Why would you assume that if we've lost Inu we'll just not bother recruiting anyone else? Random.

There is talk of Kirisome Auva'a, but doubt he would get a visa.



I'd love to sign hodges for a year.

Thing with Catalan is when everybody is fit there would be some decent players missing out so Inu would be a bit of a luxury signing for them. Unless of course any of the following are leaving.

Oldfield

Tonga

Cardace

Pomeroy

Gigot

Yaha

Duport

Pala.

Think they're well stocked with that lot.

Do you think Hodges would come half way round the world to sign a one year contract with a SL club even at 33?

Campese did.



Id give him a one year deal with another year as option if he plays so many games.

Benji isnt doing bad on his return.

Got the Dragons sitting two points off the top of the NRL.

Campese's a crip though, aint he.

Ben Crooks to Cas?

Inu's been in France a while now, he's living the lifestlyle. If he loved it that much he'd have signed for longer at Catalan. Only reason for not signing a longer deal is if he has something else lined up next year.

Visas are more relaxed to what they were n if I remember it wasn't a criminal conviction as such. Was on a good behavior order.

There'll be 2 back signings either way whoever they are

He's not being there a year yet but the lure of some of his mates/kiwis in France could be a big influence too as well as not having to move again so quickly. He apparently loves it there too from a quick sneak at his twitter page.



There's also a hint he might get into the Samoan Rugby union world cup squad but signing for Cats might call that into doubt.

Gutted if true...

I'd be disappointed, but with Radford still as coach I don't think he would come back here.



He is still under contract and was developed here, so we would be due a fee from Cas wouldn't we?

Want about a player from Castleford

His original contract was until the end of 2015. The clubs says....

Well, we've already signed one Tank ...

One good piece of news, is that we aren't appointing Bobbie Goulding, although he does seem to come with worlds biggest fan club.

My understanding is that Hull could retain his SL registration for the duration of his remaining contract. However, the club cannot retain the registration of a player whose contract has expired.

We should be entitled to a fee though as he is under a certain age and came through our academy.

Yes, either the clubs will agree a fee or a tribunal will decide. It is unlikely to be significant though, particularly as Hull allowed him to leave and he was not selected regularly before he left (I don't think). I also think Hull are only entitled to a fee if they offer him a contract equal or better his current salary, they are not entitled to a fee if they offer a lower salary or no contract at all.

Why? Its not like we tried hard to keep him is it? He got into the SL dream team then Radford took over and treat him like till he left.



Good luck to him at Cas. Now we'll see how good he really is under a decent coach

Nice sense of humour,saddo.

Because we are, as explained above my the Cas fan.



Still think he has a lot to work on, could go the same way as Hall though, but hope he doesn't. We should have kept him.

You can come on here & slate Ellis & pryce calling them finished. You need to move out of your glass house dessie boy.
