Wasn't he highly regarded among some of the Leeds fans ?

Very true Cap'n according to Brad's Dad/Mum/Agent

Always a bit nervous when players move to Saints or Wigan. Clark is still a fantastic player.

I am sure everybody would love for Clark to stay but this is what happens in a salary capped sport.

From what I heard when Dwyer left it is almost the same situation. Player wants X. Club offer Y and if the player can get X at another club they move on.

Even though I think Powell would love for Clark to stay I do think powell wants a bit more out of his hookers. Walker and Dwyer both have a kicking game. So maybe maybe everybody wins
Clark gets a better Deal than we can offer him
Dwyer doesn't have to spend nearly 4 hours a day on the M62
We get a decent interchange hooker and a few bob to spend elsewhere.

It will be pretty strange watching Clark run out at the HJ wearing a Saints shirt. They are big shoes to fill a bit like whoever's took the No 1 shirt after Schmichael at Man Utd. If they dont continue their dominance I just hope their fans dont get on Clark's case because I am pretty sure he will be giving everything.

Paul McShane wasn't any great shakes when Powell snapped him up. Seem to remember that one worked out okay in the end. And while some may think that Dwyer and McShane are not on the same level, let's not forget that McShane was a nobody before Powell, and has been a nobody since Powell. Maybe it's more about the coach, so let's give Dwyer a chance. However, I do agree about putting Doolan through when he's ready.

Mcshane was great before he got to cas, he was a real cock up on leeds part letting him go, which was down to a fallout with another player i believe, he shone at widnes, and he was WAAAAY too good for wakey.

i would have took him at any point prior to him signing for cas.

I’m pretty happy whoever we get as a 9 and/or bench 9.

DP has a proven record of getting the best out of them. He has developed two of the last three men of steel at 9.

I’d like Clark to stay if cornered, but as long as we have a dominant pack of props, he could play his grannie at 9 for me.
