Lee Mitchell has missed a total of 9 tackles. The person with the highest amount in the League has 22. There's not one Cas player in the top 25 on the SL website. Go figure.

Griffin has had a difficult job but with a decent centre inside him and playing on his preferred side (the left - even he admitted this himself), he will be a good acquisition. As a winger his job is to score tries. The majority of the defensive work should be from those guys inside him.

You really reckon that a coach can change things in just a few months? Crikey, you have high expectations. Given that Millward walked into a job where the majority of the players were already contracted for this season, there's not much he could have done in terms of recruitment, especially when his policy was retaining our youth. Citing examples of Maguire and Brown, both who had money at their disposal is silly.

Who is this supposed player we missed out on signing then?

Tony Smith turned Warrington round in the middle of a season, Maguire turned Wigan around with a full off-season, Nathan Brown did the same Huddersfield - Cas could have had a coach up at this level but they cheaped out.

Well, read the thread title icon_rolleyes.gif If the club showed the ambition you think they have, they would have been able to get him...but guess what, people see right through Wright's spin.

No you mentioned a player who signed for London?

All the examples you're citing are teams who have UNDERACHIEVED with a good squad already in place (and another significant factor: money). I'm confident, I'd be able to have a good stab at turning some of those around.

You're expecting nothing short of a miracle if you're expecting Millward to come in heal all the players overnight and turn us into world champions. Sometimes you have to take one step back to move two forward. I'd suggest the players, of whom most are out of contract, don't seem to be doing the Cas shirt justice.

Kaufusi.

Now that we can agree on! Most of the team just don't look bothered which is rather worrying.

Quote: Towns88 "Don't blame Ellis for going to Hull. No doubt the most money, but they're a good side too, with potential to be top 4, reach finals, and no threat at all of losing their license. Nice ground, passionate crowd. Don't blame him. As for Cas, we've not lost anything, we never had him. We'll have a fair bit of room on our cap for next season, lets hope we can sign 1 or 2 exciting players.'"


Agreed.
Are we seeing history repeating itself...the last truly successful Hull side was well stocked with players signed/hailing from the Cas/Fev area (and comparitively few from Humberside icon_wink.gif ).

Why would he be friends with a racist old fool like you? Someone who has called him an egotist on here and the other forum?

I know for a fact that you don't know him really.

Oh and for the record, yes I will be, just like in November.

Never believe anyone who starts sentences with the 'Apparently'! eusa_liar.gif

Apparently Gaz is playing for free and it was the delights of Hull itself that swayed him.

See what I mean? icon_wink.gif

Do you just make stuff up for the fun of it?

He didn't use Cas to get more money because Cas didn't even make a serious offer....nor do they match the ambition of any other team in the league.

There is always the odd exception to the rule, Steve Menzies is the obvious one. Lets see how he gets on at Hull, in another 3 years he may well have every club in for him again.
