Don't know if we're still looking or got the money for a prop to partner wattsy ...if not I'd go

Wattsy Macca Massey Holmes or Jesse new player to replace MM Oneill

Milner Milo Smith Holmes or Jesse
If we get the right man to place MM be a decent pack for mine

Millington has been doing a sterling job for many a year now and seeing him play this season is still in my estimation as still being one of our better forwards - he is difficult to bring down and mostly makes yards from his first contact with defense against him.

He was struggling a little towards the end of last season admitted but I would put that down to nagging injuries at the time which was slowing him down which I perceive however, he is 33 years old and has a couple of seasons left in him and has re-captured some of his spark, so, let's give the guy as much support as he has done for the club with some past great performances and not really had many bad games (like some Cas forwards have !) as it is obvious he loves being with Cas as a club and Cas as a place generally - and that is saying something !!

You sometimes have to think that some players wear their heart on their sleeve for the club and that is something that's worth a lot to have and beneficially comes along from time to time - Millo is one of these !

Pleased for Millo that we get to see him stick around and let's be fair, he deserves a better send off than would be given this year.

However, he absolutely cannot be our first choice prop next season or to be pushed to do 50 or 60 mins each week. We need another prop and use Millo off the bench to spell players and add some experience.
In the spirit of the final Blackadder episode - Goooodbyeee!
