Cracking win after a poor start. Thought Castleford were going to run away with it but we showed grit, determination and desire to win it in the end. Some great performances, hope Byrne continues to improve the way he is doing, really like him.

Much, much better from Mago, ran hard ran straight, quick ptb's and the odd offload, more of that please and he really could be a game breaker for us in tight matches

Re: Onto Cas : Sat Jun 04, 2022 2:55 pm  

How did we play? I am away camping so struggling for signal and what I have watched I could barely make out. I had this down as a home banker so a great result especially after being 12-0 down.
How has Field gone in the halves? How has Miski done as I feel a few people have been too quick to write him off on here ( I do agree it seems an odd use of a quota spot)
Probably wouldn’t have been the end of the world to lose this one with the circumstances but winning has me looking up rather than down, 3 games we should be winning before the magic weekend coming up too.

Brilliant second half.

Bevan seemed to have the time of his life at fullback.

I got criticised on here when I said he links into the line as a 3rd half back a bit better than Field. That no look cut out ball to Marshall was an example.

Thought Sam Powell was superb and Mago much improved.

Such a nice feeling knowing we have a team that have tries in us.

With French, Field, Mago, Marshall, Farrell on the pitch it just feels like we could score every single set.

Exact opposite of last year.

To have that feeling when your 2 starting halfbacks are out is great, meanwhile the other side of the hill call it an injury crisis because one half back is injured.

French really looked to be enjoying himself and full of confidence after a rather poor start. Miski was just fine, went well and scored his try. That score from French from Marshall's cute kick must be one of the prettiest tries I've seen in a while. Partington was good too.

3 players in on his every time and he was still making meters. If the signing of Cooper is true then two coming off the bench as impact props will be great

Re: Onto Cas : Sat Jun 04, 2022 3:14 pm  

That was a good result a week after a cup win. The bench, particularly Mago, changed the game for us. Fonua helped, that was dumb.

We took a long time to get going but when we did there was a lot of good performances in there. One thing today showed is we have 2 top class full backs but neither are really a half. Smith ran the show for us.

More of the same from Mago please, much more direct which caused them problems.

Re: Onto Cas : Sat Jun 04, 2022 3:16 pm  

Great last 50 mins, terrible opening 30. We do it all too often, we look like a different team. That said, the second half was a joy to watch.

Re: Onto Cas : Sat Jun 04, 2022 3:23 pm  

Agree about Mago too, much better from him. We are so good to watch when we get it right too. And again, I like the C4 coverage.
