| Id guess he's a 'work in progress' type of signing. If Chester feels he'll fit in with the ethos of the club though, I'm happy to welcome him (should he actually come)

| When playing Cas he's not a player you fear or expect to do much more than the basics. Very lightweight. Can't really see it to be honest.

| I disagree. I thought he looked dangerous when we played them.
He dents a defence as well as anyone.

| At least Moore, Tansey and Owen had some history of success behind them. This guy has really never been more than a potentially good player, one of Cas's flops I suppose?

I agree but then Wallo seems to watch a different game to most of us but opinions differ.
However to call him lightweight is plain stupid - he's 6'2'' and just shy of 18 stone - when exactly did that become lightweight.
Frankly I wasn't bothered about this lad either way but if our two resident in-experts don't rate him I can't wait for us to sign him!

Didn't say anything against Wood feel free to look back. Grix I'm not a fan of never have been and never will. But at least these two aren't nutcases off the pitch.

Watch Tansey in million pound game v Bradford. Massive contribution.

| Springer is a French International isn't he, so would surely take up a quota spot.
The question I would ask, is he worth that quota spot, as I would play England, Huby, Fifita and Hirst in front of him.
Is it worth having the quota spot sitting in the stands most weeks?

My opinion FWIW is yes. Because he's a known quantity rather than a highlight DVD. Wether you rate him or not is as I say opinion but if you do he's not a gamble - most of us have seen him in the flesh at least half a dozen times - you can't say that for most NRL imports.

I have a feeling you did but really can I be bothered to find out - no.
What you are suggesting is that Cas have palmed us off with some rubbish - really - so nobody knew Tansey's flaws as a player or Moore's criminality or Owens demons did they? Cas held a gun to our heads and told us to take these players. I can't stand Cas but you might as well go the whole hog and blame them for global warming!
It's been a mixed bag but all three of those players did their bit - Moore in particular on the field. Either way we should have known what they were, so either you're suggesting the club is staffed by stupid people who don't know whats happening in the wider world or people who are easily bullied - seriously?

French players don’t count on the quota.
Anyway i think MC denied this on twitter a couple of nights back.

He also told us Tyler Randal's signing was an "urban myth".
