Very poor if true. Need proven quality. He had been shipped on everywhere he has been.
Fortunately it's a Callum Walker story so we can put it to bed.

He was a cas lad who moved to Warrington and then To Leeds and now back home after learning his trait on someone else’s dime . Good move. No disrespect but he’s probably better than someone we have and has the local lad mentality to notch up a level or 3?

Sorry I may have got it wrong I thought they signed him from our academy. Must have been someone else

Maybe you're thinking of Louis Johnson who went to wire for a fee without playing first team for us, now at KR?

We got a fee for Johnson amd McClelland without either playing a game which great business.

O’Brien is better than the pair of them.. Trueman is most overrated player and poor Richardson is a scapegoat and he’s the blue eyed boy.. once again on the big stage he was no where to be seen. Cas need to find a more experienced half back from somewhere to play with O’Brien.. this is my opinion others may not agree

Spot on. Still don’t get all the hype apart Trueman. Can’t use the “he’s still young” line forever. If the money being discussed was correct, I would have taken it.

Be happy with this was unhappy when he went was more unhappy we did put a clause in for him if he returned to league. Give him game time get him in now and I think it could work. He’s eager to play and has confidence when given a chance could be a good move for both

Irrespective we normally keep people for too long and then offload. Good business if he.can progress and come back and be a good squad player

Never really seen him play. How does he compare with how Tom Holmes would contribute - hypothetically.

Hypothetically for me he is similar younger not afraid to go at the line and his kicking game was strong coming through the academy and has a nice short kicking game. Had a couple of years now around Gale, had a winning attitude probably one of the better young British half’s coming through. I know the game isn’t rife with them. Add in radford as coach next year to give him some added drive and niggle might just be a diamond but there’s always potential he could never reach the top like Richardson but for me it could be good business.

He's certainly a cheaper option, local lad and all that. 4th choice at best for me. We need a good player to challenge truey and gob.

Personally I can't see Radford being swayed to an ex junior. He must be given carte blanche to do his own stuff. It's what we've needed for years

My biggest worry is that it’s felt like our spine other than McShane and Richardson have been made of glass this season . Unless McLelland is coming straight in and is ready to go, loaning Richardson out now feels like a very high risk strategy to me.

New signing

Post by Blackbulltiger » 21 Jul 2021, 10:17

Cas tigers set to sign Leeds rhinos play maker to replace Richardson. Think its lad that started at cas academy then went to Edinburgh Rugby Union then to Leeds rhinos but being on loan at Fev. Thoughts please not now alot about his recent form.

In think we've taken precautions with players as it's been all out challenge cup or nothing. I expect a big change now.
