Where are you getting your info from Gronk, you was wrong about coach, did you sit in the meeting when RW when he said this to the coaches that he will spend up to full cap, but it would come later, you seem to be in the know when your clearly not..
As the season rolls on all fans from all teams will see what their club owners are ready to put in and what players are coming in, admit it it is just a guessing game...

I would be quite happy to add 3-5 more players at this stage to be honest. We don't need a big overhaul of players as we've had many times over the past few years, stability is going to be the key and hopefully the new coach will bring that.
Out of all the names mentioned for the job Millward wouldn't be my ideal or even 3rd choice, however I will be willing to give him a go and if things don't work out I hope that we do the sensible thing and get rid before we get in to a situation where we are flagging behind and the rest of the good work that has been done is lost. I also hope he is willing to put his money where his mouth is with regards to predicting us to lose week in week out
Hopefully his off field antics are a thing of the past too!

He slags them off or he predicts they will lose? There is a difference.

| He's not completely wrong, Justin was told he can spend max cap in year 3 and he would be expected to reach a final

Exactly, the team now just needs quality adding so the current players can become good depth - example being add 2 second rowers and your depth becomes Stuart Jones & Martin Aspinwall, that's some good solid backup.

The source used for Gentle had actually signed was from a different person, I should have checked the info back before posting it I admit it appears he assumed Gentle being AT the club was because he was signing the deal, he was there for a 2nd interview it turns out - a case of 2 + 2 He's not completely wrong, Justin was told he can spend max cap in year 3 and he would be expected to reach a final'"
Someone on the Wakey board I believe it was also said that Wright was telling candidates that the goal is to win the league in 3 years.
But he isn't one for deadlines, at a meeting 3 years ago now he stated:
Full salary cap spent in 2 years (so last season)
Stadium built and playing in 3 years (so this season)
Win the challenge cup in 3 years (semi final so close)
Win the league in 5 years

| I don't quite understand the reaction on here, Millward is a world class coach who given the chance to change things at the club will work wonders - look at his two stints at us and Saints for evidence. We've played some brilliant stuff this year, losing 1 game in the process.
This 'off-field' antics argument is a bit of a no brainer for me, this is way in his past and his media presence on several media outlets can hardly be a bad thing for you can it?

He's FAR from a world class coach.
Bennett & Bellamy are 2 examples of world class coaches, Millward isn't even close.
People are upset because all the good coaches rejected the club so they were left with the LAST option, this dolt.
Quote: The Leyther "his media presence on several media outlets can hardly be a bad thing for you can it?'"
It can be when he goes off spouting that the club can't be a separate entity in Super League and SHOULD merge with Wakefield, the man knows nothing about the club or town - on top of that he seemingly has major problems with the team and he doesn't think they're good enough to win any games, just see his predictions for confirmation on that.

| Yeah, he isn't world class. There are a fair few SL coaches who are far from world class, and IM isn't even coaching at that level currently.
He obviously comes with high praise from the Leigh fans and that alone has given me enough optimism to be looking forward to what he can do at Cas.

| 2 Grand final wins and 2 Challenge cup final victories......its a disaster
Seriously, he was not my first choice as he is a bit of a "maverick" but the only blot on his record that I can see coaching wise is his stint at Wigan.
Lets just see what happens tomorrow and if it is him lets see what he has to say about where he sees Cas going in the near future and how he plans to make it happen.
Heres hoping!

| He spoke to some of the players yesterday.
Apparently he questioned our defence, as if you cant miss it.
Also he's hoping to keep the production line of youngsters moving along nicely.
So lets se if he's true to his word.

That was certainly his plan for us at Leigh, our team at the minute consists of players from around the area bar the odd exception.

If he gets the players fitter and sort the defence out he will win a lot of doubters over.
The young players coming through are a must as we haven't much to spend have we?
