Loans would be my favoured choice as their parent club cant recall them......so no disruption in the starting lineup (bar injuries).
Can only have 4 loan/duel players (believe they come under the 4 max rule) - so that would put us at 18, around 7 more to sign then.

Plenty more players on the market to sign.....Hulme, Calderwood,Varks,Goddard,Clay,Greenwood,overseas? and any Barra players that are available.............loads of options out there.

I hope so.

I asked the question of Ryan the other night and he said it was a duel contract.

Pistols or swords?

iPhone auto correct strikes again!

The 'parent' club can recall a loan player at any time during a loan period after the initial 28 days (that's been on here numerous times), also the maximum number of players a club can have registered is 40, read the RFL operating rules they are on line.

I tried once. The ensuing coma lasted 6 weeks.

either way.. Dual or Loan he will very rarely if ever be needed next season for Cas. After speaking to a couple of people over twitter he is down the pecking order and looking how there First team/23's are shaping up I very much doubt we will be losing him back to Cas this season

We've said the same about several dual players in the past though, never say never if he's in good form and Cas get a few injuries. A valid concern, I'd say, though one that is worth the risk if we're going to have him available for the majority of games.

Exactly people are saying if he is on a dual and not season long loan dont sign him but thats just stupid. At the moment we have riddy and Mcnally signed with O'brien in the reserves so if he does get called back which in my opinion wont be happening we do have adequate cover. But the fact that people say dont sign him if its a dual is just bazare

McNally has been signed as FULL BACK!

WE are not having a reserves this season, so is O Brien still with the club? Cant see him on the signed list!
Also I can confrim at the Gold member launch of touchdown club and at last weeks LISA meeting it was stated by two different Club officals that Ryan was NOT dual but Season Long Loan

But can play in the HALVES if required
