Just looked at the comment posted yesterday on the Cas website which talked about not taking our players, which seemed to go against this. Factually they are correct, as they talked about contracted players, which as of yesterday afternoon, young Jacob ceased to be classed at that. Good luck to the lad.

Andy Lynch, et al, weren't contracted when Bulls signed them after Cas's relegation in c2004. It hurts, I agree.

The difference being that we've always been cast as carpet bagging vulture b@stards, whereas Cas are meant to be loverly.

Hope he gets a shot at Cas. He's a special talent, can make play for others, fast, great hands, one on one he's dynamite.

But getting off topic.

Jacob Trueman - another stab to the heart ... it's truly sickening to see our home-grown talent go ... so much hard work and investment by so many dedicated people, not least Bullbuilder

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

It bloody well hurts.

The fact you bring this up about once a month doesn't at all suggest you're still a little bitter about it.

Anyway, about that Voluntary Tackle....

Does hurt, but just wanted to satisfy myself there wasn't a whiff of hypocrisy, which there wasn't, so good luck to Cas as well!!

PS Didn't we get Michael Platt on the same basis in 2007, with relegation triggering contract cancellations? You could say we got one good and not so.......

Out of all the clubs im glad he's gone to Cas. Good club. Well run and one if the few reasons i watched SL last year. They also focus on youth development so im glad his talents wont be wasted.

I agree gutting though. We were so close of bearing the fruits of our labour with these young kids. But im sure it was worth signing...

Richie Mathers, Johnny Walker, Vila Halafihi, Dave Peterson, Chris Uligia, Samir Tahraoui, Karl Davies, James Mendieka, Johnny Campbell,
Dan Fleming, JPB, Lucas Walshaw to sacrifice theze young players.

How much did it cost each player per appearance Mr Green Ferres & Lowes.

Run by amateurs

I'm loving this special privilege we are getting from the RFL. All our players cherry picked for other sides, while we have to try and cobble together a team to play, never mind compete, in the next few weeks. We are so lucky.


This it totally gutting this. It makes me very sad.

Hey don't knock these guys, they might be the core of our team this season.

That is unless SL clubs come with better offers

You got Platt, who i thought very unfairly ridiculed on here by some. You also, eventually, got Wayne Godwin & i'm sure there was one other but I'm buggered if I can remember who it was.
