The trick with stars in a salary caped sport is to make your own rather than buy them in.
Powell helped make and develop a generation of stars from our academy when he was at Leeds. A lot of your players (Clarke and Huby being the most obvious exceptions I guess?) weren't stars at the start of the year. But they are now. A couple of (as it turns out, very astute) signings in the likes of Finn and Hauraki that I wasn't convinced by at the time have also worked very well for you.
Thoroughly deserve it this season. I have always thought that for a league title Cas were sometimes too inconsistent but in the knockout comps were always capable of beating anyone. You have beaten us twice ( Wigan) and in good style.
For me you are a far better team this year for one simple reason - NO Rangi Chase. You are better organised and aware of what is happening than when he was playing. (To individualistic)
Congratatulations to the coach (must be coach of the year) and all involved and good luck for Saturday
