GAME ON : Leeds Rhinos v Castleford Tigers - 20:00:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Strange no comments at all about this

Anyway I'll add one thing

Jamie Jones , dirty scumbag , time to retire , from playing and your media ' career '

I'd be interested to hear a Leeds fan's thoughts on Danny McGuire's performance - both tonight and this season in general. He was absolute sh*te tonight but to be fair so were most of his team mates. The dissent to get himself sin-binned should not be coming from one of the most senior members of the team.

The commentary was hilarious though

Cas gifted Leeds their points. Lucky to only lose by 11 in end Leeds. Really struggled to break us down if it wasn't for idiot play by our lads. Great win after a short turnaround though. 4 wins clear with 11 to play!!

Yeah, Cas werent gifted any of their points off the back of Hicks terrible decisions or Leeds mistakes
With that penalty count, and the amount of ball lost by Leeds, Cas could only beat them by 1 try, 2 pens, and a drop goal

McGuire was lucky not to get a red , Buchanan was lucky not to get a yellow , Singleton also could have seen yellow

Cas are arrogant and petulant , but they play the game how it should be played

They are a class above the rest at the moment despite apart from one or two players being essentially average SL players , individually their squad isn't much if any better than any other in SL , but fair do's to Powell ( who I am not the biggest fan of personally ) , he's got them playing out of their skins , very ' Murphy esc '

Everyone knew it was all over when the South Stand started singing about going to Wembley.

Cas bossed the game like they did in the lat two meetings & Hardaker's try was the cherry on the cake.

Yeah but, wait 'till the business end of the season, blah, blah.

Leeds look like a team dining on past glories, they were really up for it tonight but fell well short once again.

Even McGuire was trumped by Gale as the most irritating player in S.L.

Honestly get why people call Gale arrogant, every decent modern British half has had that about them Schofield,Long, Briers, Brought etc etc. what I don't get is how arrogant is aimed at cas this year ??? I take it as a compliment as iv never seen the word arrogant and cas together until we have been doing well, I honestly don't understand it. We'll ignore that we are playing the best rugby of my lifetime from a cas squad and not be proud of what we are doing because it's arrogant ?? I honestly don't see it ?

Why? Because the fans and club aren't allowed to celebrate success. Remember we're just a small town overshadowed by the big city of Wakefield and we shouldn't be contesting the 'big teams' or trophies.

Most of the other people complaining about arrogance seem to be fans of the 'big 4' - the ones that have had years of success and final appearances, not the ones who have had to endure years of seeing their team lose by cricket scores or relegation.

End of the day we'll keep on enjoying the victories, on their own they might not win silverware but it makes a change from losing and being at the foot of the table.

To be honest, I'm surprised it was only 3 trys to 2, the amount of unforced errors Leeds made was shocking.

We got it in the Championship when ripping teams to shreds , success generally does breed arrogance , take it as a compliment

scoreline massively flattered leeds. Cas were so much better, 23/0 would probably have been accurate. The 2 were conceded were through real stupidity and it's something we need to keep working on. Overall, in less favourable conditions to win easy at headingley I'm cool with that.
