Just thought i would come on this morning and congratulate you on a superp performance last night.

I dont think cas were really at the races tonight but that certainly had something to do with the way you lot played.

Was evident that we had a no recognised stand out hooker as your number 9 (i wont try and spell it but it begins with P) ran the show. I could not belive the amount of off loads that your team made. We just seemed power less to stop them.

Really hope you go un beaten for the rest of the season. Still for the life of me cant understand the RFL wanting to "expand" the game when there are clubs with heritage, support and clearly the playing ability (of which at least a few are English) in the middle of the heart lands.

I still argue that the decision to bring in the Welsh is a way of getting more sky cash into the RFL's pocket by way of a new market for advertising but unfortunately the decision is made.

Any how sure thats already been said but well done tonight. Thought your fans were amazing. Sea of blue and white in the sun on the Railway end. Great to see. Keep playing the way youd o and you will walk the league and be in SL before you know it.

Yours a very humbled Cas fan

A photograph of the railway end from the game should be sent to the RL and they should be made to view it every time they drool over Wales, London, France, Tibet etc.....

Well done fax, you played with a lot of heart and skill. Best of luck for the future you might be able to try and get your revenge in superleague one day. Finger crossed.

The Hoff, a cas fan

Well done fax, awesome game.

But you can't say the best team lost, it's simply not true.

Also, Ganson was really awful. He made some shocking decisions, but that's Ganson.

Good luck for the rest of the year.

You are absoutely right, Tiger Bond, Ganson was absolutely awful, certainly allowing Castlefords second try, but then again for allowing Castleford to hold every single tackle that was made. It was so evident that I counted the time it took or tackles. When Castleford made the tackle it took 5, 6 and 7 seconds for us to be allowed to play the ball, and the other way it was 3 to 4 seconds. This is not Castlefords fault, they should do what they can to win he game, it is the fault of GANSON for allowing them to get away with it. I was under the impression that Superleague had tidied this part of the game up.

I noticed this too. Cas constantly had a 3rd man come in and lie on the tackle. If Ganson allows it for both teams this is fair enough which i think he did. I just thought we were a tad too quick at getting off the tackle and could have slowed them down a touch more.

Well done Fax. I expected Cas's full timers to have more in the tank than us for the last 20 mins, but we matched them all the way. An absolutely awesome display.

Proud to be Blue and White!

Every Super league defends like this you must not watch Super league matchs on TV because they been bang in on about all season

I thought we were too quick in getting up in the tackle too. It put us on the back foot a few times during the game. It's probably because in our league we get penalised for things like that.

I hate watching in Super league it bad for the game it slows down and causes injurys aswell it as been brought in since teams started bringing wrestling coaches in to the game.

Well done - cracking performance and a top (if heart stopping) game to watch. I expected to wake up this morning and find I'd gone grey.

Still wearing my blue and white with pride!! Great game lads!
