Utility player Chris Chester has today announced that he will be retiring from Rugby League with immediate effect after suffering a serious neck injury in the Catalans victory (Friday 1st August).

The former Wigan Warriors and Hull FC player has successfully played 67 games for the Robins since arriving in 2006, and the 29 year old Wakefield born player has enjoyed every minute of his time spent at Craven Park.

"From the very day I went to Craven Park as a Rovers player I have been made to feel very welcome, from both colleagues and in particular the fans. I've enjoyed every minute of my time here and I am sad to be leaving such a proud and prosperous club" Chester commented.

He went on to say: "I am very grateful for the opportunity that Justin gave me and I have met some great people along the way who will remain friends forever. I've never met such passionate fans and they really are a credit to the club. I'm not too sure what I want to do in the future, at the moment I just want to concentrate on recovering from this injury."

Head Coach Justin Morgan added: "Chris is a great character with huge amounts of talent; he's that type of player that turns up week after week and put his body on the line on a regular basis in order to get the job done. You can't buy the professionalism or expertise that he possesses. He will be sadly missed and I wish Chris the very best in his recovery and for the future."

After being an integral part of the squad through the Super League survival days Chairman Neil Hudgell stated: "I would sincerely like to thank Chris for all his efforts over the last 2 years and to wish him well in his retirement. He has been a consummate professional in everything that he has done whilst at the club and a key part of our Super League survival. He was very popular with our fans and I am sure his contribution will be remembered warmly by them."

Chris Chester will not require surgery on torn ankle ligaments and could return in time for this season's engage Super League play-offs.

Wakefield born Chester was taken from the field ten minutes into Hull FC's victory over Leeds on Friday (August 4th) after suffering an ankle injury.

It was originally feared that he would need an operation and reports suggested he could be sidelined for six months, however the second rower received some comforting news yesterday when he visited a surgeon in North Wales who assessed the full extend of the injury.

The surgeon confirmed he had torn ankle ligaments and also damaged tendons, however he has been told the injury is not as serious as first thought and he is likely to be out of action for only 6-8 weeks. He will not require surgery and Hull FC's medical team will now assess his progress.
