I’d say Powell like players that play, a bit like Tony Smith. Now Powell at Cas in recent times he has lost a lot of these players. When he rocks up at Wire I’d like to think Powell has some very good link players who play, and will create opportunities for others.



Just had a look at squad numbers, since he took over 2014, he had Nathan massey in the 13 shirt till 2017 which been Adam Miller.

Milner as mentioned a converted hooker, massey to my recollection is a back row, edge type, not a ball player as I recall.

Mind if they went with 3 props, they probably had Millington has a passer/offloaded

Checking Checking team sheets might take a while, I've just found I've been banned by cas twitter account

Re: Chris Hill : Fri Sep 10, 2021 10:09 pm  
Reyt, in 2014 powells first season in charge, with minimal recruitment
At loose forward he started
Grant millington 19 times
Nathan massey 11 times
Scott wheeldon 3 times (a prop)
And lee jewitt 1 time (back rower)

Half of masseys starts came around wembley time when millington was out injured, back end of the summer

2015
Nathan massey 19 starts at lf.
Gadwin springer 2 starts (prop backrower)
Scott wheeldon/Lee jewitt/matt Cook 1 start a piece.

Grant millington is getting named in the front row exclusively at this point

2016
Nathan massey 18 starts
Lee jewitt 5
Junior moors 2

I shall keep going, but at the moment the evidence isn't suggesting a ball playing loose forward, to my mind he's been in favour of six, seven and the fullback being his creative hub

I can't see Ashton staying if he hasn't already signed really. Same goes for Jason Clark.


I've changed my mind on this now it seems hill and sita announcements were made so they got a good send off at today's match along with the rest of the players and coaches who are announced as leaving. Surely they would have done the same for Ashton and Clark if they were going? Unless they are yet to decide themselves about a contract which is on offer to them?

So a prop at 35 36 years old is going to give you two good years. No sorry I don’t see it. Let’s go spend that wage cap on a prop


Chris is 33 and will be 35 at the end of a 2 year contract so no issue for me given the guys quality, fitness and general his proven ability to stay injury free.

Giving him one at 35 would more likely be.

Re: Chris Hill : Sun Sep 12, 2021 3:24 pm  
These departures are probably driven by the salary cap biting.

When players like Toby King and Currie were due for new deals, fans said "we have to sign him up, it would be crazy to lose him"
When George Williams became available everybody was excited that we landed him.

At that time they aren't thinking of the flipside at the other end, where we have to release players or reduce our ability to compete with rival clubs that are also offering them deals.

Chris Hill has just confirmed on Radio Manchester that Warrington offered him a 1 year deal, but he turned it down in favour of the 2 year deal that he signed for Huddersfield.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.
