Good business by Castleford, he's a talented young player but £150k is a lot of money, but both sides will be happy with the deal no doubt.

This is fabulous news and heartening to see the board spend big money on a talented player who has his best years in front of him rather than behind.

It's a lot of money if you haven't got it.
