Gotta play Eastmond. Think we'll basically be handing Cas the points if we play Sutty at 6 again....

This is a massive test , not only due to our injury situation, but more because Cas were superb today , and totally outplayed Wire . If we only have Gale as a playmaker , they will not give him an inch , whilst they have Trueman , MacShane and a cracking full back to make them tick.
I know its early days , but our second row of Mellor and Martin is looking poor - they had no impact at all against Wakey . On todays display , Oliver Holmes will murder them on his own.

For all Cas looked good I thought Wire were awful, with the squad they have they should be better, Price should go early, I get the feeling the cas side will want to give powell a good send off, I don’t get that feeling with Warrington.

Don’t fancy us against Cas tbh with the current 17 available. We’ll need to be much much better

Spot on this Chris , when it got tough they didnt want to know whereas Cas kept turning up for each other.

We should hopefully have Danny Richardson back as well. Just to put things in perspective I thought Wire were very poor yesterday. Half of them didn't look interested.

Cas looked Ok but nothing more really. As previous posters have said, wolves were distinctly average.My biggest concern is that they figure out that if they can give gale a few big hits they could leave us with nothing that resembles a decent half back.

Myler is going to be in for a busy game if Cas' kicking game is a similar level to what it was against Warrington. Keeping Trueman quiet will be key
