| Quote: morleys_deckchair "I loved that last night.... You could see the players were keen to make an impression after last week.. BMM mentioned last week post match and so did price... There has obviously been alot of discussion amongst the players and staff about putting that right and it showed... The coach made changes and the players stepped up their intensity.
There were some outstanding displays from the pack, who really set the foundation for this win by smashing cas pack to pieces.... Philbin, Cooper, BMM, Hill.... But the stand outs for me were Clark and Westwood... Clark was EVERYWHERE.
Austin again looked like a real threat ..... I love the way he runs at the line and makes those little passes for runners to thunder onto. The BMM try was an obvious example of this. But when you watch him closely, he is always looking for that kind of option... defenders dont know if he is going straight past them, or if the man next to him is. Once the rest of the players get fully switched into his game, we will see what a threat he really is. I'm really excited about him.
Patton was steady... He recovered well from a few terrible kicks to make that superb pass for Mamo's try... I'm hoping an extended run in the team will see him mature and get confidence, which will hopefully mean we begin to see less of the mistakes.
Great to see Curry back as well..... plenty of positives from last night.
Great game.'"
It was a really poor game in which Warrington didn’t look a great deal better than a team with about 10 first team players out.

| As a slight aside, I thought pre-match buildup was great last night. I used to be a turn up 5 mins before kick off guy but these days I'm in a good oooh 7 mins before.
Whether you thought the human video board or any other aspect of the gameday presentation was good, bad or you don't care, the club deserve huge credit for putting on a show rather than just a match.
Lots of other clubs, in fact [imost[/i other clubs should take note.

| Hope Bryson's leg hasn't fallen off, the moving of leg from behind then being pulled over by the same player (and assisted by two team mates) was very dangerous.

| My prediction of a 14 point win for Wire was spot on! I thought we started well and looked good for the first 15 or so. Had Mcshane taken in Watts pass it could have been a different game.
Once you scored and came at us a bit more we couldn't cope especially on our right edge. Minikin left Clare stranded a few times and Rankin and Minikins pathetic attempts on Hughes were cringe.
Better team won though. BMM is a huge lad and Daz Clark had his usual busy game against us.
Enjoyed my first visit to the Halliwell Jones stadium. Despite the loss I thought there were some positives for Cas.
Good luck for the rest of the year and enjoy your trip to The Jungle later in the year when you visit.

| Thought you're bench went better than expected, Foster was a handful. Shows in the HT, and FT scorelines, that the reduction in the amount of subs hasn't made scoring points any easier.

| So who were Castleford's ten injured players?
Looking at the website injured from their 1 to 17 were Gayle, McMeekan, Holmes and Milner. In reality you could easily say that two of them would be on the bench behind JSL, Moors and Massey whilst Rankin has been brought in to address Gayle's injury.
Looking at the website it seems to me that Cas do not have a great deal of depth in their squad.

Didn't make any signings in the offseason either.

| Gale, Mcmeeken, Milner, Holmes, Maher, Clark, Roberts, Ellis are the injured ones. Millington banned for 2 games so 9 missing. Out of all of them id say 6 would have featured last night. The 6 being Gale, Mcmeeken, Holmes, Milner, Millington and Clark.

That's a fare post. Keep in around the top 3. Come backend you'll be a tough cookie

I think I've broken the code. 108 = hole

So which 6 from last night would miss out? Saying Clark would be in your seventeen is stretching it.
The good thing is Daryl Powell didn't use it as an excuse and was at pains in his post game interviews with Sky and Radio 5extra to point out missing the ten(sic) injured players was not an excuse he was using for defeat.

Mitch Clark was named in our 17 for the Hull game and got injured in his first hit up. He played alot last year and was very impressive for us. He would have been in the team last night for sure.
Egodo, O'Neill, Rankin and Clarkson wouldn't have played if everyone was fit. Cook potentially aswell. That's 5 so maybe 6 was one too many.

It is difficult to use it (Gale) as an excuse, as us with Dec, when we've both gone 4/5 and sitting pretty...
You could argue that if Gale and Brown were both playing, the result last night would still be the same.

Great to see Currie back!
