| Quote: imwakefieldtillidie "Did anyone watch that game and still think that Grix is a better option than Jowitt? I'm happy enough with him as cover, but Max must surely go straight back in. Huby didn't look fit enough for me, and I just don't think Anthony Walker is up to Super League standard. Having Fifita and England to come in will make a big difference.
Positives for me were James Batchelor and Kyle Wood, we looked a much better side with them on the pitch. Ashurst and Tupou got better has the game went on. Liam Finn coming showed that having three halves to pick from will help as the season goes on, and MCB, Johnstone and BJB showed that we've got some pace and depth out wide.
Only a friendly but it's always nice to beat them.'"
You're right about the 3 halves Williams will get better Finn played well. The pre season friendly did its job plenty to take from it and also plenty to work on.
Up the Trin

| Trinity fans get local bragging rights ... for now and Powell will probably have come away the happier of the 2 coaches.
As long as neither side had any injuries it's all good.

| Quote: Prince Buster "From a Trinity perspective I think the stand out moment was when Kyle Wood came on he made a huge difference and looked very involved in all our best stuff.
On the downside our right edge defence of Williams, Lynee and MCB looked 'confused' when tested.
I also thought the main difference in first 20 minutes was the kicking games, ours was clueless where as Cas put some really telling kicks in'"
It was all about execution.
When Wood came on we visibly improved and when Finn came on we had a brain.
Truth is Finn is the key man and for me it's who plays with him. We know Miller can and I thought Williams was far better when with Finn. I see fin as fidget choce H/B and Williams his partner. Miller may well the round peg but then it may be Miller.
Wood looked first choice 9 all the way and bothered the hell out of Cas, Sio to give him a rest.
Over all I'm happy to have beaten them by 7 - 5 tries especially after being 30 points down, shows some spirit no matter what the positions alleged status.

| Did anyone notice Gale grab at Kirmonds beard to goad him.
Maybe hes wanting to make a wig.
On a serious note, wasnt Tadulala banned for pulling big Eorls hair.

| Obviously terrible first half. Our own worst enemy at times especially our kicking game. We looked flat and ready to roll over and take a battering. Game changer as others have said was the introduction of Finn and the offloading from Huby.
To quote Stevo, Finn could have played in a dinner suit today. Just controlled everything. Milky was poor but everyone has a bad day every now and again. Thought our frontrow put in a massive shift with Allgood going off and Hurst not putting in a long shift. Huby wasn't just offloading, he was offloading late which killed Cas and allowed our halves and hookers to chew up the yards.
Not a great overall performance however must give the lads confidence going into the season to comeback into it like they did.

Kirmo would have pulled his head off if got the chance, some cheap shots in the same tackle by the upside down head.

McShane went in every time with the elbow. I'd have love to see one of out big lads give him one back.

| Did anyone else think that the ref changed his "style" in the second half ?
Cas were doing all sorts to slow the play down in the first half but, after the break, we seemed to get some penalties.
Also, has there been a change to the "advantage" rule as the ref allowed play to go on after an offence and then went back and gave pelalties afterwards (instead of blowing up when the offence was committed).

| I thought huby did ok today.
First game and ended up doing big minutes because of injuries to allgood, (who put some good tackles in until he we t off).
First half cas did have a great kicking game(gale 40 20)but we didn't help ourselves with the mistakes (cation brown dropped ball) and penalties (holding down).
Second half ...started to catch cas out with the offload.. And wood and Finn stood out with arona doing plenty of work as always...
A few of our players taking knocks, hope nothing too serious ..

| Yes lets hope all is good with Allgood. Didnt Hirst go off too and TJ appeared to pick up a knock.
Arona went well again. I like Arona. Not our biggest forward but got a big heart and hits hard, all with a smile on his face. He was trying to gee up the North Stand as we were on with the comeback.
