Or maybe he trying to distance himself as much as he can from the previous regime at Hull. Pearson isn't interested in what the rest of the RL world think, only what his own teams supporters are.

Pearson has ideas he wants to share with the RFL and stuff he disagrees with. He won't be the only with such views.

Shows how little you know about Cas.

15 Cas home-grown players in squad this year, 16 if you count Ferres who is from Cas. If not, 16 not come from Cas. An equilibrium.

And if it's that poor, why have we had offers for Daryl Clark and why have Shenton, Arundel, Westerman all left.

It's not so much at Hull but in general. The compensation system in League is ludicrous. How is it fair that a player, who a club has invested lots of money in and brought through gets paid what I consider to be peanuts if they leave for nothing under the age of 23?

And not so much at Chase but the constant cherry-picking of those with money for the best young/stars at other clubs.

They must be something in the wind that translates my posts into west riding. I have never said Castlesford youth system is poor and if I did it would have purely being for sarcastic purposes. The point is you said whats the point of developing youth if you can buy other peoples players. I was merely pointing out that Cas themselves sign other teams players and if your youth set up was fantastic you wouldn't need to do so. Thats not to say it is poor just every now again a bad egg is laid which means clubs have to explore elsewhere.

And all that means he has to gob off and state how he is going to spend silly money almost daily does it?
With the greatest of respect I don't think he has properly adjusted to the difference between RL and the association game.
Daily reminders about how 'I have loads of cash' and 'I will spend silly money' makes him sound like he thinks he is billy big testicles.
Sorry.

Our youth setup has being poor and under invested in for 10 years. We have made changes and investments and now play the waiting game. What else is they to say on the matter ?

If it is so poor, I wish other teams would stop taking our players (particularly yours - Lynch, Westerman, Arundle). Next year we will have 15 (16 if Danny Orr doesn't retire) home-grown players in our full-time squad, most of whom will be in the first choice 17.
There are lots of things wrong with Castleford Tigers, but developing young players in definately not one of them.

I just personally feel you have a hatred for him and you will let that get in the way of any judgement you make on his comments.

Read posts before you reply to them, generally a good idea.

Sorry, misread it even when I quoted you.
Though Lynch is still your best player.

What evidence do you exactly want ?

Its plainly obvious that for Rangi to sign a four year deal he would want clarification on the stadium front as I would say if it wasn't for Bradford you would be probably favorites to drop out of SL next time round. They is noway a player would sign a contract without knowing if the club plans to improve on that front. Obviousley at the time of the deal Millward was coach but Rangi had not worked under him and everyone smiles for photos.

I'd disagree about that, he is a great leader and has being a great player for us but I wouldn't say he is the best. I reckon Briscoe, Manu and Houghton are all in front of him IMO.

You are aware that at the minute Cas can't do anything stadium wise because the plans are sat on somebodies desk at what is apparently Tesco, right?

But based on your posts on the last couple of pages, you probably didn't and you're really not making any sense either.



So a player from the 5 towns area, a player poached from Cas and one of the few players Hull have actually been able to produce from the city.
