Official Match Thread - Castleford v Eagles (CC R5) : Thu Apr 24, 2014 9:37 pm  

This Sunday 3.30pm @ Wheldon Road (fix your hose pipe zoo or something these days).

If you offered me a good performance, a relatively respectable score and a few tries now, I'd snap your hand off. They smashed Warrington at the weekend and we capitulated in somewhat embarrassing fashion to Doncaster. Oh and we have 10 injuries. And they're second in SL. Bring it on!

Everybody has injuries. It's a rough game.

Tubbs has just been on Look North.

It was a surprise to me to find that Daryl played in that 1998 Final. Here's me thinking he was on some bonding weekend in Spain.

The Bookies Have Cas as 40 Point Favourites which seems quite a lot but they are in form 2nd in Super League table. It is possible they will score 50+ but we are scoring points at the moment 270 in the last 6 (yes i know 2 are Challenge Cup matches !!) but I would fancy us to get to double figures but it should be any easy victory for castleford the best price i can find on sheffield to win is 25/1 no wonder you never see a poor bookie !!! especially as most are offering 1/250 on Castleford so if you stake £250 on castleford you would make a profit of £1 !!!!!

19 man squads:

Castleford Tigers: Tansey, Dixon, Shenton, Webster, Carney, Sneyd, Milner, Huby, Millington, Massey, Clark, Holmes, Mariano, Wheeldon, Ellis, Gibson, Clare, Finn, Reynolds.

Sheffield Eagles: Lauulu-Togagae, Burke, Hanson, Straughier, Turner, Walker, Brambani, Lillycrop, Henderson, Stringer, Aspinall, Garside, Taulapapa, Owen, Green, Davey, Tagaloa, Palmer, Ashton.

You wouldn't expect all three hookers to play, in which case at least two from Ashton, Palmer and Hanson will make the 17. Great opportunity for whichever of those lads play.
