Now, Cas fans being as they are and accustomed to winning one we might not expect to and then losing one we 'should' win!!!! So I am trying not to be a neg-head.

I just hope we're more mature and stronger than in some recent seasons and we win one when we're supposed to - when form, quality across the squad and home advantage says we should.

Close at half time, but 14 points in it by the end. (I hope)

just watched the highlights of wakey and salford on superleague.co.uk.

My thoughts were that they look shocking in defence and after wakey scored the 3rd try there heads went down, Get in to em early and i think we can walk over em.

Not too concerned by how many we score, rather how many we concede. I want to see real improvement from Cas this year and that, in my eyes, means "shut outs".
That said keep them to anything under 12 and I think that'll be ok.

don't get carried away like you did against the quins. salford has some great players, and some decent forwards that i think will match cas's forwards. if alker and 1 or 2 others fire there could be an upset. the first half at wakey,don't think they really got going. they gave it a good shot in the second half and were unlucky not to win the second half, but there again wakey were 8 first team players out. so i'd say cas by 6

Will be very surprised if it's only 6point margin, reckon more like 20 and to say Salford have some great players is a little bit wide of the mark, only player I think could be even classed as even outstanding (let alone great) is Mr Paul, Mr Brown!
Having said all of that, we really have to be on top of our game and not take the reds too lightly.

I don't want to repeat that for poor Mr brown, so deleted duplicate post.

I love the way some people think that the fans who post on this forum are actually the team or the coaching staff.

It's almost as if what we say on here is the view of the club itself.

Unless, of course, Mr. Brown is himself a....

to mr brown robbie paul is passed it and i am a salford fan.we have a kid who is far better but cant get in the 17 stefan ratchford.mr paul picks and chooses is games.

You will find that Ratchford will fall short of SL standerd just like young Thackery did at Cas they look ideal in NL1 but it is another ball game in this league.

A weakened wakey gave them a good hammering and you think we'll sneak a small win by a converted try?

I'm starting to think you don't rate/like Cas that much

that was last week though.

hopefully we can put in a few good performances just like cas last season and i'll be satisfied.

this league is getting harder and harder to predict

i'm going for a cas win by 8. if the efforts there i'll be happy with my team

agree with you mate. thought they played better with alker, don't really rate paul.

Cas 32 - Salford 10

Owen hat-trick, McGoldrick MOTM

So Cas won't be up for it? Wanting to make amends for a poor first home game and on the back of a good win against Wigan, yeah, I can see them struggling for motivation.

Jog on.
