Thanks for that Bullseye. 
Even though we are loosing Clark, Huby and Hauraki we have next year in the pack:-
Andy Lynch
Adam Milner
Grant Millington
Nathan Massey
Ryan Boyle
Oliver Holmes
Frankie Mariano
Scott Wheeldon
Lee Jewitt
Matt Cook
Junior Moors
Steve Crossley
Carvell might also get a gig as well - so we should have plenty of pack options.
We also have signed "he who cannot be named" TBA. |

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall"
"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

| Quote: Charlie Sheen "Apart from Moore replacing Clark, the departing players have been replaced by better players for next year I think. Replacing Huby will also be very difficult, but overall I think Cas look stronger for next season.'"
Guess you are not counting Sneyd. To me Marc is being replaced by Gale as they are the more structured halves and play a similar style. Roberts is an off the cuff type player a bit like chase who will have more of running game. Dont think Gale is a better player than Sneyd and would take a big improvement to be as good as Sneyd has been this season. Its a question of getting the balance right and this season you have with the halves. Sneyd could go to Hull and not fit into their structures of play. |

I can't say I rate Sneyd that highly. Gale is a better player at the moment IMO. Both are very average in defence though.

Is Powell looking to change Finn to a hooking role then?
I've seen both play only as an away fan and the odd tv appearance but I would say Finn is better than Gale.
Is that not the case?

I would imagine it will be Roberts and Gale in the halves next year with Finn as back up. Losing Clark will mean Moore and Milner will be competing for the hooker role and Finn providing cover for the halves and hooker positions.

What did you think of Gale today? Cas certainly targeted him in defence.

not his best game but still better than Sneyd who seems to be in a bit of a blip form wise Hull fans will be glad to hear.
Is Gaskell signed up next year?
Always rated this kid, but reckon he would make a great loose forward rather than half-back, which I think would be perfect for Cas.

Gaskell was one of the first guys to re-sign with the club for next season. He had a great game today. He should tear it up next year. |

I was thinking the same, he would make a cracking loose forward...well a throw back to when they could create, score tries, ball handle and kick!

[b:3oz7jfnu]Wigan Warriors coach Shaun Wane told BBC Radio Manchester:
"Some people within the club [Castleford] have come out with comments saying we're beatable and it's a great game for them and they're very confident.
Many of the comments I've heard have been bordering on disrespectful.
They can be as confident as they want, but they're going to get a tough game this weekend and we'll be trying our best to make sure they don't get that win.
We've played in some big games over these last few years and they've not played in as many, if any, so to be that confident is very risky for them.
They come here with confidence because they've scored a lot of points and beaten us at home, but I wouldn't be overconfident if I was them."
[u:3oz7jfnu]Incidentally Wane's mob got stuffed 16 - 4[/u:3oz7jfnu] [/b:3oz7jfnu]:30462.jpg |

| Quote: Towns88 "Signing confirmed. Would imagine he will partner Ben Roberts with Finn taking Jamie Ellis' spot on the bench who is Huddersfield bound.'"
Gales signing was actually completed in early July,it just goes to show how clubs hold back confidential information 
IMO he is a far better team player than Sneyd |

Gaskill will tear the championship an new one next year. Great performance on Sunday from him and I hope to see Bulls back in SL for 2016.

That's what everyone said about 1/2 of our squad pre-season. The biggest part of our 'squad' is the coach, who seems to get the best out of all of his players, regardless of how they came to sign with us. |
