Or a bit of mischief to unsettle one of our lads

Or just a bit of rumour on t'internet

I bet you anything this all came from that thread on the VT when Cas lost to saints and I think a Cas fan said something about loaning Golding from Leeds and Vasty said Jowitt's a better player and it went on from there. I said at the time I doubt we'd lend him out to a rival and what happens if Grix goes down.

Does seem to be my doing, I'm rather proud of it tbh even if it wasn't intentional. Seems odd how they all hate me but take what I say that seriously.

Vastman - when you're not spouting pure hatred and bile about Cas, you talk a lot of sense. You obviously know the game well and are passionate about it. If you tell me Max Jowitt is a superior player to the players I mentioned (Golding and Evalds) ; I'll believe what you say. I am desperate for us to get a FB because I don't believe Roberts has the mental or physical capacity to play there. However, I don't think Powell will give up on him after 1 week. There might be more substance us coming after a FB if we get humbled by Widnes though.

As for us not sending anyone decent your way, didn't Scott Moore and Tansey have really good games in the MPG ? Even if their spells with you overall weren't great, that game alone made their spells at least worth while . As for Owen, well you've got 2 bloody good wingers now and that's just how it goes

It's no different to us taking Dean Hadley on loan after one game last season, when we had no injuries in the S/R, and the likes of Annakin, Crowther etc were no doubt chomping at the bit to get a game, yet we take someone on loan, purely for Hull's benefit of probably getting under the salary cap?! I wouldn't want Jowitt to benefit any other SL team, but that's me being selfish, personally for him any move would be good, he needs to be playing week in week out.

Scott Moore went well with us when he wasn't serving one of his many bans but, Tansey, really ??="Towns8

Really would anybody be worried about Jowitt going to another RL side ? i think it woukd be good for us Jowitt wouldn't have been able to tackle Owen let alone someone the size of Pauli pauli. lets face it he's probably played full back all his life & he still can't tackle I don't think he's a SL player great attacker but as JK said last night a full back has to be a good attacker but most of all he's the last line of the defence so it's very important to be able to tackle. I haven't seen him tackle anybody in outfield but loads behind the line. Let him go.

I know the family well and find it very annoying to read such crap about a lad, who in my eyes, has never let us down. Even world class FBs miss tackles just like other players Max will be a SL FB and hopefully with Wakey.

Agree he never did let us down at all, even for someone with no S experience when he came into the side and the age hen was/is. I also watched him do plenty of tackling for us when needed, so I'm not sure what the poster is talking about and like you say even Slater has made many mistakes.
ATEOTD though he was brought into our side in the 2016 season as an 18-year-old, which I think is the important bit and won rookie of the year, so he can't have been that bad by any definition. Anyone that's watched rugby for any length of time can see the talent the kid has got. He didn't feature much last year because of the form of Grix but imo the post you replied to is rubbish from start to finish. Opinions hey.

he needs super league game time though to keep his development going - in my opinion he is not going to keep improving playing in the championship or reserve grade.

in saying that though we are 1 injury away from him playing the rest of the season for us..
