ive spoke to ryans family and the move is nothing down to money ryan is on a very low wage much lower than higgins and jackson has been signed on more than dbl what boyle asked for, but mainly he wants some first team experience but tm has told him he wont be featuring much in the first team games and mcrae has offered him a first team slot so at the minute it looks like he will definatley be leaving
feather is also leaving but thats it everyone else is staying put for next year at least.

But McRae has played it down..

because ryan hasnt 100% made his decision, hes played at cas all his life and its where his heart is but obviously the people around him are trying to help him make the best decision for his career which means moving

It's sad when a local lad is pushed out of the club.
In the long run though, if boyle does go to salford for 2/3 years and get's valuble first team rugby, lets not forget terry matterson wont always be a coach at cas. Maybe in 2/3 years time and ryan as come on leaps and bounds he might find a career back at cas.

Still though it must very hurtful when the lad wants to play for his home town club and the coach see's differant.

I wish him well wherever he goes.

Why don't Cas give Boyle a slighty improved deal and send him out on loan to Salford, abit like what Saints have done with scot moore. There are a few players out on loan while they develop like McNally at his hometown club whitehaven while being on Hudds books.

simples



p.s i do want ryan to stay at Cas but if he isn't going to get the game time , a loan move seems best imho rather than lose a home grown forever.
