You lost, that's why your 9 points behind us... for the first time against you we played 6.5/10 and we won. We are top of the league by such a margin because when we play our best we consistently win.

Back to back wins in rainy conditions against sides in the top 4 (surely cas aren't any good in the rain so they will lose on a rainy night at old trafford), 10/10 at home this season, over 11 months unbeaten at home, effectively 9 points clear at the top and we just about ended the Hull FC jinx over us. Thought we were 7/10 last week and 6/10 tonight. Whilst I'm sure there's more to come from Hull rest assured , there is from us too.

It's interesting to see that when Cas come up against a good defence and can't utilise the standard overlap to Eden there performance gets scored a 6 out of 10. In that case I would score Hull 4 out of 10 for the terrible completion rate.

I honestly think Castleford are done
for myself and would be surprised to see them make the grand final. That's not sour grapes either I hope they win it if we don't but I can't see them in the GF. It's the time of year when teams raise there game and I'm interested to see if Cas can go with them.

NINE league wins in a row and we are done

I don't think you can write Cas off, they are a very good side, if they can learn from the cup game, which in some ways they did last night, they won't be far off, remind me of us last year, EE faded, but had enough to win a trophy

The amount of mental and physical energy burnt in the cup final last year, it was understandable you faded a little. Sadly we don't have that distraction. We will have opportunities to rest players in the run up the a 2 game playoff series (1 at home) so I'm fairly optimistic we can avoid the burnout scenario. With Junior Moors back late August as well, will be a timely boost.

Loving the Cas Tigers obituaries on here.

The LLS is all but done and dusted in record time but still some people doubt the ability cas have.guess time will tell but you wouldn't back against a team that hasn't lost at home in nearly 12 month in a play off game.

Thought you'd have been at the game.
Or where you still on the Salford board telling them theyre not signing Rangi Chase?

Forget it. We are finished. Garbage. Powell should be sacked Cas are bad. Don't think I'll bother attending again this season.

In a high intensity play off game, id still back Hull Leeds or Wigan, home or away.
Until Cas prove they can win those games, my opinion won't change.
Not a dig by the way, you are a great team, but as yet unproven in the big games.

Good luck for the rest of the season

You are right cas are untested in high intensity finals.
I've always seen hull as my second team but I've got to be honest after 1 slightly lucky comeback win at Wembley last year I don't see how you can rank yourselves with Leeds and Wigan as big game specialists.

I think Cas will probably go unbeaten at home to be honest and make the grand final. I reckon Hull win a Cas v Hull grand final though, especially if Ellis is fit by then.

Agreed we arent at the levels of Wigan or Leeds, but we HAVE won pressure games recently, one of them very recently......
Genuine question, how many of the current tigers have won a major trophy?

Hull were only 4/10 so you're fubar'd if we ever get above 5 against you
