Many on here have questioned this signing but in reality he is a typical Powell buy. He might not strike you as a star buy but is a good solid honest pro and furthermore is reliable and dependable. Sure he has his faults like many others but deserves our support until such time as he has proven otherwise. My only concern is that he may hold back some of our better youngsters but that will be down to the new management and to the youngsters themselves to compete with him.

That's the way I saw Mamo at the start of the season RD, I don't think it's a perfect fit but with the right attitude it works.

And now I see that Jesse Sene-Lefao is to leave Cas at the end of the season.

No mention of retirement, no mention of returning to New Zealand.

Think I read somewhere he was probably off to Salford.

Torn his ACL

Ouch. That's 2 of our new signings out for the majority of 2022, the 'Powell Curse' has followed him over the Pennines.

Who has?

Greg inglis

Greg Minikin

Perhaps we could do with converting part of the HJ to a hospital wing. We seem to be perennial recipients of injured players who reduce the squad depth even before the new season starts.

So unlucky with recruitment for next season. Wishing him a speedy and full recovery. Shame for him as even if he gets fit he won't have had the time to gel with teammates on the field after a full pre season. Same goes for Harrison.
