Egodo

Post by heritage1926 » 13 Aug 2019, 13:09

Castleford Tigers can confirm that Tuoyo Egodo will leave the club at the end of the 2019 season.

The winger has scored nine tries in 15 first team appearances for the Tigers but will now join Cas teammate Cory Aston in making the move to London Broncos from next year.

The London-born player previously came through the academy ranks at the Broncos before joining the Tigers and he will now return to his former club.

He said: “I’d like to say thanks to the coaches, players and staff at Castleford who I have learnt a lot from and have helped me become the player I am today.

“I would also like to say a big thank you to the Castleford fans for their continuous support over the years.”

Finally getting a chance but ultimately the right choice for both parties.

I still think we might regret letting him go but still does make a lot of errors so it is what it is ... anyway good luck to him in the future can see him doing well at London next season

Good luck he seems a genuinely nice lad but I do think it’s the right move for both club and player

Unfortunately, I do think its the right choice for both club and player. He has all the physical attributes but his skill set is so lacking that a Super League side pushing for top 4/5 can't really afford a player without the basic skills of a rugby league player. Maybe if the reserves had have been confirmed a couple of months earlier there could have been a chance of him stopping, but I wish him all the best for the future.

Sneaked a couple of extra tries gate an.
Like many on here always wanted him to come good as he does acert his physical presence.
Has shown potential unfortunately we cannot afford the luxury of seeing if that potential will fulfilled.
Thanks for your endeavours son and having the courage to follow your dreams.
Good luck for the future and l hope you make it.

Good riddance for me personally. Costs us too many tries and errors when he’s played . Hope he has a good career

So, using that analogy, we are soon to get rid of Greg Eden?

thats the way i was i was thinking the lad like Eden as made a few clangers but the lad as scored some good trys using his strength, Eden when Luke was on the field like Solomona looked shear class without Luke over the last two years Eden as looked like a mill of the run winger, i dont know the statistics but in a ratio of games played over the last two years i would think Egodo comes out on top comparing the two

Let's be honest though.... As it stands next year I wouldn't play Eden or Egodo. For me Clare is out playing both and if he stays, should play with Feki.

Eden solomona and even carney made plenty of clangers but all 3 also scored a lot of tries from nothing, Egodo for me makes the same errors but the tries he gets are usually put on a plate for him like clares are.

Your right mate Solomona didn't make mistakes his defence was sound ...only negative he had was he didn't make any yards from the play the ball

Isn't he anonymous, playing an anonymous club game for a team no-one cares about? Club RU is worse supported than RL week in week out.
Actually believe, in the fullness of time he will rue the day, but that dish is only served cold. Who in his current code has heard of him or recognises him?

Watched him at the Ricoh last season against wasps and the Sale fans were checking his name against the program.

Luke Gale: Making wingers look good since 2015. Including Solomona.

bang on with that mate any winger worth his salt would have been scoring trys for fun with the service Luke gave them when he was top of his form, to me a good winger can sometimes make at try out of nothing like the two at Saints do
