Meanwhile, boss Peter Gentle confirmed he is interested in signing Castleford utility back Ryan McGoldrick.

He told BBC Radio Humberside: "I coached Ryan a long time ago back in Australia and I had a good relationship with him.

[u"It'd be a short-term deal until the end of the season and a chance for him to put himself in the shop window." [/u

Explaining his decision to leave the Tigers, McGoldrick says [ua chance to extend his stay in Super League [/uwas one he couldn't afford to miss and prompted his decision to ask to leave early.

He said: "Castleford has been a major part of my life for the last seven years and a main part of my playing career.

"[uAn opportunity has arisen which may help me continue my Super League career into the future and I have chosen to take it.[/u

Seems clear both parties accept its a short term deal, the only reason to extend it would be if he earns an extra year by playing well

Jamie Foster is 1 off the 6 we've signed for next season, we've just got him in early on a loan deal for cover this year

Will the Hull Daily Mail run this before or after today's piece with Rangi Chase in a black and white shirt? Which itself was 2 days after Chase signed a 3 year extension to his 4 year deal at Cas, wasn't it?

We could essentially do the same with Chase. If we're sure his visa will come we should sign and register him, then just play the waiting game. That could be expensive though.

I ment to add, dont quote me on that



all this rumour talk drives me mad, i really just want the club to start confirming some of these rumours

3rd time lucky? makes sense to me, good signing if we do
