Gale has had his appendix out and out for the rest of the season.

We have a great excuse now if we don't make the GF

Re: Luke Gale : Tue Sep 12, 2017 8:25 pm  

How convenient for Cas that he managed to play in the important game against Leeds (shake their confidence for the GF by losing 4 games so far) but is then struck with an illness which will see him out of action for 2 weeks when they didn't really need him to play...

I think it's a massive inconvenience for Cas that one of their key players is out for the playoffs.

Nothing on the cas site to say this is true

After a laparoscopic removal of the appendix, the vast majority of people will be able to undertake their normal level of activity and exercise at around 2-3 weeks post surgery. This is far from season ending and the Cas report even says it COULD rule him out for the season, not that it HAS ruled him out

GF is 3 and a half weeks away. People might be able to return to a normal level after 3 weeks but playing RL isn't exactly your normal level.

It's back to the persons own level of fitness pre-op. Gale is averaging making 11 tackles per game and is probably tackled even fewer times so the additional impact on his body is fairly minimal for an RL player

This is bad news for Cas and us. Cas are due to play Wigan and Hull next and we could really do with Cas having a full strength team so they can win those matches.
