Well deserved Jacques - now let’s see if he gets a game more often - he’d be in the 17 every week for me

We've gotta give this young bloke some game time. He's not frightened of tackling anyone and he is a definite replacement for when Macca decides to step back. Until then he should be in every game 17 . To top it off he's a cracking young bloke from a cracking family from up in Cumbria, and they come to watch him all the time.

Pretty much unanimous the lad seems to have talent and enthusiasm.
Let's hope he has the opportunity to shine in a Cas Jersey

I think a lot of contracts are only been done to 2021, so clubs can see what TV deal is in place for 2022 and beyond.

I like him.

Could be a 9 or 13.
Always gives 100%, unlike a few regulars I could mention.

An avid Cas fan.

In other seasons he'd be on a 2 or 3 yr deal.
I remember Peter Small

Reminds me of Chris Watson back in the Nineties. Although he was older, Watson was thought of highly by Van de Velde , played in semifinal win over St. Helens but missed out in final, (was in Methley Park) having tonsils removed. When John Joyner replaced Daryl, there was a clash of personalities and he was shown the door. But he would tackle anything in his sights, just like young O Neill, hope this lad makes it.

He will be gone in 2022 if that's all he gets
