| A bit disappointed by this news. Nothing against Luke Dorn at all, but Scott Hill is very difficult to replace. We were (are!) lucky to have an ex-Aussie international of his class (injuries notwithstanding). I enjoyed watching Dorn score tries when he was with Broncos - but he isn't even in Cas's starting side for a reason.
Will he take up an import spot?

My initial post was said in jest, as I've said earlier.
My only problem with Cas is the Stadium and someone claiming they saw 2008 as a 'gap year'. The town has loyal fans who watched in numbers in 2005 and 2007, a good youth setup, etc.
I won't bother pointing out that you are going with the version of events from one singular journalist on that version of events.
Cas prove that they are on the way to a new stadium, they can see themselves as edging towards the likes of Warrington, Leeds, Hull FC, etc as those who are guaranteed a licence.

It doesnt matter if it comes from a Quins fan or your mum. Wakey and Cas are the two most vulnerable SL clubs. Deal with it.

There is nothing wrong with Cas's stadium, a great old fashioned RL ground, god help us if they are all replaced by souless JJB clones.

Erm, they owned us for a short period in the Crusaders days just before the Broncos take over...
Don't remember them giving us a big wedge of cash though.

Dorn has been a regular in the staring 13 this year. I am one of a number of fans that will be sad to see Dorn leave. And if indeed he does as predicted move on, I will thank him for his year at the club and wish him the very best next year.
By the way, what's happened to Hill? Is he off home?

I can understand why some of your fans would be concerned with a potential Dorn for Hill movement - Luke is a player i have long admired and he has done a good job for us this season (although his defence is highly suspect!).
The trouble with Dorn as a replacement is that he is a good individual but has limited organizational qualities - Hill on the other hand still looks like a world-class ball-player to me.
I'd have thought though that you'd put your faith in McDermott - if he does bring Dorn in i'm sure he'll balance things out elsewhere.
