Proper resilience this team has now. Very very impressed with them. Not been today but Carney getting 2 must have stuck in their craw just a little

Well done Salford. The better team clearly on the day. I did feel we were going to snatch it near the end but when you intercepted the ball then went on to score again not long after I knew that was it. Decent ish following too. Made some good noise.

Brilliant result.

With 5 games now that are all winnable that gives the team confidence to go for it.

I'd settle for 3 or 4 wins out of 5.

Odds on we'll be HKR's first scalp next week then?

Well played Salford much the better side today. Cas game plan was simple and predictable and we were no match for your enthusiasm and you've defo tightened up in defense. Good game

Why way Carney marched for 10 and Massey not? Pretty obvious there that Bentham bottled it.

Good game, won by the best team. My main thoughts:
1. Dobson is still a class act. His kicking game was spot all every time and he organised the attack well on our line.
2. The first time I have said this - awful in-game decision from Powell. When we lost Dorn to injury the two options were to either put Hampshire to full-back and use Milner as a make-shift half, or put Monaghan to full-back, shift Crooks onto the wing and use McMeekan as a centre. Powell decided to put Milner onto the wing - despite having none of the attributes of a winger! Dobson took about two minutes to notice and isolate Milner, catching his completely out of position numerous times.
3. Justin Carney is always going to provide entertainment. Sin-binned in the first minute, giving penalties away whilst in possession and dropping the ball after the tackle. However, he can certainly find his way to the line given the opportunity. I was shocked he wasn't once targeted with a high ball - imagine the pressure the fans would have put him under as the ball came down, particularly with his back to the Wheldon Road End in the second half! I wish he was still in our colours, but unfortunately our players will not accept him as part of the group so he has no future at Cas. You should get him signed up ASAP, though I hear we have agreed a deal with Wigan as of next year.
4. Gareth O'Brien is a fantastic kicker. Those kind of conversions are worth their weight in gold.
5. Tommy Lee was better than I expected him to be.
6. From our point of view, Hamsphire can toddle back to Wigan. I saw nothing to suggest he has the potential to be a first-choice SL half back.

Overall, the result reflected the game. We need our injured players back ASAP (Roberts in particular) as we are much weaker without them.

Seems like a fair assessment to me. Re the injuries that your team are suffering. We had more than our fair share last year, and it refreshing to have a virtually full squad to pick from. It does mean, however, that we have some damned good players sitting on the sidelines. Just great that two of the 'lesser' teams are mixing it with the best.

I'm beginning to think that GOB is looking like our best buy of the off season so far. I thought he was good last year but his form this season so far is very impressive. A long time since we went to Cas and won by so many points. It really looks like Watson is fashioning some real consistency into the group, even when we've lost we've still give it our all, and that's all us fans really want to see. If Lui is missing for a few weeks I can see Evalds getting his chance with GOB moving into the halves with Dobson. Not a bad replacement eh?

No! O'Brien has been a revelation at full back so why move him? Evalds arrived as a half back so let's play him there. He is one of the best support players I have seen of late so give him am opportunity.

Great away day and delighted to come away with the win but my gosh didn't we made it hard for ourselves yet again.

There were so heroic efforts from some of our usual outstanding performers this year such as Josh Jones, Gareth O'Brian, Tommy Lee, Craig Kopzcak, Ben Murdoch-Masila, Justin Carney, Mark Flanagan, Junior Sau and Josh Griffin.

But having said that Logan Tomkins and Phil Joesph were horrendous and to be quite frank are championship standard and should subsequently be dropped next week for Hull KR away.

Will Matty Wilkinson get the call up next week? Evalds at full back and move O'Brian into scrum half?

With all respect, GOB is a HB playing well at FB. Mainly due to him being played as an extra HB. Evalds is a better FB than HB at this stage of his career so I can see him getting the nod at FB if GOB moves in for Lui. Of course you may be right in that Watson will stick Evalds at HB, but I seriously doubt he will do it. Evalds got Young player of the year at FB last season, it would be mad to throw him in the halves especially after having so little game time. With little game time under his belt, a run out at FB may be just what he needs.

Don't think massey did anything , according to your coach it was Webster who slapped carney, but I did think at the time how the hell can only carney go for that....in typical cas fashion, we fail to score with a man extra and actually conceded 2 points. That said, salford were far better today and well worth the win.
