Quote: Cas Till I Die "Is that list by birthplace or which academy they were trained ???

For example it was the area of Cas that produced burrow, Normanton produced Langley etc etc'"


Burrow counts on Leeds list Langley on Bradford so academy they came through.

The dissapointing thing for me is that over 1/4 of the players were trained overseas.

Quote: Homer_J_Simpson "Erm, I think you'll find that Burrow was produced in Featherstone, very definitely not Cas'"

In the words of the great Homer J Simpson "Doh"!
Rob Burrow played his junior rugby at Castleford Panthers before going to Featherstone Lions when they paid the best young players to join. These players included Richard Owen (from Westgate Redoubt), Joe Westerman (from Lock Lane) and Liam Watts (from Lock Lane).

You can't take the rise out of someone and then get it wrong yourself!! Rob played for the travs in fev from a very young age as i can remember playing against him for Stanley from u9s and then going to play for the travs myself ut u12s with players like James Ford ex cas, James Houston ex fev. I don't remember him ever playing for Cas Panthers or (Pointers as they were then) so i suppose you could say you are both right, he played his school rugby in cas and junior rugby in fev but hey ho dont let the truth get in the way of ridiculing someone. Doh.

He played for Wakey academy, then Dewsbury, then Hull.'"


Pretty sure that we signed him from York?

I guess I must've been seeing things when I watched Rob play for Cas Panthers in the same team as Kevin Till (Cas Academy & Gateshead) and Aaron Gornall (Leeds Academy). Silly me

Someone is hard up for squad players!

Yep! I think Widnes hold the record now for ex-Wigan players. At the Wigan game at the DW a few weeks back, I had my son with me, and he got fed up of me pointing at a Widnes player and saying "he used to play for us..." icon_mrgreen.gif

Quote: Dave K. "Pretty sure that we signed him from York?'"


Maybe, maybe not. To be fair, it wasn't a big history on Brough - more just pointing out that we never brought him through in any way.
