agree I think Tupou has been in outstanding form... Lynne was playing so well and Arundel looks assured and confident...

loving the choices...

and that players are covering injury and really playing for their places!

Grix was good when he played for us previously but he has matured well and seems a little more resilient this season (or maybe lucky!)

ps not really into the debate that this clubs player is better than that clubs player... a team is the sum of its constituent parts ... and then some (called synergy)

the synergy of the Cas team is currently outstanding... the synergy of Trinity is very very good....


would love to see both these teams achieve some success and silverware this year....

Even though I dd enter the debate about who's better than who, like I said in my first post, it's so hard to compare players from different teams, just down to the human part of it objectivity, plus how the team sets it's self up, the structures they play under and the jobs each player has been given. Which might not get the best out of then perosnally, but it's for the teams greater good.

Anyway, win or lose I just hope we have a real close local derby. Where both teams bring their A games and we see some of the games better players show exactly why they're that. Forwads smashing into each other and the halves and the backs, produce soome scintillating RL. Hopefully of couse we just pinch it. 8)

PS, love the word Synergy and describes RL very well at times.

Years? How far back are we going here?


I would say they're probably playing the best brand of attacking rugby since the last great Saints side of around 2006, which is a refreshing change to Michael Maguire/Shaun Wane style rugby and makes it slightly easier to stomach the fact that they're currently favourites to win the league (thankfully I don't think they will though).

If you want to have 5 year old spats do it by PM. It's pretty boring for the rest of us.

As for Hardaker he looks like he has added to his game to me.
Leeds played out from deep with the running wingers but Cas are different and Hardaker has changed his game accordingly. He has a bit of Dorn's game in him now which makes him more of a team player.
Dangerous to us and needs stopping if we are to have a chance of winning.

Grix isn't dangerous to them in the same way but he is important enough to our team to allow the team to be dangerous.
Each suits their team well.

I would agree they've played the most open brand of rugby in the past couple of years, but Hudds when they won LLS in 2013 and Warrington when they were spanking everyone left right and centre in 2011 were far more exciting - with some silverware to show for it.

One things for sure, one set of fans will be very disappointed by the end of the game - my heart says it will be Cas my head says it will be us.

If it weren't a derby game I'd have written this one off already - problem is it's a derby game for them as well.
