Couldn't be happier for Austin.

Playing well. Got to take into account the opposition but we have looked pretty good tonight. Sinfield has done well and Walters has distributed well also

I know it doesn’t make any tangible difference, but it’s a real positive for the likes of Sinfield who have come into the team for some hammerings, to instead be involved in something positive.

You can only play what’s in front of you

He’s done nothing apart from moan and 2 poor kicks. Cas very poor, we’ve done well and played with intensity and good spirit.
Perhaps Cas players have all been told it’s £40k a year from now on.they have made a lot of errors, we’ve made some poor ones but had plenty of field position for a change.

Great to see the sinfield interception.

Lisone very lucky there

Inknow its only Cas but Sinfield is bossing the game, great to see

Good to hear. He’s not ready yet, but I do think there’s a good player there.

Memo to Arthur - Fat lot you know!

Smith out

He was my man of the match. Looked like the only real half on the field and really took the ball to the line. His kicking to Fusitua was excellent and put into perspective how lame Austin and Sezer's efforts have been in that regard. It was an exciting glimpse of the player he will hopefully become. For all the talk of protests there were 15k there tonight. Really glad the team give us something to cheer about.

I had similar thoughts before hand .

Good way to end a bad season

Prophetic mate this….

Fus could have had five tries if someone had kicked for him earlier - he is very hard to handle in the air.

Weird weird game. Thoughts:
* Newman had his best game for ages
* Our right side of Fus, Newman, McDonnell and Sinfield looked very dangerous
* Gutted we are losing Walters still why why why
* Mik had a good dig
* great to see CJ organising the side and I thought we looked much better with him in at DH. For me I’d be starting with him at 9 next year - don’t sign an over the hill hooker we have bags of talent - getting H Smith from Wakey could be a great complement to Johnson.

Sinfield made a huge difference tonight, that’s more like he plays in the academy.

For all the talk of Newman not being able to pass he set at least 2 trys up with some classy centre play and he kelt his emotions in check more of that Harry lad!

If Fusitua can stay fit hes a real asset

There was a point where Fus got whacked a bit in a tackle, he played the ball and then went right back up the middle again to challenge the same defenders and I loved that.

Also loved the niggle between ex-Academy teammates Johnson and Broadbent.

Cas were ghastly though.
