You do realize he's not an academy player?

As a Warrington fan I really hope Cas sign Ellis.



SL needs teams such as Cas to be a real force. We cant have Warrington, Wigan, Saints and Leeds picking up all the best talent all of the time or else the competition is going to get dull and boring.



I cant see Warrington having an interest in Ellis to be honest, we are ok for 2nd rowers. We have other areas that need looking at for 2013.

Where did he say he was?

You forgot davies, also I cant see us not retaining at least one of snitch, Mitchell and jones.

Carlsberg, dont touch the stuff , its a ladies drink.



Your obsession with Cas is really getting to you isnt it ? Just come out of the closet and admit you would sooner be over this side than wallowing on the peacock

Another major jizz-fest happening on the Wakey board I see. And from a club who always pay their bills.

I couldn't agree more but it is up to Cas to show the ambition and make sure that we get Gareth signed up as early as possible. For me RW has no excuses not to make an offer that Gareth Ellis cannot refuse and it doesn't need to be a bank breaking offer either.

Such a key signing would kick start the regeneration of success at Cas. If the young lads aren't enthused by such an iconic player coming then I don't know what will, the opportunity to learn so much will be invaluable to not only each individual player but to the club also. Other potential signings would also see the signing of GE as an indication of the club's ambition.

I think without doubt that crowd's would increase on his signing alone which would generate more cash for better players and produce even bigger crowds. It worked for Warrington so there is no reason why it can't work for us, it's down to one man to regain his credibility and lead the club forward.



So Mr Wright get your finger out and finally prove to us all your worth.

Oh your back, no change of identity this time?

Well I do recall the words......'we will be signing [uQuality[/u not [uQuantity[/u'. A good chance to put the money where the mouth is....we certainly haven't signed the Quantity so lets bring Ellis home and make good on the Quality part of the statement.

More than an utterance of caution is required here - I have seen it hundreds of times before with sports.



This is little more than badge kissing and in the cold light of day won't make a blind bit of difference come signature time; I am not having a pop at Gaz Ellis in any way, but he is a comodity and his interest (rightly so) is mercenary in a short career to look after his family for his post playing career, so this is little more than he and his agent creating a demand and inviting other clubs as well to "break the pull of his heart strings to Cas" and make him re-think his boyhood dreams - the best way to rethink my dreams is £00's on a cheque.



So, in the interests of balance if Gaz Ellis wanted to come to Cas above all other things, he instructs his agent to contact our club quietly without discussing it, gets our best offer and negotiates. At that stage if that is not what he was hoping, then he can contact choices 2 and 3 for balance, there is no need for this come and get me facade other than to pretend no fuss is wanted, when in fact a fuss is the objective.



I can't believe people are as naive as to simply read the words at face value and tell Richie W the prize is there for the taking. Master stroke from Ellis and his people either way now. There is not a Coach, Chairman or anyone connected with any club side in the world would not talk to Gaz Ellis in either code if he wanted to chat about a contract.



Dont believe the way things look at first glance people, it's sport business not a mills and boon. I always say I would give anything for a pro-SL contract at Cas, but when it comes down to it a £20k per year pay as you play contract would soon take the edge of my love and devotion and see me back at my day job!

It does seem a little strange that people in Cas seem blissfully unaware of this yet the Wakey fans know all the ins and outs...

Just had a peep and it seems to be a massive circle tug by all the usual (in the know) suspects.



They havent been so excited since that window fitter turned up or crusaders handed them a lifeline in the big league. Shame that big Kid of theirs wont let us join in.



You make my heart sing, you make everything .....groovy ............................................. sad sack
