I've read a few comments about how cas weren't that good , but I thought (as was the case last year at magic) that some of our trys were quality.

Thanks for that Wakeyrule.

At the end of the day some Wakefield fans have been really been talking us down. Prior to the game we were nothing special, just average and playing above our level. It seems that because we're rivals, it's hard to give any sort of credit to us (if anything the bitterness, envy, sourness is from the opposite side not from my side). But you're right - I should have held back - but I find it hard to when such nonsense (IMO) is said. No doubt some people will say it'd be same if boot was on other foot; well I'd like to think the majority of fans gave Wakey credit last season when you hammered us and said how good you played, despite our own shortcomings.

Now we've tonked you and put 50 on us some of your fans STILL can't give credit to Cas, can't admit that we've got some quality players in our side and believe that Wakey's team is at a similar level to us. For instance, someone posted that Daryl Clark is not as good as McShane. Even AFTER he's ripped you to shreds as he has done for most of the season. Justin Carney is just an average plodder who isn't any good despite scoring over a try per game in all competitions and including running through four of your players. The list continues.

So forgive me for having a jovial little dig at those people. At the end of the day, I think most Cas fans will agree we're surpassing expectations but it's not undeserved and our position is justifiably so. It would be nice for some people to give us some due credit for once. We are the top scorers in Super League and a defensive record that ties up with some of the other bigger clubs in the league. If we aren't a contender for a top 6, top 4 finish now then I'll eat my hat.

But for Wakey to compare themselves to Cas would be having expectations beyond what they should be. As people have pointed out, it's a new rebuilt side with very little time to gel and bed together, whereas we've only lost a couple of players and in the rest of the positions we've had a lot of stability without any need to bed in. In addition to that, there has been a lack of depth and inexperience at times to fulfil voids left by the likes of Tautai and Lauitiiti and in the three-quarters. This was only ever about avoiding the drop and any other gains were major positives. It's not nice getting sucker-punched by your rivals in a one-sided score but I don't think there's any shame in admitting that the opposition is reaching their potential and putting together quality performances.

The "lump of lard" comments on the Wakey board directed to Carney before the match was one of those instances Fully when you just knew you have to save it up until the carnage is over.

Smugness personifed for me - and I don't mind admitting it!

Funny how Vasty pants was back trolling when Wakey won a few games and now he's back under his bridge again.

In vastys mind he genuinely believes that Wakefield are as good as Cas. One of our worst performances this year came when we beat them 43-20 and then we blitzed them 50-12 on sunday. At best we are a well drilled team and wakey should be up there with his...


As for the mcshane is better then clark....and we are the nutjobs?

Really enjoying watching Cas play this season,and that coming from a Rhinos fan by the way bumped into Richie Mathers the other day ,arrogant t****r Why did Millward boot him out of Cas ,love to know !!

Millward changed a few things round at Cas Tigers when he started including the early morning training schedule. I heard the 7am starts played havoc with Ritchie's golf swing.

Not forgetting his greatest comment ever.... Luke Walshaw is super leagues answer to Greg Inglis

Could he be Raj Poot Wildcat ? I have'nt heard owt from him for ages on the other forum.

Maybe he's been lumping so much money on his team beating us this year he can't afford an internet connection
