Win these two and we're looking good IMO.

However....these are exactly the kind of fixtures we've come unstuck in with depressing regularity in the McD years.

you see he spoiled the universal admiration that Cas were getting last year by his strutting that spilled over to the Cas fans .Its not just from the Leeds fans . You were very ungracious even before you got to OT .Rubbed a lot of noses in it and none more so than Mr Gale

Big difference Mcguire was twice as good & never as arrogant.

Absolute rubbish. Mcgurire was never even half as cocky as gale was last season, despite having loads of winners medals more reason to be.

Saying that, i thought gale came across very well in the after match interviews and analysis on sky last night, which was good to see. He's a good player and cas play some brilliant stuff, but there arrogance last season quickly turned opposition fans admiration of them into a dislike for them.

Maybe the grand final highlighted that what you do to leeds throughout the regular season isnt worth getting overly excited about, whilst its good to get the win, come playoff time they're a differant proposition.

With all due respect your fans wrote the book on being ungracious win, lose or draw.

Leeds fans never stood outside OT and ridiculed the opposition fans saying things like ' why bother turning up? 'etc Ive been on other forums and they answered the Cas fans comments about last nights game one said 'that comment just reminded me of how I was just a bit chuffed when cas lost in the GF' and that was from a Wire fan .they were great to us after they hammered us twice at Wembley

Trust me there was tonnes of disrespect towards Saints as I went to every grand final between the 2 sides. Daft chavs from leeds referring to St Helens as your "grand final bitches" . Leeds fans are the King's of belitting every other sides achievements.

where have all these Castleford fans come from? everytme Ive ventured on their board it looks like no ones been on it for ages .

I've been posting on rlfans best part of a decade. Cas fan's generally use cas forum. Similar to Saints salford widnes type of forums.

Of course he was, that's why Luke was voted by his fellow Pros for Man of Steel last season. Something Danny Boy has never won.

I'm sure he's gutted when he looks at his 8 GF rings, 2 CC medals, 3 WCC medals, 3 LLS wins and 2 Harry Sunderland awards

between those two players there is no comparison and I wonder what was said between Gale and Delaney
