Heard this at the game on Sunday but dismissed it as rubbish. How wrong was I

He can't possibly chuck him into the centres on Sunday as a replacement for Collis.....Can he?

I am truly shocked by this signing. Gilmour was a good player in his day (about 2004) but has not played for 12 months having had several injuries......thought we'd have gone with Sykes and Wakshaw into centre? With Sammut and Godinet at 6 & 7? Looks like panic is setting in... A team of journeymen and 'has beens' developing where team understanding and development is stifled.

He could send Walshaw out on duel reg and play Gilmour there.

As cas are safe and the derby games are good for them financially can we not enquire about dual reg for Powell and orr?

Those two won't make any difference if Agar plays them out of position will they

All three would walk into todays team, plenty of bottle. I'd let Price and Norton work it out between them who would place loose forward, that would be more entertainment than we've seen at BV all season.

Gilmour always has given 100% during his career. I know he is the twilight of his career, but has played prop, 2nd row and centre over the last 5 years if memory serves me right. Could he be used in the centres to put Ryan back in the forwards? He will potentially bring experience and leadership that our lot dont seem to have at the moment.

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

So what if he has, it's not the 1970s any more, it common place in the modern game. It's a professional environment and it's his prerogative to go were he wants and quite frankly I don't blame him, especially after been moved to LF and Anderson getting the red carpet treatment as the priority signing. As long as Dan approaches the situation in a professional manor and shows commitment to the cause I don't see any reason for him been shipped out. For me he's certainly shown more grunt than our regular "no balls" starting props!

Just for info Gilmours last game for Cas was the 18th May last year.

Johnny Thompson has played a game since then....give him a shirt.
