A block on the signing of overseas players for the next 10 years would be a sure fire way to get Cas in the top 8. This is why the club have no money , second rate Aussies on massive contracts , sucking the life out of Cas tigers.

Ryan Hudson is not a second rate Aussie on a massive contract
Nick Youngquest has been one of our better players this season and I doubt he's on a massive contract
What do you have against overseas players? If they improve what we currently have, I don't care if they come from the moon!!!

He has essentially the same squad that finished 9th last year with an injury count that went into the double digits and when it was fully fit was top 2 in the league so you can't blame the players for the coaches failings this year.

Gronk. I take it from your post you don't like Millward. But as a supporter of your club do you think any other S/L club would sign most of that team that played last night and I take my hat off to your club for having the courage to suspend your best player when every man and his dog know you are not very good without him ( at the moment anyway)

am a loyal supporter but what ive seen latley at cas even im getting fed up with this team.no 1 seems to care about the club or the FANS any more.the passion seem to have gone.some of our players are on big money but you would not think so.last night if id had been in on my own id have turned the TV OFF .a club of our standing should be doing better than this.fans will be turning away from watching cas as they wont pay to come through the tunstils to watch the crap we are playing week after week.lets get rid of players who dont WONT to play for CAS any more and lets get some players WHO do want to PULL A CAS SHIRT ON and play for the Club and for US THE FANS.

Youngquest, Thompson, Huby, Emmitt, Milner & Snitch would all get regular game time at most other teams in the league Ferres has supposedly somehow got himself a deal at Huddersfield, Williams got some playing time at Warrington. Orr would probably get into a few teams still too despite his age.

Add in Chase & Clark that's 11 players (9 who played last night) who you could see getting into more Super League teams than they wouldn't get into.

Snitch? Are you serious. I took you for a knowledgeable poster Gronk but Snitch is just a powder puff tackling, penalty conceding machine. Williams looks over-weight (especially after he got caught by Patrick Ah-Van) and Orr is aonly good for 20 minute spells.

Re: In my lifetime...... : Tue Jul 03, 2012 3:10 pm  

I cannot see most S/L clubs coming in for them except Milner. Huby been injured so give him time to get better again but come on If you say most clubs we will take Wigan ST Helen's and Warrington out and your saying the rest would be interested Lets face it from an outsider lookin in most of the players have not got a professional attitude and don't like been told what to do Millward will change that even if it means a full clear out and I can see it coming ( alot will depend and the clubs decision regarding chase outcome ). These some big changes coming in S/L stick together get better and dont give the RFL any excuse to move you

Surely there are better young local lads than some of the overseas players youv got. You may as well get shut and put some local lads in im sure they wouldnt do any worse

Who are our overseas players? McGoldrick has gone. Youngquest has been one of our better players (my god that is a worrying fact) & Grant Millington, that being said, he is atrocious, so i'll agree with you on that.

i believe hudson has a lot to offer and we could have done with him out there at times this year in the middle of our defence. I do understand he is on a big contract ......but not millwards doing.
Mcgoldrick & and chase must be taking up almost half of cas wage bill , hence small squad and when we get a few knocks we are screwed.
I have seen nothing from millington to suggest he his any better than most average english forwards , chubbs is better and massey is as effective as millington from what ive seen. Ryan boyle is doing a good job for salford and was solid in their win v wire the other night.
Younquest has pace but often doesnt deal with high kicks and his defence is poor. Jamie foster is out of favour at saints and would be a better option imo , he a goal kicker too and I bet he would be cheaper that younquest.
Nothing against overseas players , but i feel for a club in cas tigers position , ie we cant afford the top ones who have played international or origin, we should stay well clear as we do not get value for money.
