Vasty, I remember quite some years ago you were hailing Dale Ferguson as a shoe-in for GB honours and said super stardom.

Shot yourself in the foot their matey. Never said he was a shoe in for GB, never said any such thing - please supply the quote!

At the time people mainly Cas fans and Eddie Hemmings were touting Westerman as the next England captain

I said Ferguson was as good a SL player as Westerman don't recall saying either were international standard - Ferguson is still a SL player, please remind me where Westerman is. Don't exagerate to hide your own foolishness regarding Westerman, just admit I was right - a totally over rated player as is the Cas way.

Castleford

Have extended Matt Cooks (1 year), and Oliver Holmes (2 years), contracts.

Both cracking players. Cook really goes unnoticed by many but he’s a proper grafter, makes good metres and defends very well.

It’s funny how some players get huge plaudits when others producing the same level of play don’t.

Castleford
Have also extended Greg Edens contract by another 3 years till 2021.

Huddersfield appoint assistant Mark Andrews to assist assistant Chris Thorman and his team of assistant coaches.

Widnes
Have extended Danny Craven contract by 2 years.

How big is his name plate on his office door??

Mark Andrews
Assistants assistant to coach the Assistants coach's Assistants team

WAKEFIELD

Jacob Miller has extended his contract by a further 4 1/2 years. Till the end of 2022

Bradford Bulls & Workington Town declare all out war with each other on social media and the twitter RL family goes into meltdown.

What's gone on there then?

The Bulls have a deal with Proper Sport to stream all their games live on Facebook for free. A good use of social media in order to get more eyes on the sport and try to encourage lapsed Bradford fans to watch the team again and possibly return to watching live.

Workington have pulled permission for this afternoon's game and are claiming that big, bad Bradford are trying to bully them because the livestream will damage their gate. But that they're not treating Bradford like a cash cow

Poor form by Workington, who should be grateful that they are at home playing a team with a huge fan base (by League 1 standards) and thus substantial traveling support.

Workington are spot on, why do they have to accommodate Bradford’s latest vanity project - since when ha it ever been acceptable to stream live games for free - how the hell does that benefit the game.

Bradford as arrogant as ever.

Yes, because more people watching the sport is CLEARLY a bad idea. And Workington won a famous victory this afternoon, if only there'd been a way for people all over the country to see it. They could have attracted more than the 600 or so people from Workington who showed up today to their next home game
