Good luck Callum - Welcome to Cas. We have a good record with London players, hopefully this will work out well for all.

Don't know anything about him, but the club and coaching staff, are having a fine record with developing and coming up trumps with players that escape the net or who on first impressions don't look like anything above the ordinary. That's a sign of good coaching. Welcome Callum and the very best of luck.

Hopefully proves to be worth a contract as cover for Shenny/Webbo.

Much prefer an out and out centre in there rather than shifting Minikin to centre like at headingley.

And as has been said we have a habit for devloping youngsters, could be a great move by both parties.

It is, but i think all would agree you lose something moving him to centre he's adapted more to that right flank for me to say he's pretty now a natural winger. Just my opinion of course.

Thought so myself.
He's massive and stands out a mile.
Nice project for DP there.

he looks the part but i wonder why london released him?
The 20-year-old was released by the Broncos earlier this week and has linked up with the Betfred Super League leaders in an attempt to land a contract.

He's a forward nor a centre. He's said himself London just never updated his profile. Hopefully a future hard hiting prop

I really rate this young man.

Saw him in action v Leeds U19's last season.

First 30 mins London were well on top and he really impressed me.

London must be really stupid to let him go.

He will be in good hands with John Kear at the Bulls.
