Seen some Cas fans turn their nose up at Savelio, he would be their best forward.

Re: Shopping list for 2024 : Fri Jun 02, 2023 12:43 pm  

Have we actually had any links to blore or are people just assuming, it does add up though.

Ashworth not in the Hudds 21 either. If we could get those two in over the few weeks and reintegrate Savelio we’d be an entirely different proposition. The question if if we have the cap space. I reckon we do.

We had some wiggle room and evans is gone.

-Blore
- Pele (don’t know how true the link is)
- Ashworth
-Tindall
- Aus hooker
- Keep a fit and motivated Savelio
- some how keep swift.

Id certainly be content with our recruitment/retention. Think no matter what keeping Balmforth, Houghton & Tag are a must now. Id also be looking at getting a cheap Josh griffin.

If Savelio goes do we risk Bentley. I think we’d have to

Bentley is crap and a walking suspension, I'd rather play Staveley.

Re: Shopping list for 2024 : Fri Jun 02, 2023 2:26 pm  

I hope we steer well clear of Bentley .

Re: Shopping list for 2024 : Fri Jun 02, 2023 2:35 pm  

Bentley would be a poor signing. Terrible discipline and not even that good anyway

Bentley is so far away from the culture and attitude that Smith is trying to create and is a complete liability on and off the field hence why both St's and Leeds didn't want to extend deals with him.

Hasn't TS put the Pele rumour to bed?
Swift is leaving and Houghton i think will get another year( cue the meltdown)
i think the ball is in Savelio's court now as to wheter he stay's or goes. Been given a lifeline by TS.

I like this quote from TS that he has used a couple of times.

“Sometimes things get done and sat on for a while."

Would seem to suggest we have a signing (or two) tied up and will announce when the timing is right.

Pele is an old rumour which seems to have run it’s course?

The man is renowned for talking in riddles. Nothing that he can later be pinned down on is his way of dealing with things.

I'd sooner a man talked in riddles than one who talks nothing but rubbish, such as you and your cronies.
