We did lose Larne Patrick very early on with concussion and he didn't return. As we had a half back on the bench that only left us 2 forwards, debutant Savelio and Maher who didn't feature until the final 10 minutes.
Fifita looks promising and i liked the way he responded to the jibes of the Cas fans.

The sob stories on here from Cas fans you 'd have thought wakey had won.

Plus Tom Johnstone and BJB

Cool your jets! Chissit asked a question and I gave my answer. I wasn't trying to get into an argument nor have I tried to justify anywhere that we should/could have won by more!
The reason I haven't commented on wakey a injury list is that I don't know it (cos they're not my team)!

You are guilty though of shall we say gilding the lily for want of a better expression, you have players unavailable for selection so have we, and if you stopped feeling sorry for yourself for one minute you'll notice that so has every other club in SL, like us they have just rotated the squad what's available and most importantly haven't played UP the fact we've won while having injuries.
As two or three have boasted you've won with injuries and while admitting your coach does not know his best 17, then surely that devalues your claim and/or excuses when you have lost.

Well we tonked you with a full strength team in February (bar shenny) and we tonked you with loads out yesterday. Having to chop and change his side every week, are you at all surprised powell doesn't know his best team ! The same way you lot are proud of 8th and a cup semi, I'm pretty chuffed we have finished 6th, all things been even .

Aye you certainly tonked us in the first half alright, you only got on top in the last twenty minutes when we we're out on our feet from trying to cope with only one fit interchange on the bench and your bigger forwards.
You can't be that ambitious if you are happy to finish 6th at the end of the season, especially if you get those 15/16 players back into contention.

Where as Wakefield are targeting the treble next year?
Powell believed there was a chance of silverware at the start of the season as did I, but with the long layoffs of players that was never going to happen.
So finishing in 6th is a good achievement ,end of.

We're targeting the treble this year, whereas it's just a bit too late for Cas

Wow! I'll take that I could've worded it differently; that's the problem with text as you can't hear the tone etc. Aside from that I'm not feeling sorry for myself and am well aware that other clubs suffer injuries and if you have an issue with "two or three boasters" then I suggest you take that up with them as I wasn't been boasting.
You asked a question which players wouldn't have played on Sunday so I provided a list of ones that I would imagine would've played - quick tip; don't ask questions if you're not prepared to accept the answers.
Finally; I wasn't suggesting DP doesn't know his strongest line up, merely that I don't know what he thinks his strongest line up is! - cos I'm not him!
Clearly losing a game that ultimately meant little to either team still hurts a little despite some protestations.
