed on them to the extent that futures are being played for. Hence their placing at the top of the Fair Play League Table.
Whether that is an issue or not for our players it is only certain ones who are reacting badly if it is. The question is therefore would Walker react like those players or be more professional about it?
I have no idea what his past record was like on this front but if he has a deserved Hock-like reputation for indiscipline we really could do without that.
