Shocking second half performance by Cas and all the more soul destroying as it was against the poorest side I believe we've faced this season. I thought it was a slow game, we got sucked into a scrap and Child, as expected, proved to be a leveller for much of the game. That doesn't excuse our shocking defence though when at 20-points up all we had to do was retain posession and kick on from there.

Interesting to see that normal service was resumed yesterday for both teams, regardless of how desperately unlucky we were at the end.

Crusaders were the worst side we've played this season.

Wakey missed Higgins, Rinaldi, Moriano and our kicker griffin. Plus George out also. All expected to be back vs kr.

Wigan were class defensively by all accounts and any team in Sl would have struggled to score more than 10. There heads were screwed on big time.

That said cas are looking like doing what wakey did last season after we won 7 from 9. I hope you turn it round and keep fighting and get back to winning ways!

Just until we meet again ofcourse

Very premature. We were the better side against the top of the league side yesterday (ok that is about to change) away from home.

We will finish in the play offs. Didn't you lot slide to 11th last year?

Not really a slide more of a quick tumble, but yes.

Re: Castleford v Wakefield : Tue Apr 26, 2011 8:44 pm  

You know we did slide back to 11th last season.

Oh and well done for finishing in playoffs with another 15 games to play. . Perhaps as premature a comment as my earlier comment

I was trying to wish cas some good luck here, I hope you do get in playoffs as I'd prefer seeing cas in there ahead of a fair few other teams.

We will finish in the play offs is what I predict. That better?

Much, would be good to see both of us in there but we have a fair bit of ground to make up on you after your good start.

And my point was it happened to us last year, it wasn't good viewing. Although a possibility I don't think cas would tumble like we did last year.

Re: Castleford v Wakefield : Tue Apr 26, 2011 9:22 pm  

Even if Cas go on a slide it won't be for want of trying, at Wakey we just get taken apart with seemingly no interest...

Thats sorta what I meant, we have slipped from top to 5th, and will probably end up around 6th. (which is what the club targeted, the press mainly put us 9th 10th).

Think the negative 4 plus the loss of your players put paid to any play off hopes. But had you of kept Obst, Ferg and not lost 4, then who knows what would've been? Still, hope you get a franchise....(still doesn't seem right me saying that after spending the last few years lambasting Wakefield! )
