Thought Wilson had just been made DoR.

Sounds like there’s some truth in this. An upgrade on Wilson for sure.

Could be a good move this. His record at Leigh is not too shabby.

If rumours are true and he is coming to us, I expect we'll be spending up to the cap and signing at least 1 marquee next year.

Otherwise Chester wouldn't come without being able to spend like he has at Leigh.

You can obviously see why he would be allowed to leave Leigh early. It would be a conflict of interest if he kept on being the DOR for Leigh knowing full well next year he’s recruiting players for Cas. Would be a weird position for both clubs going for player X and him being in charge of it.

A couple of outlets also claiming Chester himself has ruled out joining us.

I’d be really pleased if we could convince CC to come to Cas, but I can’t help feel we’re the smokescreen in this & he’ll end up somewhere else.
