Cas have signed Tyla Hepi on a 1 year deal (with option for the club of another year on top) as a replacement for Mitch Clark

Can't wait for Vastman's assessment on this. Where is Vasty anyway ?

An improvement on Clark IMO. Does more minutes and a lot smarter with the ball in hand. Also doesn't take up a quota spot so a win-win for me.

Has Powell said he is a direct replacement for Clark? I see Hepi as more of a Bateman-esque type player with his best position being second row or loose. I'm not sure he's an out and out prop.
Having said that, the guy is hard as nails and plays right on the edge. He certainly won't take a backwards step and I'm curious to see how he develops under Powell.

Yeah. I'd imagine he'll come off the bench and provide some enthusiasm like Clark did in the middle of the pitch.

Is he using a different account ?

Not sure about Vasty, but.....

I’m certainly not happy about signing Westerman. He’s bang average, horrible attitude and it’s like we haven’t learnt anything after signing the likes of Scott Moore and Jordan Tansey.

I think he’s a good player but there’s a reason he’s had 4 clubs in 2 years and there’s plenty of rumours in Hull about misconduct

And he’d only be down the road from his old drinking partner.

Joe Westerman when he's on it is a very good player, when the going gets tough though he does go missing. As Willzay says too probably not the best idea having him down the road from Liam Watts and Xscape. Especially with Rangi so close at Donny.
