He played great at fullback and I'm a well known liar...

Lol. We started negotiating with GOB months ago, it was him and his agent that made it clear he wanted to stay here if Toronto ended up going south. This was knowing Evalds was on his way as #1, that's how settled he's felt since he's been with us.

As for Hastings, Huddersfield have marquee signing Sezer in that position. Not a chance will they disrupt him.

Thanks for clarifying that it isn’t confirmed he’s leaving, just reported.

I doubt Wigan are wanting rid of Hastings. Seems like they're going back to how they were with Tomkins and Escare. 2 good fullback/half backs that can swap around and give them a strong attack. That doesn't really threaten Hastings' position

Hastings has signed a new deal with Wigan today.
That him and French who have signed new deals, a marquee player in Burgess and Bateman on his way back next season.
Producing their own youngsters certainly saves them a lot of money on the salary cap to enable them to sign so many top players.

I know he is from that area? Are we that Skint we would consider a fee for a player who has yet to play a game? Is this why we done a deal for o brien?
So where is this been reported then ?????

He said in since Woodford left but I can’t find any reports to back up these claims. I think this poster could be frainthepain under a new guise since his last was banned.

Evalds is a Cas player 100%. Him and his partner are currently looking for an house with a well known estate agent around this part. Really looking forward to seeing him in 2021.

So, he played centre “a couple of times”. In between being injured, it’s no surprise I couldn’t recall. Also, what did having the #1 jersey prove apart from the fact he was a terrible full back? You find me one Cas fan who says Ben Roberts played well for Cas anywhere other than at stand off and I’ll show you a liar...
To be fair, he played well at full back in the stand in games a few seasons before.

It was only the permanent switch that it didn't go so well.

He's played well at fullback in the NRL as well he just didn't want to play full-back in 2018
I can remember that first game at St Helens in 2018 thinking wtf we done here

My take was that he put his hand up to play there when no one else wanted it.

He should be looking to get in that World Cup team suppose Tompkins is first choice rightly so I'd pick Evalds myself and that was before he came to Cas in case anybody thinks I'm biased

He’s got a really good chance. Lomax is now established as a half back and Hardaker will have played centre for two seasons before the World Cup. I don’t see Wane selecting players out of position like Bennett did, so I think that leaves Tomkins and Evalds.
I think Tomkins is ahead of Evalds at the moment, but it’s close. If Evalds has a very good season and Tomkins’ firm drops, he’ll have a good claim to that full-back spot come the start of the World Cup.
