I agree. It would be a travesty to lose a player of Gaskell's undoubted ability.

It will but that doesn't mean that Saints would necessarily risk sending him out as a rep if he was sulking as some have suggested or if he had other behavioural problems.

And how do u no this

If the rumours are true he as turned a new contract down then he must have somewhere else lined up

Or hoping for a better offer, or seeing if he gets more game time, or .....

Not necessarily, he could be hedging his bets to see what he's offered by other clubs.

He'll get another chance before the end of the season, he needs to make sure he takes it.

I am not too sure he will get another chance

I don't think he will either.

Or living off form from 6 games ago???

If rumours are Anythin to go by he has most of the league after his signature but u seem nailed on his played his last game for saints and already has a club in mind

If he doesn't get a game against Salford then I can't see him playing for the club again they is a reason he ain't player its one of two brown doesn't rate him or something gone on behind closed doors the only people who know this is lee Nathan and the chairman

I hope he plays but for some strange reason like u said only lee brown and chairman knows whats going on but can't see him playing again if they don't intend on playing him rather realease him or sell him

Better to release or sell. Get some cash, or free up space in the salary. Save the rest of his salary to put a bid in for another player.

I like Gaskell, but pointless having a player who does not play.

Saints won't sell him they would prefer him to run down is contract

Well that's just stupid surely it's better to get money for him then let him go for nothing

Or just to get his wages in the pocket if they can't sell him. But if there are a few teams in the running for him, then selling would be ideal.

There isn't a club in the league that wouldn't want to snap him up when he becomes available - in the current talent-starved market a young back with size, a kicking game and a bit of pace is golddust. But there's no point keeping him around if we've decided he isn't the half we can build a team around (as I've always doubted) for the next decade and we ain't going to use him. It'll be a bit sad to see him go but hardly earth shattering. If we can offload Hohaia and Wheeler at the same time somehow and get 2 new halves in from somewhere then everybody would be happy.

If the club won't sell or release him maybe they are hoping to keep him

If ur in his shoes would u resign if ur not getting picked

Personally I think it would be a travesty if we let this lad go he's undoubtedly got talent and it would be another nail in the coffin of our academy system which hasn't produced much of late!

Don't no depends how much I was getting payed and how much I could get elsewhere

But if ur not playing ur not going get much are u

No but I go we're the best offers was playing or not I would do best for my family

Personally I like Gaskell but if he doesnt produce the goods on the field then he has to go. This is the reality of having a salary cap , you cant hoard players.

Do you or anybody else for that matter honestly believe he has been given a chance?

Three games behind a very under-performing Pack!

Sorry but I don't agree.
