| Quote the flying biscuit="the flying biscuit"I haven't seen any statement from Clark saying he wants to remain at Cas. He made his decision when cas were ordinary and we trying to get to our second grand final on the bounce.
It was a vitally importent decision to make for himself for cas and for other players that would be brought in to replace him. You live by your decisions and Cas have bought Scott Moore as his replacement so he can't just turn round and say I want to stay.
I don't see weller hauraki Craig Huby jamie Ellis or Marc sneyd saying they wish they hadn't signed with their new clubs.'"
Do you honestly think they would make a public statement?
Castleford had no option but to cash in some of their assets as they had real financial issues twelve months ago. The Clark payment was somewhere in the £165k range. |

| Quote mark_m="mark_m"It seems we bought Clark by paying some bills for Castleford (utilities, tax etc) but Clark has stated he wants to remain at the club. Question is now is do we want a player who doesn't want to be here and if not do we get the money back from Castleford?
The last time we signed a player without their consent was probably Martin Gleeson?'"
I know the point you're making Mark, but I can't see how you can sign someone without their consent, they have to agree terms, or can just say I'm staying put.
I'm somewhat quizzical about the circumstances of the sale as well, we got told they had to sell someone to keep the woke from the door, it was Clarke or chase, and they've ended up flogging both of them. Now I know they've invested the chase money well and done well this season, but flogging both makes no sense, especially when medium to long term they're losing more players next season.
Are the board happy they've just got a club to run ? Is Wembley a big bonus for this year ? Probably. |

We'll find out how good DC is today. Leeds will target him , he's Cas' key player and it's the biggest game of his career.

For me the money they have received for both chase and Clark has basically enabled them to assemble a team that's been competitive.
The bonus so far wembley and a top 8 playoff guaranteed.
Therefore this team was funded by koocash and Moran so we get Clark we don't want the money back as it wasn't a loan.

Well, he hasn't set the world alight today ,but there were plenty of forward passes from dummy half. Unfortunately ,most of Castleford 's creativity was coming from the left hand side 3/4s & Finn.

struggled today but never had quick ball. You could see him tensing up as he couldn't get into the game. Certainly does not have the vision of Monas. |

Gleeson was sold without his consent although I suppose he was in breach of his contract. |

DC isn't a Wire until DC is in the HJ holding up a Wire shirt after it has been announced by the club.
