What if he's replacing Martin as some sort of cover in the backs? It's disappointing, sure, but hardly a massive disaster to warrant no longer being a passholder.

I see him as a fairly significant step down from (a fit) Tony Martin. I don't think those who are saying they won't renew will stick to that in the cold light of day. They're just venting over what would be a truly terrible signing.

You haven't heard the latest rumour about it being an 18 month deal? Sorry to have to be the one to break it to you.

McGoldrick is easily wound up and a cheap shot penalty merchant. Remember the late shot against us earlier in the season? How many of those will he do for us?

i agree it is not the greatest of signings and he is a turd but i am sure there are other better signings around the corner for us, this is just one guy who adds a little more experience and versatility and you never know his temperament could be much better when he plays in a better and less frustrating side than cas

It's not just for this season. In a statement he said " I have been given an opportunity to extend my super league career beyond this season "

Very true, having stuck it out all these years I will roll up again...

Seriously feel I was/am entitled to be a drama queen and throw a paddy on this one though :twisted:
