Hey you wanna believe that you go right ahead. For me it changed when Wood came on then when Finn started to organise it became a cricket score in the other direction THEN THE DIFFERENCE WAS MASSIVE or don't it work like that?
So for fear of being edited for being mildly confrontational I reckon you need a reality check, but then I always have.

Indeed.

So this was the ONLY bearing of the match and how it changed? Those two player's coming on for you ....that's it?
What makes you look funny is that you accused cas fans of living in a bubble in another thread!

In the last twelve months you've told us Finn is a hooker, Howarth a stand off and Annakin a centre. No offence, but I think I'll go with my own judgement thanks.

| Vastman ask Chester and Kear what they thought, your nonsensical, rose tinted ramblings are cringe worthy and embarrassing. We were miles of the pace in the first half against an excellent Cas side, they stuffed us in all departments. we turned round our performance in the second half against a much weakened Cas side. As Chester said men against boys in the first half and men against boys in the second half. Its not a big deal to accept these facts, it does not make you a turncoat or a closet Cas lover. As said by many better get that performance and attitude out of the way now rather than when points are at stake.

I agree that Finn stepped up in the second half and your boys threw it around a lot - that's what you wanna see from a side in a friendly. Some of the tries you scored were great. But you'd need to be very biased and/or a little naive to think that the floodgates didn't open when we threw all our U19's on - by the end of the match the only recognised 1st team players we had on were Chase and Monaghan, both who you guys thought were a bit crap anyway.
But like you said in another post, friendlies mean jack all. We'll see what happens in the season.

How can you not buy that? We took our main 1st team off at half time and put our 2nd team on. That doesn't change the fact that you played some great rugby.

How can you not buy that? Yes we had some kids on the field but they had more.
1st half - our first team getting pummelled by their first team
2nd half - our first pummelled their reserves/u19s.

Finn can play hooker end of why is that such a shock to you.
Howarth has played stand off if you'd red the post properly you'd have realised it was a lament that at the time he was all we had though personally I thought he was okish.
The Anakin one was similar to the Howarth comment were struggling for centres and we were all slinging names forward as potential cover. However if you want to twist things to push your weak agenda so be it.
You and belly can start a little club of your own for OTT drama queens you'll have a wail of a time.

Perhaps he enjoys being positive like most of us do or would you like the forum to be pure negativity as per Belly and his mates?

Maybe we could add Chris Chester to our club because he clearly felt the same? But what does he know?
It's always nice to beat Cas, even in a friendly, but let's not kid ourselves, Cas were head and shoulders above us. I'd hope even you saw that.
