 Leeds Into The Six After Derby Win Over CastlefordThe West Yorkshire derby had it all to play for as Castleford Tigers travelled the short distance to Headingley to take on the arch enemy the Leeds Rhinos as both sides desperately needed the two points on offer. The visitors couldn’t improve their league position with a win but could increase the gap between themselves and the bottom two club while the Rhinos knew that a win by more than twelve points would lift them into the top six, at least for the next twenty hours. The Rhinos were handicapped by ten on the coupon, the bookies thinking that it would be a Rhinos win but not necessarily a convincing one. READ MORE ON THIS STORY... |

Not a perfect performance, but we played with good energy in attack and defence.

Much better all round performance and much more aggressive.
Again is that because of who we are playing?
Forwards running harder and not much passive defence going on this time.
Mik, Martin, O`connor, Handley and Croft the best of our lot.
Newman worse player in our team again today.
And why is it when he makes a mistake it`s someone else`s fault.
Grow up lad and get focussed on playing the game otherwise you are going to be another Jake Connor.
Smith bombing a certain try first half with a 2 man overlap.
A bit more skill and we would have scored 50 tonight.

Re Newman, tough decisions need to be made. His behaviour is a disgrace. In this sport, the ‘team’ is everything. Weird guy.
Cam Smith needs to return to basics. He’s not a half back. There’s a good player in there. He found it too easy at academy level.
Croft was excellent. Real work ethic. Johnson is an out and out hooker, it’ll be a shame to lose him.

Cas were rubbish and they seemed to be using forwards as half backs, however there were some real positives, mainly we we aggressive in defence and there was more structure. Just a few bits of skill let us down other wise it would have been 50+
Both Cam Smith and Harry Newman had shockers though, they need to work on some stuff because that’s not good enough for two senior players.
Frawley, Martin, Mom, oconner and Croft were my picks of the players.

Welsby wins things at least.
Newman is a petulant child with ZERO, I repeat ZERO trophies. |

Agree on Newman, believes his own hype.. We must have 2 of the worst centres in the league.. Neither have done anything this season.
Also agree on the other players mentioned. I presume Roberts was dropped for Alfie?
Can't take anything from this game with regards to "how good are we really" as Cas were garbage.... Still lack any real punch in the middle. Still don't rate Frawley.. it's easy to look like world beaters against poor opposition... but it's a win, 2 points and hopefully a bit of positivity for the team. |

Newman needs dropping until his attitude improves. Thought cam smith was again poor today. Constantly last to get back inside, holding the ball too long and killing moves. On a plus thought Miller was decent and frawley looked good. Still missing a good bit of go forward from the props though at beginning of matches

I'll take the win but for mine that's the worst Cas team I've seen in nearly 50 years.

I've said before, Cam Smith's instincts are all wrong about what he needs to do when the team isn't playing that well. He wants to get involved but he ends up just getting in the way. He needs to simplify his game and focus on just banging in on attack and defence, and trying to pass much less often. He's way too slow in thought and action to try to act as a playmaker.

Take the win, and more comfortable than a lot of us predicted
As already mentioned, Smith and Newman, both awful
Martin, croft and Handley all good
Momerovski offers very little ball in hand, he dosnt look lightweight, but certainly runs like it, was solid defensively to be fair, with 1 very good read.
