Could be a real game changer for you guys in your quest to stay up in the middle 8s, the FORMER self proclaimed "King of Cas" is on the market and seeking out a club. Ryan's best days in a Cas shirt came against absolute fodder in the championship in 2007 and I think the old swinger has 1 last challenge in him. GH, get bidding! www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/36033267

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahyeahyeah yeah

Worth a gamble on a game by game basis maybe.

What about Jamie Soward?

Benji Marshall is available next year. Not what he was, but still outperforming Widdop at St George and better than any halfback in Super League, including Sandow.

Mid you, if Soward is also available he'd be a better pick.

Wouldn't we love to see Benji in blue & amber

Team back up with his pal Keith Galloway?

Peter Wallace instead?

"He sustained a season-ending ruptured anterior cruciate ligament on his left knee on July 27, 2014." How's he playing for the Panthers at the minute?

He's playing ok as hooker standing in for injured Segeyaro. Don't personally rate him highly though, Soward a much better player.

A hooker that could cover in the halves, Hallelujah

Errrrm, anymore HBs sniffing around for a gig?

[uNumber 6[/u

Josh Cleeland, Blake Green, Ben Hampton, Justin Hunt, Nicholas Hynes, Luke Kelly, Jack Littlejohn, Benji Marshall, Moses Mbye, Daniel Mortimer, Kodi Nikorima, Shaun Nona, Corey Norman, Will Smith, Cody Walker

[uNumber 7[/u

Dane Chisholm, Mitch Cornish, Tyler Cornish, Cooper Cronk, Josh Drinkwater, Mafoa'aeata Hingano, Isaac John, Luke Keary, Anthony Milford, Darren Nicholls, Jeff Robson, Riley Travers, Peter Wallace, Sam Williams

Are all these out of contract at then end of the season?

Yes mate.

Some quality half backs there we should be making a play for

Of that list Milford and Mbye will 've signing long, high contracts and are ungettable. Cronk, Keary and Norman probably out of reach too. There's only really a couple of others who'd be decent signings.

Nikorima that kid who played in the tests against England?

Yep. Good prospect.

Wouldn't mind him in blue & amber would we

Hope this don't happen but burns name as cropped up. Saints want him off wage bill so they can sign a winger.

mcgoldrick and/ or burns - let's hope uncle Gary is not reading all this and getting ideas.

A lot of interesting names there, and a lot that unfortunately are likely to be out of reach.

Of the relative unknowns Shaun Nona was quite impressive for the Pride the other year and can kick, Walker has been pretty good at Souths this year but is obviously not first choice.

Having said all that if we are getting guys like that with little to no NRL experience Id rather we try and develop Lilley.

As an aside Ive always quite liked Mortimer, who plies his trade as more of a 9 who can cover the halves today (but still defends the middle). That would be a signing that would make some sense for us next year imo.

To develop Lilley I would say you need an experienced Halves partner, a Leader, a Director with him. McGuire is out again plus isn't having a good season and Sutty ain't no experienced Halves partner. Burrow has proven he can't lead the team around the park either. I would say Marshall should be a serious target for us.
