I'd give Russell the rest of the season off, to play it safe.

The Wood knock on and the ball steal decisions definitely went in our favour but the Cas fans afterwards were very gracious in defeat. Class club, hope they have another good season next year....gutted The Early Bath is no more though.

Ratchford could be the best number 13 in world rugby. Full back he is not.

Steady on

I'm casting my mind back to 1979-80 and my first season watching Wire, and the beautiful game.

I'm surrounded by speccies shouting and screaming for a crowd favourite and club hero, and I'm thinking to my 10 year old self "why are they shouting for this fella? he looks awful and makes too many mistakes.

And last night, after far too many years supporting us, another crowd favourite just looks out of his depth.

Step forward Mike Nicholas and Paul Wood. If we offer Wood another contract for next year, we (our board) need our heads testing. Wood is now a passenger, and it's PAINFUL to watch. He's a Wire great, but he's gone.

Thanks for all you've done for us, Woody. It's a sad day, but you just look lost.

Back on theme, that was a well ground out victory. No frills, and we looked like we've "kept a bit in the tank".

Onwards, Wire
