Lets Focus on the Result : Sat Apr 07, 2012 9:24 am  

I would like to discuss the result and not the antics of a few mindless thugs:

Really chuffed with last nights results, it does seem as though the team is beginning to gel and it seems that now Basil is back with us he is starting to make a difference.

Owen seems to have upped his game as does snitch and youngquest. Rangi seems to be getting into his stride and great to see the young players like clarke & homes improving week on week.

However a massive pat on the back to Walker, coming back after a nasty injury and he is playing his heart out. keep it up mate

Hear Hear !

I think the main reason we are starting to get results are the performances of our young pack lads. Emmitt, Holmes, Walker, Massey, Clark have all turned into estabished SL players over the last 5-6 games IMO.

I can't believe the improvements since IM has returned; both individually and collectively. Richie Owen looks a completely different player, as does youngquest. The aggression that johnny wacker brings is proving invaluable. Keep up the good wOrk boys!

I thought Walker was awesome last night. Keep it up Johnny lad

Yes hope Walker can stay injury free and doesn't have any problems with discipline in the coming years.

We have been crying out for a big second rower who could put a big tackle in and make opposition players wary of...think Adrian Morley or Rambo Ronnie Gibbs type

Well done on the win.

As a wakey fan we are serving up some poop in last 2 games. Million miles away from our early season performances at the moment.

Suppose credit has to go to cas and your team to playing to a simple but effective game plan. We let chase run riot along the defensive line and paid on more than one occasion for it.

Fiveoccassions to be exact.

Was a great result and confidence boost for the guys. There were a few shakey moments, not least of which was when Owen passed the ball, from his knees about 5 yards off our line. It was one of those slow motion.....'NNOOOOOO, what are you doing??!!!!!' moments.

I wasn't overly impressed with Ganson, however Cas seemed to handle the situation well and didn't let a lack of discipline, in response to Ganson, spoil their focus on the game.

Over all it moves Cas 2 places up the table, but there is plenty of hard work to be done yet before we make a top 8 spot.

As for a man of the match, I'd be torn between Clarke and Walker, both had great games.

Well done on the result. Was Walker the no.12. If it was youve got a gem there, certainly came up with some big shots !

Chase and Owen for me, our lads totally shat themselves when these two had the ball. I've always been a massive critic of Chase mainly owing to him skipping too much and costing Cas a lot of momentum in 4 on 3 situations etc, last night though his timing was sensational and his long passing game just keeps getting better. Decent sides won't leave gaps for him to put players into but a bit more work on the offload game and you'll be back were you were at the beginning of last season - not that I want that.
