Another left in the back by the club but should be announced accordingly but announced by Matt Shaw and Rugby League Live.

Poor from the club that these 2 weren't part of the farewells on Friday.

Strange, can only assume club wasnt actually fully aware and was waiting for defibate answers from the players. Not sure shy they wouldnt announce them Fri with the others.

Will be interesting to see how Cas go next year with Radford there and some new players.

Trueman/McLelland could be a really good partnership - if both can get and stay fit.

Wonder who our halves will end up being. Short term obviously Sezer plus Gale or Austin. Medium term Sinfield is going to come through - I’m starting to like the look of Kai Morgan too.

Announced by cas now, 2 year deal

Not good enough for super league i am afraid , no better than Jordan Lilley

Genuinely curious to see how he goes. Feels like we just never really got to see him here. I've been impressed with his passing. Game management has never looked great but he's never really had much opportunity to play behind a winning pack. It's a shame he wasn't fit to take advantage this year as it was a perfect opportunity to step up and show what he's about. I suspect there's a good player in there and will be interesting to see whether that comes out at Cas or if he fades away. Hope he goes well as long as he doesn't turn up winning games against us

He’s only just turned 22 so he still has time to develop and improve as a player like Luke Gale has done throughout his career. But as things stand he’s not good enough for Leeds, good luck to him at Cas.

Hes better than Lilley in my opinion who was never good enough. I think Callum has potential but he has to stay healthy and have right situation around him. Good luck to him. Right move all round i would say.

might be better than lilley but not by much. good luck to him but was never good enough imo.
cas are assembling a very bang average squad, again, imo

Might be a bang average squad but imo they have a below average coach and I'm predicting that he will be gone within 18 months

I agree. I was amazed he got the job

Dont make it sound like thats a bad thing. Lol.

As a Hull fan, sick to the back teeth of the Club's SL showings, I thought he'd end up with someone like Leigh, or even Wakefield, given that Chester was really under the pump at that time. I said when Cas announced it that this is the end of "classy Cas" and he seems to have faith in the players that let him down at Hull, by signing them up at Cas! I don't think the fans will ever take to him, I could be wrong entirely, but I'd expect major disenchantment among their ranks, after 4 or 5 games and he'll be gone before the season end.
At Hull, he had a very expensively assembled good looking squad that proceeded to lose a record number of games on the bounce, it was painful and felt inevitable, he has no plan B, if power doesn't work , try power and if that fails, more power.
I hope I'm wrong, well sort of, but he'll be gone pretty soon I think when it starts to unravel.

I dunno, There seems to be this weird camaraderie between FC and Cas that I just cant fathom.

One things for sure, they wont stand for any of the turgid rugby that blighted his tenure at FC.

A bit of a shame with McClelland, we never got to see him after a decent, settled run in the team. He isnt going to displace any of the starters in ours next year so a move makes sense for all parties.

They bond over their love of Lee Crookes and hatred of Leeds

Good luck to the lad. I think he might get a better chance at Cas but to be honest I don’t think he will be ever a starting/first choice SL half back. He lacks pace and arrogance that good half backs require at the top level.
Someone compared him to Gale not making it at Leeds and then going on to prove us wrong. However his path in to the first team was blocked by Danny, Kevin and Robbie, three rather better than average half backs.
Anyway good luck probably best for all parties.

I still think there's a good player in Callum, he's had horrendous luck with injuries whilst with us.

Having said that I expect Jack Sinfield to be better and that's probably where our eggs are now.

The Noble school of coaching

He never looked fit enough - was his heart really in it?

Agree with this Jim and the club certainly see a more promising future by having young Jack Sinfield working his way towards the first team over the next couple of years rather than persevering with McLlelland

I really hope that McLlelland goes onto be a starting HB for the Tigers as he is a good kid

Once the announce signings of Sezer and Austin Mclelland's were probably numbered.He was offered a new deal but i suspect was derisory.
Pleased that scrums are back as this should bring back attacking options that has been missing for the last couple of seasons.This should suit Austin so will be interesting who the starting half's are.For mine i would start Sezer at 7 Austin at 6.

Interesting to read that Hurrell might have accepted an offer at Saints even lower than Leeds offered him.

Don’t know if there was a 1-year deal versus a 2-year deal, whether he fancied a change, or whether there’s a bit of nose cutting off to spite face when he was offered much less money here.

The only way he would accept less money would be the length of the contract.

The Hurrell situation is all a bit weird IMO.

He\s repeatedly said he wanted to stay, then even after declining the contract offer has still said he would have preferred to have stayed and it's not how he wanted his time with Leeds to end.

I would imagine we only offered him a one year deal (same as Martin) and Saints offered him two. His partner seems a really headstrong women, wonder if she had any influence in the decision (pure speculation on my point and don't mean any disrespect in it).

I wonder wether Tolouse would have been a good option for him aswell had he known they would be promoted?
