thats what you brought to us last year

credit to cas last night they fully deserved the win, we just didnt get going and made too many mistakes which cas were always going to punish,they took their chances well despite the dodgy VR ref but would have been an injustice had we won,jackson and jones i thought were excellent for you last night and despite our dissapointment, a fully deserved 2 points for cas.

Cas showed exactly why their a super league club that fully deserves another license. A club developing good young British talent whilst the expansion clubs bolster their ranks with overrated and veteran Australians and Kiwis. Well done from freezing Bradford.

That's better.

Never a truer word spoken.

At the end, I found myself thinking, with a smile: "You never win anything with kids". The young players never looked out of place or remotely intimidated. And only three tackles missed all game says a great deal too.

Congratulations to Cas.

Well you've done it again ...........i used to like coming to Cas but after the last 2 seasons !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously though a big well done to Cas last night, outplayed us in every department and stopped us playing - our forwards were hitting a brick wall time and again and once again Chase ran the show and terrorised us.
Hurry up and get that new stadium built, i'm beginning to get fed up of Wheldon Road now

Fantastic display. When I saw Jones at LF I did think oh god! But it worked. Great team performance. Huby gets better and better.

A lot of credit has to go to TM though, The conditions were perfect to play Emmit in the 2nd row. He drove it in like an extra prop and took a lot out of Huddersfield.

Great time to be a cas fan! The kids did us proud. Still can't believe there are players in SL who were born in the 90s!

Just out of interest who is the youngest player to play for Cas in SL? Clark must be close. I know Owen was pretty young when he made his debut too though.

IIRC, Huby had just turned 17 when he played for Cas in '03. It was a few weeks after his birthday I think.

Im fairly sure huby played against Leeds at the age of 16! Might be wrong tho

Huby was 17.
