| As an outsider looking in, I'd say for the improvement in defence alone Powell has been a massive improvement for Cas.
I also think letting Chase go was a good move. Cas now appear to play like a team, rather than the Pied Piper with his followers!

Exactly. They all seem to be playing as a unit instead of expecting Chase to create all the plays. It's great to watch.

| Average scoreline this year is 33-11 to Cas.
If you only give up 11 points a game then you're going to be winning 90% of the time. Defence is an effort thing, Powell has them putting in that effort and it's great to watch.

Indeed, its like living in a dream world watching them now than it was under Millward.
Even when we got some dubious calls against us we seem to play stronger, I will add we appear a lot fitter as a team than, probably when Stuart Raper was coach.
Proud of them tonight...well done the boys and all the coaching staff!

| Makes you wonder whether Dixon was injured or whether they were just mixing the team up a little bit. I think his kicking duties are officially taken by Sneyd now

Sky said he wasn't injured and that Powell just gave him the night off for a rest.

| The kicking game is much better this year hence less defending in key areas.

| Hey looks like yourselves and my team the Vikings are showing the supposed fancied teams that we have something special and both our team ethics are outwaying the superstar names. looks like neither of us will be in the mix to go down but me thinks there maybe a surprise name. Well done

Ah right, I tuned in a bit late so missed the teams at the beginning. It's a breath of fresh air to have such depth in the squad that we're able to actually give players weeks off.

Definitely - Chase was good with the ball in hands but his kicking game was v. hit & miss

| I can see a massive difference in cas this year and that is you look like a team. Powell did it at fev and destroyed a decent widnes team more than a few times whilst there with tough defence. Table looks good with your mob up there and my vikings just behind, keep it going boys and best of luck for the season apart from when you play on plastic!!!

24084.jpg Disco - Expansion of the game is a good thing, undoubtedly, but in the main what people simply want to assert is that you don't kill the roots to spread the tree.
The Curtism - The battles are fought on the field and the friends are made in the bar. There's no hatred among real men.
