Powell does get the best out of players and if he gets the best out of Zak, (if we are signing him) we will have the best fullback in the league.

Yep, 25 and coming into his prime too.

If he does go to Cas & Powell manages to get the best out of him that will be further evidence of GH's lack of foresight in not pulling out all the stops to bring Powell back as the Rhinos Head Coach.
GH doesn't often get the major decisions wrong but in that instance I'm afraid that he did.

If/when McDermott leaves us I'd imagine Powell will be the favourite for the gig. Would he return to HQ?

I think Hardaker will be a major asset for whoever he signs for next year, the lad has bags of ability. If he does end up signing for Cas expect Powell to get the best out of him and we will see a return to the MOS form which will be a particularly hard pill to swallow for us Leeds fans.

Agreed , but I don't think he could stay at Leeds now

Castleford's noon announcement is......"Castleford Tigers have signed Daniel Igbinedion from Oxford RL on a two year deal."

Hopefully not - this club and this competition is crying out for new ideas and new ways of doing things.

Who had heard of Grant Millington, Mike McMeeken, Gadwin Springer, Junior Moors, Denny Solomona? Who had given up on Luke Gale, Luke Dorn, Paul McShane. How many of them would now walk into the Rhinos team?
