Started very well, but has been struggling to get back in following injury, according to the Cas fans.

More great business!!

Gaskell (2 tries in 2 games) has already shown up better than Howarth ever did. Can anyone recall when Boyle [iever [/ihad a stand-out game?!? Thought not.

Next...

That was that game against..........



Nope!! I can't think of any!!

The club need to be careful though!! We won't have any gash players left if we keep this up!!

Richard Owen played majority of his games at Wing & Centre , Millward moved him to Fullback in 2012
only 22
career 104 games & 48 try's , we need cover in the backs and he seems out of favour at Cas

I would include Sidlow in the same category, but he did at least get us the winner away at Crusaders and against Huddersfield-Sheffield at the Etihad last year. Other than that...

What seems to be puzzling me is... what's in it for the other team? We are clearly getting a better deal in both the Gaskell and Emmitt swaps. There has to be money changing hands, surely?

Ah I stand corrected, sorry mate I presumed he'd always been a fullback. I Agree with a record like that he'd be more than welcome!

Richard Owen scored either 1 or 2 tries against us in the snowy first game at Barton if I recall correctly. He has had his brushes with the law though. As for Ryan Boyle, I personally do not like the way some people slag off our players and ex players. Ryan was a 100 per cent player with a limited game, lets just thank him for his efforts and wish him luck at his new club.

According to the Red Vee site Gaskell was offered a miserly amount to re-sign for the Saints , and wants out , they needed a utility player pronto to cover for injuries .

Boyle - Emmitt

Both are homesick ?
Boyle lives in Cas , was spending 3 hrs a day travelling to Salford ( Leigh ) to train , he's still only 25 , and may rekindle some form playing for his local club , he's been put straight into the 19 as interchange Prop for their game against Huddersfield .
It's the Sky Game on Saturday so providing they've bought some safety Bulbs , we'll see him turn into a world beater.



Remember When Rob Parker went on loan to Cas , practically won them their next two games.

Emmitt didn't have the requisite number of fingers to settle in Cas and wants back to gods own county

I don't like slagging players off, especially hard working ones like Ryan Boyle but I am more than happy with this. I do however appreciate all his efforts in a Salford shirt, he's an honest pro.

Seems like Hunte and Longy are clearing the dead wood they felt haven't been performing. More excellent work from the pair of them.

My best guess is that the new Head Coach has been appointed but not announced,and that he's behind these swap deals.
I can't see that Hunte or Long would have been given the authority to do these deals.
To be honest,they have the mark of Noble all over them.
He knows the Britsh game inside out and will know where the hidden gems are.

Possibly, I'm still not convinced by the whole Noble thing either, seems more to it than that.

Koukash, Farish, Lowe and Chalmers must all have faith in both Hunte and Long after recent weeks and aslong as these deals aren't costing us anything (which they aren't) and are improving the squad (which they are) then I reckon they'd be given the green light to go ahead.
