I always liked Tukere Barlow, was a little ahead of his time in his style of play. He had some issues but he was by no means as terrible as people make out.

When I first saw I thoought it said "pub" - whats the worst that could happen !

Martin Dermott

Didn't Vinnie Anderson also play a game at hooker?

Incidentally no-one is being critical of the signing as he is the best available but Clark has more in common with Higham than Monas.

"Clark, who expects to remain in the Castleford area, is relishing a future in primrose and blue.

“They’ve got lots of history of winning trophies and have always been there or thereabouts, so they’re a massive club,” he said."

He knows just what to say.

He should move over this way surely?

Excellent

Awesome

Has he got mental problems?

I'd suggest that he's as daft as you are fair-minded.

Add Myler to the hooker list of the current team.

"Lots of history of winning trophies," "have always been there or thereabouts" are symptomatic of mid - long term memory problems and "they're a massive club" is simply delusional fantasy.

Making light of mental health issues. Could only come from a Wigan fan.

I've had mental problems, pretty serious in fact, personally I'm not going to get all pc with it, humour is subjective.

History as we know it only started in the late eighties and ended in the mid nineties, this is a common rugby fact is it not?

It's what Wigan fans drill into everyone.

heres a historical fact wire have never ever been relegated..wigan have

Cas need a sugar daddy like salford to keep the wolves at bay.

I hope DC fulfills his potential with us. We have signed 3 of the biggest young British talents in the last 5 years but will they all realise their potential. When Saints signed Newlove, sculthorpe it did not turn into instant success. I think Monaghan has been our most important signing in the last 15 years or more but I think DC could be better suited to the style of play we are moving towards. I hope so.

Newlove was pretty instant success with Saints.

Wigan had dominated rugby league winning everything year after year for a decade and Saints had been in their shadow.

Saints sign Newlove in November 1995.
April 1996 Saints win the Challenge Cup breaking Wigan's 8 in a row.
September 1996 Saints win Super League.

Clark would have been excellent as an impact hooker for us tonight as we needed to be more direct. However Monas is still looking the part as a lead hooker.

We will miss him.

Was it Sheffield that stooped Wigan winning 9 in a row?

It was Saints I think who ended their run in 1997 when Daryl Clark was 3. Not being from Wigan the history of Rugby league 1988-1996 is not a compulsory subject at school
When they asked Clark about his early memories of rugby league he said "obviously one of the first things I remember being a Castleford fan is Wigan cheating us into relegation! I remember at the time though my dad saying don't worry son we'll be back and at least we've got our own ground! It tickled me somewhat when Wigan weren't allowed to play at their home ground for a major cup game for fear of flattening the daisies before a football game! Obviously no player with a lengthy future in the game would feel comfortable signing for a team of nomads like that
My first challenge cup final as a spectator was 1998 when my dad took me at the age of 5 to watch Sheffield vs Wigan. I remember Sheffield winning quite easily and thinking it was a bit unfair that such a big city as Sheffield should be competing against a small town club like Wigan. It nearly broke my heart when my dad told me that their ground was falling down and they were about to be evicted!! I remember hearing all the Wigan fans chunnering about their history etc and remember thinking to myself who gives a flying fat one about all that!!
The transistion of Warrington in my lifetime has been remarkable. They have their own purpose built stadium a wonderful coach, have attracted some of the biggest names in world rugby and have had massive success on the field! Indeed I've watched them 3 times at Wembley and they've won every time!!"

Good luck DC from all at the Wire!

Salford put them out the bus in January 96

Did they not have the right fare?
