The place is rotten, the shout for in house testing is a fantastic one and will send a clear message we have zero tolerance and if the players don't like it, dont let the door hit ya on the way out. But as happens all too often, a weak statement will be released, weather the storm then onto the next calamity.
Time to get a grip as once again we are going to fall from the brink of greatness to obscurity from poor leadership.
The place is rotten? Overreaction much?
Lo incident has nothing to do with leadership within the club.
As for the drug issues across RL, that is a governing body/cultural issue within the sport, not Cas Tigers alone.

Callum walker you need to step back a little pal, you have your own thread, if anyone is interested in your articles they know where to find them.
Dixie your post is over the top but I do feel your frustration, this with lo needs to be treated as a freak incident, nothing to do with team culture, the failed drugs test rumour would seriously worry me alot more because that would indicate a problem with team culture.
I know we had a great year last season but the damage of signing Zak hardaker could end up being irreversible if we're not careful, what worries me is that the players feel it acceptable to publicly pose with a guy who literally ruined our finest season. I think this rubs salt into the wounds of some of our fans.

I'm not assuming Gary lo is guilty by the way! I know it's all ifs and buts!

You do more harm than good giving things like this more coverage.
Maybe it’s time you kept your “articles” to yourself

Yo can get a cream to get rid of an itchy rash but unfortunately you can't get a cream to remove some of the idiots who post on this forum.

I’m sure I heard that Greg Eden was at the family evening event last night and that his mother has refuted any drug test failure claims which are doing the rounds!! Does this now put this rubbish to bed !!!

Find it quite irritating that you’d use this as an opportunity to write another article and flog it on the forum

I disagree.

Yes I think it's fair to say that the greg Eden rumour is bs! I'm glad that it looks like I have been told a few porkies! Lol good job too because we are missing Greg big time at the minute, we currently have no pace in the team!!!

You have summed up the public position pretty well. Perhaps though you could have mentioned that it is NOT just Cas that has the occasional problem with players' behaviour.

Look at the few weeks that Hull FC have had, Getting rid of their best prop and then their star play is filmed completely out of his box, abusing people. And, to compound his felony he was in a Mcdonalds!!!!!

Decent read though.

As we are reliant on pure speculation over the Gary Incident it's hard to make accurate comments but how on earth can the Club control the type of behavior being alleged.

I'm pretty sure the Club certainly are not advising players that that type of behavior is acceptable.

Nothing more than coincidence...

Do you really believe that clubs don't do in house tests? The problem is that things are kept quiet for obvious reasons.

Well Callum I think you are the spokesperson for Cas fans your not.
No it never been dull being a Cas fan but Ten points clear LLS Winners is not a wrong reason .
Just listening to the Sky team drooling over the drug cheat Ben Barba going to win tonights MOM
Touted to be MOS.Would be a very poor message.
Callum do you have journalistic qualifications?other than on here and forums have you anything in print.
Some of your articles are interesting but as you have been asked before stop proliferating all over the forum.

what gets me about all this is football. there are far more pro football clubs than rugby league. the players are on incredible money to spend on what they want but we never hear of them failing drug tests.
