Manu and Tickle should be retained , I think the club would keep Dowes also .

There is no way we should be letting those 2 go.

If we don't renew Dowes, Radford and Cusack i'd suspect we would have the cap space for at least 4 if not all 5 of those anyway.

Think i should explain that last part better.


I think we could get Owen and Murphy with Cusacks wage.
Radfords wage goes to LMS and a bit of it to Westerman.
Dowes Would top up Westermans (maybe with some left over).
Shenton Could take the money it cost to release Raynor and King with anything left of Dowes wage also.

But this would leave us with only 3 props! Unless Lauaki moves there next year.

Also with Murphy and Owen signing we wouldn't need Calderwood so we could get 2 young props with his wage? Watts and A N Other(not sure who tbh)

Exactly, just edited my post. Maybe keep Dowes so we would have 4 props and use Calders wage. Maybe even try and squeeze Liam Watts into the cap.

Because we are a big club and better club than the likes of Wakey,Cas and Lardan, none of them even know if they(the clubs) are going to be in Super League in 2012 so the players will want there futures securing.

Cas would be stupid to get rid of Owen , Shenton and Westerman . Thier the type of players Cas should be building a team around .
