good post mate i saw Chris green and Jason Crookes both out there in the warm up don't no if anyone else spotted him? i think it will be hard to drop lineham but Crookes was playing well before the injury id say just swap them both to keep them fresh every now and again good to have that depth in the wings though!

Oh, and also: Welcome back the real Danny Houghton, we've missed you for a few games.

Well on tonight's performance I think it would be hard to disagree if that happened next week.

Agree with the patience bit. Thought lynch went well personally and more so 2nd spell.

Thought watts looked really trim but 1st impressions are he's not lost anything though. Strong 1st game back.

Decent enough performance, should keep the drama queens at bay for the week at least. Ha

Thought Lynch started the second half badly/sloppily but recovered. Still not up to last year's standard IMO.

When tickle started fighting i though (i could be wrong) he got caught with a high tackle, a few did go by the way side for both teams... Now for me if ganson had blown for it it then none of that would have happened? Maybe im wrong just how i saw it. Besides, good effort from everyone tonight, nothing to get too excited by but i was more impressed with the work rate. Most fans dont care too much about winning or losing, they just want to see the team trying their best. Think they did tonight.



Well done

Can't argue against that scoreline even though Cas were $h17 . Much better test next week to see were we are.

We could have won by more! Heremaia almost through. Yeaman should have got a penalty try. If that wasn't at least a penalty for the shove off the ball in a certain try-scoring position, then it should have been a scrum because Cas knocked on and we didn't get advantage (under the new rules). Tom Briscoe made an outstanding run as well.



Thinking about it, I may get this game on DVD. Loads of highlights!

While I'd have no gripes with that, in fact I actually think Crooks offers a good deal more than Yeaman, Yeaman and Briscoe have not exactly had a great deal of good service lately. We seem to be predominantly attacking down the right edge at the moment.

Was a strange game for me. At times in the 1st half we really struggled to make much ground with ball in hand and looked a bit bereft of ideas at times but were saved by holdsworth's excellent kicking game (How we've missed a player who can kick like that since cooke left) and a cas winger who couldn't catch.



When watts and heremia came on we suddenly transformed (may have been down to cas' heads dropping) and looked like a completely different team.



2nd half we just overwhelmed them and were obviously more confident with the ball.



Defence was good for the most part all game

Fantastic to nil a side in Super League.

Great to see Watts and Bowden in, I think they both have huge potential.

Pleased for Arundel, and somewhat relieved!

Must watch a different match to everyone else,I personally thought Yeaman had a good game,ran the ball in strongly,making very good metres (he & Briscoe didn't get much ball) and had Shenton in his back pocket all night.



P.S. For anybody to suggest Gentle would of dropped Yeaman for Crookes instead of Arundal must be barking MAD,Arundal is so far behind Yeaman its scary, in fact,Crookes is miles in front of him.
