Yes your right but it annoys me when the term cup final is used when ever we play a super league teams its very condescending. especially when its used by cas fans who have never even won the title. I may be living in the past but i still see Rovers as a top flight club iv seen us win the league and the cup at wembley, its worth remembering we were never relegated from the top flight, booted out for the good of the game in 1996, and for what?????. Having said all that i cant wait for saturday

Agreed - without Chicko it would have been embarrassing.

Imaging what would have happened with Faloon in the 9 shirt.

We were so lucky that Kelly had a nightmare for them. If they had only converted half the efforts they had in our 20 we'd have been well beaten.
I can't recall having been so deflated by a winning performance.
The only saving grace was our defence.
On that showing after watching Leigh vs Salford yesterday we'll struggle against both of them.
We were bl**dy woeful.

spot on with all that. if changes are not made for next year we will struggle massively again

I look at Cas' squad & think that there are very few players who would improve our squad (Gale is probably the exception) & I look at their current injury situation yet still they can beat the two (alleged) form teams at the top of superleague.
The only difference can then be their coaching compared to ours.
We must beef up our coaching set-up before anything else.
The current contracts mean that wholesale changes can't & won't happen so all that GH can realistically change are the coaches & other backroom staff.
Will that happen? Who knows?

Agree. Anybody still defending our coaching set up needs to be sent to Coventry (or to Spain where the epitome of McDermott acolytes seem to reside)....

Yes we need to desperately retain our 'lucky find' and recruit a decent game controlling HB....but most of all we need a new coaching set up.
