Did we get him on a two year deal ? Is there an extension clause ? He's someone who I'd be happy to see tied to a long deal. But if he only decided to see his existing deal out and return to the NRL he'd go with my thanks & very best wishes. But that's a long way off yet, we've got plenty of bosh to look forward to first.

Interesting list, that, thank you. As other have said, Cas, with Chase in reserve, probably the best, but not really a solid standout. Leuluai needed surgery on a jaw fracture I think, so might impact his pre season.

I scribbled them down pretty quickly, not sure on the extent of his injury. Maybe Tomkins to drop into the halves and Escare/Tierney at FB? Or Shorrocks, as he got some game time and did alright last year.
I completely forgot about Chase at Cas as Wilde pointed out .
But yeh, providing 2015 Kelly turns up, it's a decent pairing.

On paper they look a real danger, Solomona will be a loss, but have Shenton back.
Hooker they've got Milner and McShane. I reckon we'll see Hardaker in the centres with Shenton, as Powell prefers a FB that can pass a ball. Some great options at Cas though, pity they're losing Solomona, but I think I'd have scored at least 20 on that wing given the great service he got
