Maybe Cunningham still sees him having a future at Saints, allowing him to play may send out the wrong signals to Sav. Hence more respect to the player and less respect to Cas, or maybe its not the thing to do at the moment putting a top 4 finish at risk.

Shame he did not see this earlier in the season, when Andre was playing well.

When was Andre playing well earlier this season? I must have missed those 5 mins!

No doubt the kid is a talent and hopefully he can bring the form he has shown at Cas back to us next year, but he wasnt playing well enough this year to keep his place in our first team and didnt show enough from bits I have seen in reserves to earn his way back in

This!

Thats the difference between a season long loan and a short term loan i think. I may be wrong though. That being said, Savelio has been quality for us since his arrival and I hope we can do a deal to keep him or loan him next season. To me, it shows Cunninghams inexperience as a coach compared to DP, I dont think KC is a bad coach at all, he will do very well for you. Anyways, I am not looking forward to Thursday, i cannot see anything but a heavy defeat, we are down to the bare bones and have has to cancel 2 training sessions apparently as there wasnt enough bodies.'" The terms of a loan are whatever the clubs agree on. In this case the agreement was that 'the loan has no recall and Andre cannot play against the Saints'. www.saintsrlfc.com/news/page/6110

The only joke is us asking if Sav can play way after the agreement! "Alright Saints, we have been playing quite well since sav joined and won 4/5, dya mind him playing against you , potentially scuppering your chances of finishing the season with momentum and ahead of Wigan?" . I wonder why such a tempting offer was turned down.

I think that was last season, the club didn't know his best position this season and stalled his progression in the process.

I'm assuming somebody is watching AS quite closely to note how Cas seem to be getting the best out of him while we couldn't. It's either positioning, motivational or simply in his head, whichever it is needs fixing before he's dumped out.

Cunningham's job is to win. Taking players away from the opposition can only help that cause.

Savelio has been great for us.
He works really well running lines for Rangi down our right edge.
Nice footwork, good hands, runs good lines and solid in defence.
We'll keep him .

I think his beef with Saints is that he wants to play in the second row. That seems to be where he's playing at Cas.

He always did play second row until "he who knows all things" got hold of him.
