What a cracking signing he was, up there with Brendan Hlad (remember him?!)

Re: Jimmy Grehan : Tue Jun 05, 2012 3:53 pm  

I hope we (Batley) can keep him until the end of the season, as he's done a pretty decent job for us. However, whoever deemed him worthy of a SL contract must have been on some kind of mind-altering drug at the time.

I believe that would be Ian Millward, who also deemed Steve Nash good enough for Super League (he's now back at Leigh on loan, unless his time there has finished).

He was recommended to the club by Dale Fritz and Cas offered him a deal to see what he could do. It was never made as a major signing - more a let's see what you can do contract.

From his Twitter feed, my impression he's leaving for Aus today.

If only we had players like him in the team now!

The Nash signing was very strange. I'd seen him play on numerous occasions and was staggered when Millward took him to Cas. He was very, very average at Championship level.

Millward is signing another of his Leigh lads next season. Jamie Ellis from Hull. He is an overweight scrum half who is out of his depth in Super league. Infact a bit like Millward.
