The booing came at half time on Sunday. The Bulls were 20-0 down and showed no signs of that margin doing anything but get bigger.

TBH, I think we're well beyond the point were we should be booing after 5 years of under performing. The players need a kick up the backside and need to realise that the fans aren't going to stand for that kind of lack of effort served up on Sunday.

Given that Cas have finished above Bradford for the last 3 seasons I am struggling with that one.

I wasn't comparing the seasonal final positions but making a point that he has an easier job in improving Cas further, MP has a larger hill to climb at Bradford in comparison.

Think Donno and the rest of the players need to quit whinging and actually improve rather than just talk about it in the T&A.

Apprently some fans have very high expectations, well not on here they don't.

squad as expected, whitehead for Bateman, no Addy. so likely to be

Kearney
Kear
Walker
Purtell
Crookes
sammut
gale
scruton
diskin
koppy
whitehead
sibbit (hopefully the penalty free version)
langley

hargreaves
joseph/Burgess
Donaldson
lestrange

I think you will find its not the bulls players reeling off the same boring lines of "we need to step it up" it's that C9ck of a journo Ross, his headlines and boring articles make the lads look bad, he hasn't got anything positive to write so he lays the lads to be fed by the wolves

My expectations aren't high, I did however expect a massive effort from the squad to kick off the season. I wanted to see some passion and pride in the shirt, it never materialised.

IMO its not Joseph or Burgess its both of them drop Sibbit or Donaldson.

Keep Donno. More chance of creting something at least. Drop Sibbit.

I think the indications during the week have been that Joseph will be given a shot

I'd certainly put him in ahead of Sibbit who did nothing last week - as the OPTA stats showed

Well said Bully Boxer-Pride, Passion and a bit of heart-thats all supporters want!

Sibbit did 45 tackles against Cats which was more than Koppy AND Scruton put together!!!! Not bad for someone who "did nothing!"

Making alot of tackles doesnt win games..carries and drives does..3 carries for 13metres is a waste of time...i would rather have a player who cant tackle but makes 175metres from 30 carries and does 6 tackle busts..at least hes going forward...best moment for me was when kear ran across the line..looked to be going nowhere saw a gap and made a tackle bust bang 30yards....not watching sibbit be third man in at a tackle.

Same team as last week, better book their ideas up.
