You forgot Whiting, Sharp,Aspinwall etc the club havent offered them new deals yet so maybe they will not perform this year.

Its the future no wonder Wigan didn't win the grand final last year as they let Mcquire continue coaching the side.

I,m disappointed that he is leaving but I wish him all the best.

Thats the point thou. It looks like Turner is going and we need to give first preference to players that are committed to the club. It never did Briscoe any harm when he first came onto the scene in superleague as a raw young kid and it never did Crooks any harm last week against the champions. Its a team game and by all means use Turner in the squad, but only as cover.

After the first few posts from Cas fans on their forum. I know fans always change their view on players when there rumoured to be leaving, but they don't seem that bothered if he were to leave. Apparently he's got speed but not much else to be a strike centre and also a liability in defence.
Hopefully due to his age he will continue to improve each season.

Pretty sure that is an area that Gentle will be able to improve as he has with Turner & Sharp.

I've always liked the look of Makinson at Saints he could be used as good cover for the centres and wingers. Surely with Turner buggering off to Sin tellins. It would make you think that they haven't got anyone ready to be a first choice centre in their academy. Now I know Makinson isn't a stand out player but he's still young and abit of flair to his game. He would be good cover.

He should leave now otherwise let him rot and play crookes or grandad martin in the centre!!

Why would we let him leave now when it would allow Saints to be stronger and we will need everybody available again throughout the rest of the season.

I'm happy for Crooks (no 'e') to get another handful of games under his belt but I would bring him in slowly. We don't need to throw him in at the deep end. Imagine what Hull fans would be like if he turns out to have bad games for the rest of the season due to over playing him!!!

Maybe that's why he keeps saying he's undecided , judging by most opinions on here . Maybe scared of fans opinion of him . What if he was out of form , would people still want him or even hull . It's a short career . What would people think if the ooc players not offered new deals refused to play , saying they didn't want to get injured so they could get new clubs . Leave the kid alone and just play our strongest team till the season finishes .

Will he be going to replace Shenton or Wheeler, Shenton looks awful these days but I like the look of Wheeler (who is OOC).

Saints look really weak in the front row, all of there props are avearge IMO, I would have strengthen there before signing another backrow forward were they are pretty strong,

Wonder if next season Clarkey will say that Saints should be embaressed 'cos they can't bring through talent and have to sign players from Hull..fooking doubt it somehow..

Disappointed that Turner has decided to move on just as he was showing some real promise but would still be my starting 13 on current form.

Can't believe some fans still think he should be dropped! Again, why not drop Moa, Manu, Martin and O'Meley too?

Fans want to weaken the side for some reason. Apparently they think bringing through youngsters means throwing them in at the deep end before they're ready. Crooks has had a couple of good games. Let's use him wisely and not over do it. Turner is still a better present and should be played.

most players move on,i just dont see st helens pulling up any trees on current form and think some of their targets are thinking saints are still as good as they were a few years ago.and they arent.
have to wonder why these players want to leave us though as we have been progressing this season.
on the bright side it is freeing up cap space, i just hope we use it well
