Which page?

We now need to sign a back rower who can bust the line, a Willie Manu type player

Weren't you going to extend Morrisons contract before his injury? How old would he have been ?

Rather like Luke O Donnell then,although in all fairness Gilmour has played a fair few games more than your big name NRL superstar.

o'donnell gets smashed and knocks on?



looking forward to seeing o'donnell back this weekend v hull fc and hopefully staying injury free for the end of season run in

shame he did ligaments last season....can see his class when he plays

Told ya

With all due respect, he's been linked about a month/month and a half.

So what is the low down on Gilmours current fitness, speed etc etc?

I keep looking at his age of 34 and thinking, we've signed yet another player in the twilight of their career with their best years behind them. I hope I'm wrong...

It's been old news for about 6 weeks now. Even Dave "Nosey" Parker saw fit to report this in the Sun a few weeks ago

IMO its worth taking a risk on a "older player" is he's out of the Solomona/Menzies/Ali mould, other than that its a massive risk, he will bring a a quallity to the team no doubt but be warned he's a total pro and won't like anyone who's not.

I hope he can have at least another good year or so, nothing wrong in getting a seasoned pro or ex-International in for a year in theory, Menzies being a great example.

However, this is Cas after all so for every Guttenbiel there is at least one Newlove...

Sounds good to me - just what we are lacking at the moment.

he wont like most of our team then!

I can't in all honesty say that, but he will train like a pro and he will expect others to do the same.

He really is a model pro player in every sense, so if players need a role model then you've just got one.

Not as good now.Getting abit old now.

Sod that. Gilmour for Head Coach.

im a salford fan, ignore what wakey fans say, i think gilmour will be a great signing, so far i have been following cas's recent signings and they all stand out as good signings, i think you will be up there next season, when salford first got into super league a long time ago, we were slated for signing old players as in andy platt, john cartwright etc but had a great first season and finished in the top half of the table, well done cas on a great signing, ignore wakefields overly paid squad who have underperformed !!!!!!

Thats the problem they cant

Oh the irony



The inferiority complex coming from Wakefield fans on here is laughable.

ON TOPIC:

Gilmour is still a good player and is far better than Lee Mitchell.

What are you doing on here then ?

Last I looked this was a Cas forum, not a Wakey one. When you lot post a Cas thread/Cas related post on quite a number of threads your own forum you encourage people posting.

There's a bigger thread on the chase situation on their board then on ours!

I don't see a problem with local fans inter boarding, if its not causing problems.

The Wakey board will post topics on local areas of interest and both sets of fans are welcome, if they behave.

I suggest you join a sterile Cas board and play god on there.

Back on topic i know Lee, not best mates or out but i've seen him coaching and know how he operates as a player, any comments i have made have been contructive and i'll continue to offer opinons if i feel the need.

Yes mate, oh and this is the Gilmour thread

I don't have a problem with fans communicating with each other and certainly banter is welcome. But in reality it tends to get beyond that between fans and that ruins it for everyone else then.

But to say that it's impossible for Cas fans to ignore Wakey fans - he has a point; it's hard to ignore it when it's on the majority of threads on the Cas board and similarly on the Wakey board.

As for Gilmour, he'll be a decent acquisition and a great role model/leader for the likes of Holmes and Thompson.
