Then we are in agreement

Ferres as been awfull, Delaney has been a great signing, but is busted, JJB mind will body won't too many mistakes and penalties. Singleton average, we can't carry this amount of dead wood we need two-three players to freshen up, at least one should be a prop, we should bust the bank for walmsely justbthe type of player we need, and two new back rowers. Or one stepping up from academy.
Cuthbo Garbut mullally are all keepers for me, Galloway unfortunately injured long term. Oledski should punch through next year and hopefully project ormanroyd can make the step up. Only one of JJB Delaney ferres should be kept. And delebay is crock and ferres us crap, Jjb in short spells.

Hoping next year we see Ferres fighting fit and a less banged up Cuthbertson and maybe even Galloway playing more than a handful.
Delaney and JJB are physically done and Ablett isn't getting younger. We need to look now so we don't end up with patch jobs like hooker the last few years or the half back issue we now have.

If Walmsley is available we should be doing our best to get him.

Walmsley has signed for Cas.

I'd say we definitely need another forward in for next year. Otherwise the risk of us having an injury-prone decrepit pack next season AND having to replace a bunch of forwards the following off season is huge.

If that is true then Cas will walk top spot again next year and Leeds should hang their heads in shame in not getting him. He is top drawer and Leeds need someone like Walmsley without a doubt.

thought talks had broken down. I know he went for talks but I'm sure I heard they couldn't reach an agreement.
could be wrong mind

Any chance that part of the reason for Ferres' weight gain is he's being bulked up for a move to prop? If he interchanged with Cuthbertson it would be more like for like than any option we've got right now...

Walmsley signed a contract in April 2015 for 3 1/2 years so will be under contract with the saints until end 2018.

If he is available then we should be throwing everything at Walmsley, we must have some space on the cap and he would be perfect for us.

Imagine Parcell and Walmsley working together, add Cuthbertson and opposition middle forwards would be terrified to face us

If Cas sign him then they just about guarantee their place in the playoffs for the next 3/4 years, so even if they bottle it this year they will have plenty more chances at winning the GF

Be ridiculous of us to let Walmsley slip through our fingers again

bring him back to Yorkshire

What's the deal with Walmsley? Does he want back to Yorkshire for personal reasons, obviously he recently had a child.

Surely saints will be desperate to keep him and regardless of current form etc saints to cas would historically be a backward career move (apologies to any lurking Cas fans but it's pretty hard to argue that saints aren't a uch bigger club)

Despite their on field showings, Cas still aren't one of the big teams money-wise so it'd be hard to attract big name guys and keep a hold of the guys who are serving them well now but would understandably go up in value wage-wise after what they've done.
