Please explain why any other Club would get knocked back because Cas did?

Because they dont want to sell him???

Maybe your offer wasn't good enough?

maybe they didn't want to sell to a local rival?

How about Robert Hicks. He's fairly cheap, but very effective...

No logic in selling to a potential play off rival either

So the point is basically your opinion on matters?

The fact is, you personally have no idea why a Club would accept one offer over another. Making a claim that every Club should get the same response as Cas got is very naive.

So is assuming every player wilk want to go to salford and that every bid for players will be accepted

Wakefield have documented financial issues and selling their best player would possibly ease those worries,however they want to establish themselves as a top 8 playoff team,selling their best player to a rival wont make that happen

And yes this is all my opinion pretty much what fills these boards are peoples opinions

Thanks for those tasty morsels of insight you've provided.

I never stated or presumed every player will want to go to Salford. My personal beliefs are actually the opposite. It's fine to have opinions as long as you're prepared to have them challenged when they venture into 'patently stupid' territory. Your opinion was that because Cas got turned down by Wakey it was beyond your comprehension that another Club might get an offer accepted.

I'll apologize now on behalf of everyone else who's had to read this tripe for a page or so.

Before Castleford signed Rangi Chase from St,George, had you ever heard of him?, he was a total unknown, on the fringes of the NRL, not getting into the first team, then Cas took the punt & signed this unknown lad, who has played the best part of his carrier for Cas.
At Cas he has learnt his trade & turned into one of the hottest properties in our game, who knows Cas might invest in a new unknown youngster who does the job for us, only time will tell, but if Noble wants Chase to play to a structured game plan, he wont be getting the same player who's Maverick style makes him the great player he is.

I agree.

As a Salford fan, I've got to have faith that Noble knows what he's doing by going for him.

Come on, he was hardly 'Neville Nobody' when you guys signed him. He may have had baggage but people were aware of his talent. He already had 30-odd NRL games under his belt.

Fair play to Cas for having the foresight to pick him up but let's not mythologise too much.

let's find a happy medium then, he was a fringe player and St George wouldn't have sold him to cas if they were aware of his talent.

Noble for me isn't a superb coach - he certainly isn't getting much out of your players at the moment (though that may be for a number of other reasons)

it'll be interesting
