Great draw for Castleford. Three of the top 4 will bash each other in a semi-final whilst Castleford have a week off.

A great draw for Castleford would've been for them to still be in it  |

Think I'm in an minority of one, and it feels wrong, but I didn't want to win today. It's so difficult to win the cup and the league, I'm happy for us to focus on one competition.
If we didn't stand a chance of making the grand final I'd be disappointed to have lost our chance of going to Wembley. However, we should be one home game away from Old Trafford this year, and I'd rather we focus on that.

I'm absolutely gutted not to be playing Leeds in the semis but Hull totally outmuscled us up front and got the quick play the balls which won them the game.
Never mind. Hopefully be back on it in the league where we have a healthy advantage with 12 to play.

You didn't want to win today ? Extraordinary comment. Understandable though after all the silverware we have won recently. |

Obviously Cas have enjoyed so much silverware recently the can dismiss winning a Challenge Cup. Should be concerned that they failed to show for their biggest game of the season, hardly bodes well for the playoffs.

Try telling the Irish fella on sky that he described them as the all conquering Castleford Tigers in reference to their upcoming league game at Leeds. |

I think it is so difficult to win both trophies. Hull won the cup last year and folded in league.
Wigan won the grand final after going out of the cup in the semis.
Given our position in the league at the moment, I consider going out of the cup to increase our chances of winning the grand final. |

Perhaps. But still. Saying you didn't want us to win today I still can't apprehend. I want Cas to win every game they play. |

I want to win a trophy. I think today's result gives us more chance of doing so. |

Yes and win today and we are 2 games away from winning a trophy. Not that it's a lifelong dream to see Cas win at Wembley  |
