Think austin for cas is a major game changer and when/if they bring powell in think it does for us.got to give cas credit got rid of deadwood and improved there squad with lads who will come in and bust a gut

I'm not sure it 'does for us'. We've already beaten an Austin led team.
They now have a lot of pivots and both halves are runners but the rest are still pretty weak.

They might have an Austin, but we've got a Fifita.

I don't disagree that it makes them stronger. I just don't agree that it makes them so much stronger that we are done for.

Sounds like Austin was a bit too honest in a recent podcast and has had a telling off from Uncle Gary.

Tbf ..Austin or not, if we can carry playing like we are then we will be ok imo. We've beaten top teams playing some fantastic rugby , keeping Gale and Jowitt fit and on the field is key for us regardless of who Has have playing . They have a number of players coming who they haven't a clue how they will go.....we are passed that ! Come on Wakey its in our hands

Got told today that Dave's wife (who is still in Aus) is due to have a baby in the next couple of weeks ??
Don't know if he is planning on being there but for our sake's, let's hope not

No he admitted he would not be at the birth when he came back however if it happens during Cup week he may go home.
