For the record, I don't think there is much between both teams 17 but we are smart enough to build a bigger squad rather than blow a tidy sum on a player you clearly can't afford.

And it's the same on every other frigging thread too. Here's a novel idea. Return to main menu. Scroll down to the forum 'Wakefield Trinity Wildcats' and click on that. Post your negative, anti-Cas, anti-me comments on there where they care.'"
Coming from the person who likes in inflict his unbiased, fair, and totally reasonable opinion on virtually every thread on the Wakefield forum, but cries when anyone dare challenge his unbiased, fair and totally reasonable, pro-Castleford opinions on here?
For what it's worth, I think we'll do the double over you next season. We were dreadful this year, but still managed to beat you and push you close a couple of times. So with a much stronger side I can't see you causing us too many problems. In fact, if it weren't for Rangi Chase, I don't think you'd cause any problems at all.

So what were our relative finishing positions in the table?

| Quote: Fully "Hence why I said our STRONGEST 17 will beat yours. The club is in the phrase 'strongest 17'.
Having a squad is one thing but a squad of average plodders (let's face it, they are mostly) is the ideal base to work from.
The difference is that our two relegations have had a significant impact on where want[ed] to be. We didn't have much to work from and we had to pay OTT to get some decent players onboard. We're paying for that now. End of next season (2013 season) we will be infinitely stronger in depth and quality.'"
Whether you have a stronger 17 is matter of opinion but you offer no solid evidence to convince that you have a stronger 17. I’ll repeat again because its very significant point I’m making, the 30-ish game season is not played with 17 players, do you not understand the concept of a squad game?

Just what relevance is that to up and coming season?

I’m not questioning the finances of Cas what I’m questioning is how wise they have spent the budget for next season.
If your on a limited budget like us and Cas I think it’s wise to have large squad of averages players rather than one super star and a small squad of average players.

Had you read the post I was replying to, the point would have been quite clear.
However, for your benefit, the salient part read as follows "We were dreadful this year, but still managed to beat you and push you close a couple of times."[/i
Hence the question about relative finishing positions.

Yep, that's me. Unbiased, fair and reasonable. As for every post, perhaps you'd take the time to go down each page of threads on the Wakey forum over the last month or so and tell me how many posts I've made. Very few, I'd suggest, compared to yourself and other Wakey lot.

No solid evidence?
Castleford strongest 17 last season 7/7 first games before injuries hit.
Wakefield, near bottom of the league.
Yes, you have improved but our first choice starting 17 is easily a top eight side. Yours is competing for top eight (and yes, that is my opinion on Wakey's squad for the season - challenging for the top eight).
As for the latter point, what relevance did that have to the fact that our strongest 17 is better than yours? In fact, what relevance does it have to the point? Where was I arguing that the season isn't X games long and you need a squad?

If you say so cockle. I make reasonable points, I don't just argue for arguments sake. In addition to that, I also give credit where credit is due, something which you lot seem (bar a couple of people) incapable of doing. Never mind.

“our first choice starting 17 is easily a top eight side” Now that has to be a classic statement if I’ve ever heard it! Every SL team (at least from next season) could say that about themselves. But as I’ve already said the season isn’t about your first 17 it’s about your squad!

Your loss of form after the first 7 games was nothing to do with injuries it was the fact you had a favourable fixture schedule you started with. All the teams you played was in poor form, you would of no doubt won them games with squad that finished the season. Just as you would of lost the games you did with your strongest team. The reason you started losing was simply because you was playing better/inform teams.

The fact you think your opinions are resonable and any opinions you disagree with as less so speaks volumes about yourself.

Hit the nail on the head there. Very few posters think so highly of themselves.
