I'm sure that if we sign him our medical team will be able to fully decontaminate him
I thought it seemed weird too, even weirder when Eseh came on against St Helens.

| Quote: vastman "Part of it, but not the only reason. Appleyard definitely wanted Dagger, that's certainly the main reason, I wouldn't argue with that. Whether people like it or not Dagger was actually the best signing Mash ever made, and if we had of stopped up, he'd have been far more instrumental in our survival than Hall. The team did improve on his arrival as far as I'm concerned. We actually didn't want to lose Hall if we could avoid it, but we simply couldn't afford to sign Dagger and pay a fee, so a player swap was our only option, and Hall was one of the players they were willing to take, they had us over a barrel. Part of the justification for Hall was the head issue he supposedly had at the time, and it was a position we could cover better than FB, where we were really struggling. People can blame Mash and Carter all they like, but there were very few options at the time.'"
Yeah, it's what I said earlier. Hull KR had made enquiries about Hall at the start of the season I think it was, so the club knew that was the only real asset they could use to potentially make a deal for Dagger. Unfortunately, we were a skint club and we had no other choice at the time, but like you say even though we lost a prospect, Dagger really did come through for us.

| Know it's a quota spot, but Leigh are not renewing Ricky Leutele contract for some reason.

Good for Leigh but if we had a quota spot I wouldn’t be wasting it on a soon to be 35 year old centre whose current team isn’t interested in keeping. One who I think only a time ago had an injury that kept him out a while I read. No thanks. The few times I’ve seen him this year he’s been ok but not great. Rather keep Thornley another year.
If we end up with a spot there would be much younger and better players to consider. But again, we don’t have a quota spot for 2025.

Didn't realise he was that age, so it's a pass for me too.

Don't think we need to worry about centres. As far as I'm concerned Pratt is a future international, whilst Joe Law has a brilliant attitude and is already a decent player, whilst Thornley has another SL year left in him and with the return of Hall, that's sorted for me.

You can add Cam Scott to the list as well as I am told he has signed a 3 year deal.

| Can Scott is certainly a talent and I've seen him play both left and right centre which mot everyone can do.
It would be good Pratt and Hall covering left with Scott and Thornley covering right.
Not sure where that leaves Croft though.

| There is a rumour doing the rounds that we have offered Tex Hoy a contract for next year, I`m not sure where he fits into the team and obviously there is some moving around to do with the quota spots anyway, but it`s the first time I've heard this one.

| The Cas forum seems convinced we are in talks to sign Tex Hoy, which makes no sense, one because we have no quota and 2 we don't need to sign an Aussieto cover Max.

| He's definitely improved the Castleford outfit and massively picked up on form compared to his Hull FC stint but not sure he's worth the quota spot with us already having a proven Super League fullback.
Unless there are other plans, I know both players have played a little bit of five eight previously. Perhaps things aren't so solid with bringing Russell in?

We need to stop talking about the quota spots like they are the ultimate blocker, if the club wants to sign a quota player for SL next year, they will make room on the quota. I honestly can`t see us keeping hold of the likes of Bain when he is likely 5th or 6th choice front row.
