I agree, but that doesn't change the fact Gale is likely to be in pole position for MOS.

The money will go towards the north/south stand project.

Yeah can't see past Gale for MOS, had £5 on him at 16/1 at the start of the year that's looking promising. Going by Solomona being in the top 3 last season thenEden may well be in the top 3 this season although I personally wouldn't have him top 3. That'll leave one more spot and wouldn't be surprised to see a third Cas player. As good and important as we know Parcell has been I think he's gone a little under the radar by the rest of the SL.

Sadly you are probably right. There needs to be investment in the team, but we are likely to be shopping in the bargain basement again as usual.

I'd have Murdoch-Masila in there as well and if Williams has a good final 12 games he'll no doubt be shortlisted. He already has 23 try assists, 7 more than the next players.

They don't seem to take much notice of try assists. Gale smashed the SL record last season with 46 (21 more than the player in second place) and wasn't even shortlisted.

Signed a four and a half year deal at Cas.
150k fee.

Now he can come up with one of brainfart dtscipnalry

Didn't he sign a long term deal at Leeds only to screw it all up?
Odds on he'll do it again
Tick tock tick tock......

Cheers Leeds - a good bit of business there for both clubs.

He had plenty of folk looking out for him at Leeds, still didn't stop him.

I honestly hope he's turned a corner, but there's always that nagging feeling that he's 1 pint way from something daft.

For the sake of the game we need players of Hardaker's quality to play at the top of their game. If that's away from Leeds sobeit.
