We have a lad called gore coming through, very good player but not getting game time. We've had Mellon and Obrien here and from what I hear lee will be here next. Idrather give our lads a chance but Gaskell is a quality player who will no doubt add to our squad

Might be Wigan bound at the end of the season!

That would be terrible if it happened.

I'm very dissapointed at the way Gaskell's been treated - he gave his all last season and could have a great future.

I rate him and think he needs game time most of all.

If he goes to Wigan I may just have a moderation break down and ban myself.

I have always rated Gaskell and have always thought he was a better half back prospect than Lomax with a much better all round game for that position. I cant see Saints letting him go and certainly not to Wigan.

Really, given our recruitment recently it would be par for the course.

Could it be that the saints coaching staff know he's leaving at the end of the season and thats why he aint getting a game may not be the case but just a thought.

Well I really hope not! Does anybody know when his contract is up?

Regardless - What does he need to do to get a game!

When's his deal up?

I'm a huge Gaskell fan and have said for a while I believe he's a better 'halfback' then Lomax. I can't see him being allowed to go to Wigan if he's under contract but I can't see how the lad can be satisfied with playing u20's at the moment.

I'm sure he signed an improved contract at the end if last season. Not sure if it meant his contract was extended or simply his salary went up. You would have thought they'd have extended his then current deal.

Contract up end of 2013 so Wigan might buy it out

Swap for Finch?

Why would Saints let Gaskell go permanently? It just doesn't make sense

His future at Saints depends on whether Brown rates him.

I still think he is a better 6 than Lance but it is clear that Rush doesn't like him.

He's not off contract this year so I'm not sure. Saints' twitter said the coaching staff felt that it would be better to take him out of the limelight after the pressure he faced after the Bradford game. Yep it's a strange one.
