Agreed MR but in this make or break season it really is barmy to allow him to play against Salford. Very poorly constructed contract it seems.

Marc is turning into a real crowd favourite at Cas Tigers and he's loving it here. He is the perfect fit for us. It wouldn't surprize me if we are not trying to get him signed over on a permanant long-term contract. He won us that game yesterday with his goal kicks alone.

Obviously we're only 5 games in and are still waiting to see if the Rangi/Smith combination will work but if Sneyd keeps this level of performance up there is no chance he will be allowed to leave Salford.

I'm just pleased for the lad that he's doing so well.

his kicking game is far and above Chase and Smith - I'm hoping it works out with them though so he's allowed to stay we've just released two players so hopefully we can entice the lad with a good offer

We desperately need another hooker in my view. If Sneyd is wanted permenently by Cas could we not do a swap deal for Clark? Or has he already agreed a deal with Warrington?

Many could see his potential, although strangely the majority were fans of other clubs. Hopefully Smith/Chase will hit it off starting on Sunday. If they don't, bringing in 2 big money players in a position we already had cover, whilst leaving ourselves severely lacking in other areas, is not going to look too clever.

If Marc Sneyd is loving it at Cas and Salford want him back what will happen? (That is if he doesn't want to go back to Salford). Yes he will be under contract but why keep a player that doesn't want to play for your club.

I'm a big fan of Sneyd (I got into a very big argument with Salford fans on vt over smith vs Sneyd (and various other things) and I'm so far been right ) but this suggestion is somewhat over egging his value! Clarke is one of the hottest properties in sl imo, and I'd be very happy if saints got him for £250k-£300k owing to 4 years still to run in his contract, being 21 and looking the part (and without any more detailed insight, settled and not looking to get away) - Sneyd with a year to run, potentially wanting a move away, and a definite sense of "surplus to requirements" at Salford, would probably make him little more than a sweetener for any potential Clarke deal!

(That's not to say I wouldn't want saints to make Sneyd an offer either! Depends how much we have left in the transfer kitty after Clarke I suppose )

I think you'll find Warrington tied Daz Clark up last year, We needed the money at the time. We'd do anything to reverse the sale atm. We're more stable financially and he's easily the best hooker in the league on form.

As for Sneyd. An agreement may need to be arranged should he not want to return. But that's a long way off. I can't imagine the sense in keeping 4 top hb's in the same squad. Only 2 can play each week.

Sneyd can also play fullback and he's a far superior goal kicker and general kicker than Mullaney.

Mullaney has better hands than Sneyd and his defence is better too.

And after bringing through Jamie Ellis, Kyle eastmond, Matty smith, lee Gaskell, johnny lomax and Danny Yates in the last 5 years, and all of them moved about/on, supplies in reserves are running a little low

Let's not get carried away. He's never a full back in a million years.
