But next season we just have to be a top 5 team to make the playoffs. Now where did we finish last season and where are we currently with one game left to go?

Not much to say about that one - busted up and trying some crazy plays, with early injuries putting us even more out of shape; Cas were always gonna cruise home.

Watching them in motion though reiterates what I said earlier - when they're running, the passes are quick, crisp and accurate - so they get it to the edges really smoothly and that causes problems; by contrast, we try it, and someone drops it, is out of position, or the pass is crap. They just execute way better than we do - fact.

There is playing expansive and then there is playing stupid, what Grix did from the kickoff was just plain ridiculous for me followed by short kick offs etc. If they had played the basics and earned the right to try these things when they were suitable then we might of just given them a game but gifting them possession the way we did just killed us and left me feeling like I made a mistake by actually attending.

Hopefully Wire will rest a good few next week and we can beat them to retain the 5th spot.

Think the Grix play in the opening set was a planned move, that was just poorly executed.

I think if the kick had more on it, BJB would have won the foot race, and would probably have scored.

beaten by a class team who play fantastic attacking RL like it used to be played credit where it is due and good luck in the semi final

There fullback is no slouch and he was dropped back on the 40 yard line, do you really think he would have made that ground up? It just wasn't on no matter how the kick was executed, if it was a planned play then we should have pulled out the minute we saw the position of there FB.

Something tells me they will win the GF this year, they have gone under the radar a little and Powell seems to have learnt a lot of lessons from last season. I just feel there is a lot more to come from them.

Cas are decent but having watched the Saints team absolutely muller Wire on Saturday, I can't see anyone getting near them. Saints are a level above everyone else and that includes Cas.

I actually think the GF winner will come from the Wigan v Cas semi.

Wigan will want to throw everything at this with Tomkins and Mr Pieman himself leaving at the end of the season.

Yep, out of the two I would rather play Saints over Wigan - If Cas can get past Wigan at there place (Which I think they will...Just) then I think they will go on to win it.

Why? Tomkins has already shown his complete lack of commitment to the club this season already, he`s on wind down for a 3 year holiday he booked earlier this year. Wigan are a tough team to beat but I think that is now very little to do with Tomkins.

You obviously didn’t see him against Huddersfield, I for one enjoyed a three course meal with Ken Davy prior to the match and watched the game from the private seating area so I had an outstanding view.

Okay then

Think the ref will have a big say in this one, expecting a close game but Wigan being Wigan will certainly know how to get the ref in their control in order to get the most out of this game.
