| No arguments with Mathers decision. In his position I would have probably done the same. You only get so many years playing, and at 26 you wouldnt want to be stood around wondering if this week is your week or not.
In addition to 3 years security. I would imagine a probable wage INCREASE, and locality. It really is a no-brainer
BO-YAAAAH

| He's a pro who wants to be No 1 in his position. I respect his choice and I only hope he doesn't do what he did the last time he left Tony Smith's team, Leeds, go off thge boil! Fair Play to him and he will always be remember, by me anyway, for his enthusiasm and that try at Wembley.

| No brainer for me I would have gone to Cas when the offer came through. Once it became clear Richie was not going to be TS' first choice FB for the next 2 years he was always going to be moving on. Regarding the SL licence for Cas, I would envisage all SL contracts to have a clause inserted which renders the contract null & void should the club become a non-SL club.

| Good on him. He has secured his future for him and his family (well about as much security as you can get in this profession). I think both he and Warrington have benefited in his move from Wigan.
It gave him the opportunity to prove himself after he returned from Australia and we have had stability in a position that has seen a lot of different names in the fullback position.
I thought Richard Owen would have been first choice full back at Cas in the future. He has had a terrible injury. I wonder what the future holds for him?

How could I forget to put all that under my Disadvantages of Castleford list

| I think he's already made it obvious he a) isn't prepared to play second fiddle and b) wants a better deal. I think Cas would be a good move for him: Closer to home, first choice in his position, three year deal.

| Give Richie his due, he came to us as part of the Gleeson deal after having a lot of stick from the Wigan fans.
He has been part of a club which is on the up and he is leaving with a Challenge Cup Winners medal (at least).
The move to Cas seems ideal for him so good luck to the bloke, I think he'll get a good reception from the Wire fans when he returns

| Real shame to see him go and a first test of Smith's decision making: B.H. has been in poor form and prone to injury for much of this season. Personally would have enforced the one year option to guarantee first class cover if things go wrong with Hodgson. His age and seeming frailty, combined with the lack of form, hardly inspire confidence!
Can't blame Richie for making the move to secure his family's future, but feel his chances of winning anything are greatly diminished with Cas. Had he chosen to remain and carry on his very good form he may well have played a good part of next season in a top team, giving TS no option but to renew his contract.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| I would have taken the Cas gig, however there is a distinct possibility that Cas will not get a Superleague franchise in 2012. I wonder if he's factored that into his decision?

His Super League contract would become void and he'd be a free agent
