Castleford Away Next up... : Tue Apr 02, 2013 10:14 am  

Saturday 3pm on sky sports (not happy with this but will be there)

so after a good start to April and the thrashing of widnes we move on to castleford. will we turn up with the right attitude and play the Giants way - tough!

anyone know when we last won there?! seems to be a bogey team for us at their place.

will be good to see mason up against our lot and gilmore, never an easy place to get a win but they are struggling this season and we should take full advantage (like we did at salford )

no new injuries from the easter period, virtually a full squad apart from chan (LOD if you count him too)

come on you giants!!!

last time we won at Castleford Never seems to be straight forward over there, i enjoy going to Cas but it hasn't been a happy hunting ground recently. It wont be easy, there on there bcksides at the moment with alsorts going off off the field so we need to have the right attitude and not look at the league table !!. Anyone thinking of going on public transport ? a Family day rover costs £11 and can be used by 2 adults (and up to 3 kids) ...change at Leeds and takes about an hour to Cas in total.

Yeah- we are going on the train. Panthers could well be doing prematch and half time game so couldn't go on coach as if they do my lad has to be there early.

not won there since march 2009 then! need this monkey off our backs

Brough always seems to have poor game there- the crowd get on his back and his head goes. We need Lunt to boss Clarke and chase to be well marked- That could be a job for Bruno from loose if he plays. If we can keep those two quiet we should do fine.

Carney likely to be missing for the game as he has been charged with a dangerous throw.

How much do they charge on the day as guess £19 in advance is pretty decent.

Re: Castleford Away Next up... : Tue Apr 02, 2013 11:33 pm  

Think it's two pounds more on the day. If you get your tickets from the giants they get two pounds and you save two pounds- everyone's a winners except cas but that shouldn't concern us.

A 180 mile round trip to buy off the Giants would make me a loser financially but there you go. Assuming Cas dont charge a booking fee I will have to buy them off their website....sorry
