Quote: Northampton_Saint "I thought it was openly acknowledged that he's been released without a fee having been paid (Cas have no money) and with Saints continuing to pay a large percentage of his wages for the final year of his contract. Those wages won't count on salary cap to be fair, and by offloading him to a minor club on a multi-year contract now instead of releasing him as a free agent at the end of the year we've kept him away from Leeds, Wigan etc. but it still reaks of a poor bit of business any way you look at it.'"
I'm not overly surprised if we've let him go for nothing (fee wise) maybe inserting a sell on clause to make sure Cas couldn't just flog him and make a profit but I would be surprised if we were paying his wages. I'm assuming it's all confidential but it would certainly be a good question to ask Mr McManus at a future fans forum
