Have to disagree. Tommy was always prepared to take the defense on and thus is more unpredictable. Teams know that Danny is always looking to pass so they tend to move up and not rush in as they know what he will do.

Tommy is still unpredictable at Wigan. Interesting point about Danny Orr made by a few people. Thinking about it when we go from left to right alot defences compress towards the middle after one goes out towards Orr. This compacted defence protects against the kick but has also been great benefit to the likes of Tony Clubb and earlier Matt Gafa as teams don't seem to rate Danny Orr's kicking game (some fans here would say rightly so).

One thing is for sure is that we will miss Danny Orr this weekend.

That's dumb. Cas are a great club and offer loads to the game, so what if they're in a small town in Yorkshire? Their support spreads a long way further than the borders of the town anyway and there are plenty of smallish towns in top level soccerball. Blackburn's hardly a metropolis, neither's Portsmouth. A good club's a good club. And Cas is definitely one of them.

We will see the RFL's vision for the future on Tue. Everything else is opinion and conjecture

Which makes it much more fun

No we won't we'll see something between their vision for the future and an appeasement of the northern heartland's clubs feelings.

Just a topic for discussion, but how much does th RFL and SL owe French Rugby League? I think there is both a duty and an advantage to help bring the French gane up to top class standard, but maybe that's fulfilled by Catalans. As such, I don't think that Toulouse should be in the mix on Tuesday.

Anyone think Mr Dorn read some of the b0110cks written here? Anyone still think he isn't good enough?

There were calls from a number of people to "sign him on"

Don't know why they want him on job-seekers allowance, surely a "sign him up" would have been a better chant for a man who grabbed a hat-trick.

Yep. Not for what we are after. We don't need a support player. And running around Melling in the form he was in was no great feat. I could probably beat him after 10 pints and a kebab.

Word on the street is that he has already!

Melling's performance was woeful.
And the excuse of just coming back from injury, is no excuse.
Alot of the time, he is able to keep up with the attacking player.. But then his decision making skills lets him down.
He tries to push the person out, and really he should just tackle the man.
And some of the breaks Castleford made, they got to Melling, and ran straight round him, with almost no effort at all.
Woeful performance.
Glad Ricky's back for Bradford, we need him for Full back.

The ones that saw Mark today, was it just me, or is he starting to gain back his bulk again?
Before he looked so skinny, but now hes started building it back up?
or is it just me?
