| with regard to kirk dixon, a guideline i employ is ....if he was released by cas today with no fee attached how many super league clubs would show an interest ?
widnes possibly, wakefield maybe before signing sykes but no one else.
so if no good to other teams why cas?

| I think both sides need a bit more credit, there was very little shade and it was red hot.
Yet they still managed to play in an entertaining game.
2 poor sides granted but they both worked very hard.

| Quote kinleycat="kinleycat"Both teams tried there damnedest to lose this one and cas tried fractionally the harder. A thoroughly entertaining game though none the less, which is what the game of RL used to be about.
The Hull derby was the same, arguably a "bit" more skillfull but also very entertaining.
Can someone tell me where the entertainment went in game 2???'"
What do they expect when they promote a team that finished 6th in the championship

Very rare but I don't agree, hugely entertaining game, reasonable skill levels and commitment - oh well.

TBF to widnes, they were on a hiding to nothing in this game, and I would imagine their side bore little resemblance to that that finished sixth in the championship, I may be wrong.
Someone posted somewhere it ought to be 1v2, 3v4.........etc, rather than derby games, I think this makes sense, either that or scrap the whole shabang!!
It will be interesting to see how many attended the weekend.

Wouldn't be shocked if it comes out less than the combined individual attendances of the derbies when played in the teams actual stadia.

I would imagine this to be the case, although some creative accounting may prevail!!

| Maybe so, but a brilliant day out and much more fun than just another home game. Especially as the only other trips out for us cellar dwellers are London and France, which can both be v expensive.

| The attendance for the whole weekend was announced at 63k I think.
It looked well on TV, with the exception of the Catalans game.

| Sunday with four games seemed to luck a lot better attended than the saturday (unsurprisingly), but there wasn't much in it according to the stats:
Saturday 30,763
Sunday 32,953
Still down i would imagine if those games were played at the normal venues, do the clubs get a cut, or do the RFL pocket it all?

| Quote hull jackal="hull jackal"thought the best side lost!! chase still magic and orr was inspiring....unlucky'"
I did actually think the best side lost out of a very poor contest. There were some 'skills' on show from some players that would have got you dropped on a Saturday afternoon at Panthers/Walton/Lock Lane - let alone at that level.
Cas managed 16 minutes of joined up play out of the 80, where we put ourselves in a position to end sets effectively and if we had found 5 more minutes could have won, but that would have papered over the cracks of an average team performance, we didn't care for each other and the shirts enough to defend well and win.
Williams was poor, but barely had time to learn everyones names, so we see how we go. I still think this side if they got together and decided they were going ot have a dig for each are capable of winning half our remaining games.

| It was always going to be close with having two poor sides playing each other.
