Quite a few on big money there i would have thought, and probably half a team to re-build.
Any confidence you will get a better calibre in to replace them?

Hopefully these 2 signings to be announced will indicate the calibre of player that we are aiming to bring in. Loads of money free'd up with the OOC players.

Out of those listed I can see maybe 3 at the most staying with Cas Tigers. We should bring in about 8 new signings to cover those leaving and as always bring a few young 'uns through.

Nick Youngquest (probably worth keeping), Joe Arundel (definitely worth keeping), Josh Griffin (has to go), Danny Orr (this already looks like a season too far), Brett Ferres (almost certain to move on), Steve Snitch (undecided), Stuart Jones (only if we can't find better), Ryan Hudson (no way!), Paul Jackson (keep if not too expensive), Ryan McGoldrick (only keep if willing to take a significant cut in salary), John Davies (give him a bit more time this year to decide), James Grehan (not even on amateur terms!) - all OOC.

I would like to see Shenton back, but not on silly money.

If Saints want rid, time to negotiate or leave alone. But beggars cant be choosers and Cas aint very atractive to most players nowadays

Re: good luck with this one : Thu May 24, 2012 2:19 pm  

Youngquest - looks like he's set on moving to New York next season
Arundel - Hull bound it seems
Griffin - not Super League standard
Orr - too old, time to move on
Ferres - Huddersfield bound apparently
Snitch - No thanks
Jones - No thanks
Hudson - Time to retire
Jackson - Time to retire
McGoldrick - Why is he even still at the club?
Davies - Needs a new contract, kid will be a beast
Grehan - Why was he even signed?

That's probably 500k on the salary cap - that's a lot to play with for say: Michael Shenton, Jake Webster, Matty Smith and some barnstorming south sea islander second rower then some squad players.

Owen
Clare
Shenton
Webster
Dixon
Chase
Smith
Huby
Milner
Emmitt
New signing
Holmes
New signing

Clark
Millington
Walker
Davies

£120k is a lot of dough, based on your ability to sign quality players this season.
Who is coming off contract?

As already stated.

Don't think we'll pay Shenton £120k, though, either.
