Maybe they have some interest in Hampshire, he is rumoured to be leaving Wigan, which I can quite easily see happening, He is also rumoured to be Cas bound but a deal is never done till it's done. I would say he has all the makings of a very good SO, he just doesn't get the game time at Wigan. I think he could do very well under Powell, but I would have him here tomorrow .

With all that's supposedly going on at Cas at the moment, Powell may not even be there, All rumour and such , just have to wait
see.

Hampshire is better than Fages IMHO.

Just goes to show that those on here telling us 4 weeks ago there were no good halves around were WRONG

Wasn't Hampshire in Wakefield's academy? I'm sure he'd be happier on the right side of the Pennines.

Not sure if he was Wakey academy... I presume he signed for Wigan at a young age... But he is definitely a Wakey lad.

Probably signed him up before the deadline

dont think the giants are in the market for a half back, they are happy with ellis and brough who are going very well at the moment and can only get better.

I'd like to know if it's true. The sad thing is , It probably is.

T'was in the Examiner in an article about the Fages rumour.

So it's probably either a) made up or b) mis-spelled.

TBF the club would be bound to say that anyway. You'd have to have the man management skills of a Ralph Rimmer to say, at the most important part of the season, "Our half backs aren't good enough and we are actively seeking to replace one".

Good point.

I wouldn't think the club would get involved with a player that is considering taking legal action against his parent club.
