Thompson and Davies Dual Contracts : Tue Mar 02, 2010 2:01 pm  

castigers.com wrote: Two young Castleford Tigers players have joined York City Knights until the end of the season. Three-quarter Jordan Thompson (18) and Back row forward John Davies (19) join the Co-operative Championship division 1 side on a dual-contract basis. Link to article on castigers.com I'm not sure how wise this is given the lack of depth in our squad and the fact that through the coaches apparent lack of faith in Thompson, along with injury to Ferres, we were effectively reduced to 15 players for most of Saturday's match.

I guess Dixon must be closer to returning than we thought, otherwise its very risky.

I can only assume we can recall them at any time.

They're dual contracts rather than loans so they can play for either side but only one side in a given weekend.
