Ah well, 2 more for the ignore list and again I have to question why these 2 aren't banned from the Cas board, especially Smokey.

| Nothing wrong with Smokey. Sure he may be mildly annoying and likes breaking quotes up incessantly. Oh, and argues about pointless things. But at least he can string a sentence together.
And I have to say this thread mildly amuses me. It's good to see we're arguing the toss over Ali Lauitiiti and not franchise stuff.

| Quote: Gronk! "Let's see hereWell it was the same year he was named as Dally M Second Rower of the year. So i guess he had something to do with it.
Quote: Gronk! "How many years ago was he second rower of the year? Yes he USED to be good but how good is he NOW?'" He is. He isnt as good as he was but he is a natural gamebreaker and we will struggle to replace him. It is a commonly held belief of Leeds fans he is Leeds greatest ever overseas player.
Quote: Gronk! "Winning all those trophies again, all down to him nobody else in the squads was it?'" I think you have missed the fairly obvious logic that bad players arent in a position to win that many trophies, and bad players certainly dont win Tri-nations or play in WC finals. Ali was a massive influence in all the trophies he won at Leeds.
Quote: Gronk! "And no point using Ferres as a name with me - I think he's vastly over rated and a poor player with a terrible rugby brain.
'" Ali, is still better at what he does than any of the 2nd rowers at Cas. In fact possibly only Solomona could challenge him in the league. His impact and offloading ability is 2nd to none and i dont think it is controversial to say he has a fairly decent claim to being the best 2nd rower he have seen in SL. Yes he is getting on a bit, and getting him on the field is a bit of of a problem but he still offers something which is as rare as rocking horse poop. I expect if we didnt have a salary cap he would have been kept on at Leeds

Let the good times roll !!! Woooohoooo'"
Come back on here pal when you have signed players like Sam Thaiday or Paul Gallen.......... then you can say we have made "FANTASTIC SIGNINGS". Good look with who you sign, but I couldn't give a t**s who you sign to be honest, especially when you are making out that they are world beaters!!. We did that in 2004 by buying over the hill players that other Super League teams didn't want and look where that got us. I would be happy with 2 new signings to compliment what we already have and to ensure the younsters are coming through (which we have proved for the last few seasons). It's OK telling us who you have signed, wait until the promising youth players start to go AGAIN!!!

| Oh dear you can almost taste the fear of the Cas fans all the way down through my wi-fi connection! I find it really humorous that you go to great lengths to justify how poor our signings are and how they won’t make the Cas team…… blah blah blah. You’ll find everyone at Wakefield is very pleased with the recruitment so far, a nice blend of experience to mix with our young guns!
What I personally think is bothering Cas fans on here (and that other forum) is that Glover can be seen to deliver on his promises about progressively spending up to the full cap. You’ve had a couple of years in the sun but maybe the natural order of things will return.
On the subject of franchise promises, what’s happened to Dickies promise of PP for the development of WR, we was told August? At the moment no plans infant nothing at all, we don’t even know if what supermarket this so called development is going to accommodate!

Are you real? You have signed a 32 year old who is past is best. But no your right I for one have been waking up in cold sweats in the middle of the night.
As for PP dont you be worrying your little self about that. It will happen and it will be very soon. You dont believe that and thats fine whats the point in discussing it? Just wait and see.
Just focus your efforts on signing other players other teams dont want. Maybe Mr Glover can convince Sean Long he has one more year in him. Or maybe even Robbie Paul they won a few trophies once didnt they?

Like I said you I can feel the panic down my wi-fi connection! Please forgive my cynicism of the ground I'm still anchoring to that 2010 completion date that promised in your 2008 application.

| You've got to hand it to Richard wright though !! He can spin a yarn or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8. Personally I think he's out of order leading all these loyal Cas fans down the garden path. You lot must have memories like goldfish

Natural order of things?...Oh yeah, you have really troubled the big guns in the last 40 years haven't you?
In that period how many major finals in the top flight did you make?....Wembley 1979.
I am struggling after that.....or maybe you only think rugby league started in 1996!
