One game he can be one of the best the next he is an error waiting to happen. He has obviously improved the Castleford’s performances.

The lad can score tries, no doubt about it, but in games I've seen on tv most of the time he's got a clear run to the line, his team mates having engineered the overlap. For a lot of Tom's tries he's got men to beat on the way to the line. Not often he gets a clear run to the line.

Eden's raw pace makes him always a threat but his habit of going for an interception is his main weakness followed by errors collecting kicks. Against Hull KR he also threw two wild passes that let the opposition off the hook.
We can't afford to give him space to run but must give him the ball. Simples.

My spell check on my new phone makes it look like I'm auditioning for Allo Allo

I agrue Pip Turt

Travelling back north tomorrow but I think I'm going to give this game a miss.
Just couldn't stand another loss against this mob and to watch it would ruin the weekend.

Poor form that Lampy...if we all did that the ground would be empty and the club would go out of business

I have learnt the hard way not to criticise a player until after the match!

Well done.
The modern fair-weather fan.

I'm heading the other way - up to Aberdeen, 380 miles - but I've delayed the departure to get to the match. The players have said how important the crowd is and the Cas fans know that and will be out in force. We have to match them - not just on the field but on the terraces. It's our home game and all the players need to feel that from the crowd.

Enjoyed chatting to some Wakey fans on Sunday. Knowledgable RL fans.

Good luck this week, you’re due a win against Cas and seem to be moving in the right direction.

Hopefully TJ and fifita back to add a bit of spark.

If we’re within a 100 miles of this game Purim’s army couldn’t stop me from going… I regularly commuted from both Derby and Malton to home games when I lived in the UK.

The only thing (xcept from family) I miss about the UK is Trinity games and Belle Vue

Bit tragic.

Your choice.

Bit harsh Vasty.
To be fair to him, the pain of those defeats is bloody painful and I don't blame him in some ways.
I have literally left BV feeling sick, the game where we were 16-0 (I think?) up at HT only to lost to a Luke Gale drop goal springs to mind.
They are tough losses to take, especially so many.
I get that when we do finally beat them it will be amazing though.

Imho winning this game will be a lot easier if we do two things. One we take it seriously but not to seriously. Two, we wise up to McShane and his box of tricks.

Like everyone else I’m nervous and not willing to predict but I will be there shouting in support,

I had three aims this season.

Avoid relegation.

Beat Cas

Play well for once in the CCup.

We’ve managed one even if we dropped out in the end so we are still on track hopefully.
