I'd give Cas 18 months before it goes belly up like Chase, Hardaker and the rest.

I don't see that as a big issue.
It's only like having a top player from Oz come over for let's say 12 games.
The only difference is you are not sure when the end date is.
The trick is to get the value while its there and get rid at the right time.

Some players suit some clubs so who knows.

However can't help but think Powell fancies himself as some kind of player whisperer like Kear but I don't think he is. He failed with Chase and Hardaker and a few others. Think he's trying to prove a point that he doesn't need to prove and it might be his undoing which would be a shame tbh. But as I say it may prove to be inspired.

Powell has actually surprised me in his time at Cas, for some reason i always had this opinion of him that he was a no BS kind of coach and would get rid at the first sign of trouble.. Obviously i was a far way out with that.

Significant fee believed to be close to £100,000? Wow, didn`t see that bit.

1. I would not pay 100k for him anyway regardless of his off field inconsistencies
2. Does this not ring any bells to Castleford as a club?
3. Hull must be laughing there way to the bank!!

Am i right in saying his ban is up just in time for him to make his debut against us?

Watts v Fifita, ha ha.

Odds on Watts seeing red again during the Wakefield game?

I would stand by saying he's one of the best props in the SL at the moment... Averaged 25 games per season at FC. I don't see everyones issue?

I'd take him everyday of the week

Getting his dad to fight his corner Pointing the finger at the club and other players and the coach/management

Sounds so similar to Hardaker. When at Leeds we had the same on the Leeds boards with friends of his defending him and pointing the finger at the club and other players and seen the same on the Wigan board now with a friend of his blaming the Cas club and Powell and making excuses for him.

Fortunately for us, MC's in charge not you.

Forrest Gump is alive and well.
