We have to remember that there are a number of criteria to satisfy in the licences. We all know that the stadium is without a doubt imperative, but alongside that we have to blood our juniors. And as always, people will put Cas and Wakefield together to scrap it out for a licence, so which would the RFL choose? The club that is promoting youngsters and giving them first team action or the route our neighbours claim to be taking which is have a large squad supplemented with six/seven youngsters alongside their 10/11 'overseas' stars on their books.



Aside from that, we can't rely on overseas stars forever. Remember the quota is coming down year on year so any signing we do make is going to have to be for a year.

20k on it's own wouldn't, but as we're looking for another player at the moment another 20k added onto what is currently available would allow us to bring in a player that little bit better.

Best of luck to lad.
