A Cas fan at work just commented " I hear we're getting Jowitt".
Would do him good to get some Super League game time. I expect Cas to be Top 4 with or without him.

I get and don’t doubt that Hooley has great potential but I thought he struggled in the Boxing Day fixture a little. I wouldn’t be confident of him filling Grix or even Jowitts boots just yet.

We will not be a top 4 side this year without a genuine full back of good quality .

If Cas are prepared to pay MJ wages and maybe throw Wakefield a few quid , it's a winner all round. If Jowitt is a good player its a crying shame for him to miss out on first team rugby at this level if he is up to it.

And if trusted members of this site say he's a good player then I'm not gunna argue. Plus a bit of coaching from Powell won't do him any harm.

Agreed.
No doubting his potential and he acquitted himself really well in pre season but, right now, he's still a little way behind Jowitt and IF Chester can give Jowitt some game time, it would help both players.
Ideally, you would want a seamless change whenever Jowitt comes in and if Grix was to stay fit all season, he would be knackered when the business end of the season comes around and we're all dreaming of being involved in some big games later in the year

Wouldn't Mind him going there if the terms are right and they suit us.

an initial months loan with option to extend on a rolling contract, with an option for wakey to call back when required.

will keep jowitt sharp and like others say, fingers crossed we are around when the trophies are being handed out, we have two full backs who have played regular rugby.

(highly unlikely but hey-ho)

Wouldnt want him to go to cas but he does need game time so as long as the deal is good for us i guess it can only be of benifit to the club.i see people go on bout if grix gets injured and the name hooley pops up well we have another player who can and wants to play FB in hampshire.with randall back in 3 to 4 week or so i think he would then be cover for scott at fb

Again why would we want to do anything that assists one of our SL rivals. Jowitt playing for another SL side could have a massive effect on us, what happens if we lose out on points difference on a league position because of the points saved by Jowitt. Its a no brainer , if he has to go on loan then only to a club in a different division.

BJB has also covered full back

do keep up lad

Not happening! Thank god! #anywherebutcas

I find this quite amusing if true. Its not that long ago when we were struggling to survive and Cas were only too happy to send a bit of dross our way. When we questioned the quality of their fringe player clearouts, their condescending supporters used to say although they were not good enough for them, but they were good enough for us.

In my opinion, we are only one game into the season and its too early to be off loading players. If we need game time for some guys, Cas is the last club I would send anyone to. They never have, and never will, do us a favour so Borlocks to them.

Cas have more options yet before they need to bring in a player who can't get into our team.
Just rumour for the sake of it.
