As mentioned on the Wigan board, I wouldn't be suprised if this is a trial and then maybe an offer for Tuson plus cash and maybe another player for Michael Shenton.

He seems to be strongly linked with us at the moment as a replacement for George Carmont.

Shenton is out of contract at the end of this season. If he was to leave Cas i think it would be on a free.

I thought Tuson went very well tonight, though I think it was him that took a knock in the second half and was helped off.

Re: Second Wigan loanee : Fri Mar 26, 2010 11:04 pm  

How did he play? How long etc?

Re: Second Wigan loanee : Fri Mar 26, 2010 11:07 pm  

I thought he played well before he was taken off. Put in a few good hits and tackled well.

I think he was on the field about 15-20 in total but was taken off after 10 minutes of the second half after taking a knock to the head. He got up and walked off the field with the help of the trainers though.

Looking forward to seeing how he goes next week.

Shenny will be at the goons next season.

Is that for definate? Obviously it's early doors in regards to the season and I'd be suprised if it's all done and dusted.

Excellent player tho and I'd love him at Wigan. He's got the potential to have the same impact for us as what Senior had on Leeds.

It makes a mockery out of the tapping up rules. Goons needs bagpiping!!

Perhaps the Cas board asked Wigan if they would let any players go to the Jungle. Wigan agreed and Ainscough arrived and played!
Perhaps the Cas board again asked Wigan the same question and Tuson arrived.
No doubt someone at Wigan asked if any Cas player was off contract and Cas wouldn't be able to afford to retain him and Shenton's name popped up!
He's OOC end of 2010 and he'll want to secure his future with a decent salary.
Shenton is a quality player who'll want quality money. Wigan will have shed loads available after 2010 after releasing players and one or two retiring.
Wouldn't surprise me if he ended up at Wigan with one or two players going the other way.
