It was the last part about nothing special about cas which seemed a little disrespectful.

Saying that, fans of other clubs shouldn't take offence when we back our own club at home against any side. It's not that we're saying their a small club etc etc it's more than we're saying we should be winning our home games against every team in SL.

Do you think cas are special? I think they have one special player but other than a good win against hudds they've not really played any of the better teams yet and have probably had the easiest start out of any team in SL. I think they will be in the mix for a 6th to 10th place finish this year like us

I think looking at their young players like Arundel and the 2 hookers they have the potential to be a real force for some years to come if they can keep hold of them. I do actually think they play some 'special' rugby and look far better than us with ball in hand.

a false position?

they have a game in hand and are sitting in 2nd place

i went to see them yesterday and they looked very good indeed. OK so they were playing a stuttering crusaders team but we will have to be on top form to stop Chase and Orr. both of them played well and complement each other and will obviously be full of confidence

it makes me laugh people actually think Cas are a poor team - they are hell of a lot better than us these days

Eh?

We should be[i looking[/i (your word) to beat every team we play home or away.

What I said is we should be winning most of our home games, I accept there will be some teams that are significantly better than us regardless of where we play them such as Wigan and Wire.

They may have a weaker side on paper but so did Wakey. How many players from that Wakey side or Cas would honestly get in our side?

Maybe the difference is in the coaching and the fact that they have ball handlers and organisers in every pivotal position and all seem to know exactly what theyre doing as a team because of that. Watch the highlights of their trys yesterday, apart from the two halfbacks, Mathers at FB and the young hooker are in everything.

Cas's away form is an unknown at the moment - but we will have to play considerably better than we have been doing to give ourselves a chance here.

Chase and Orr both playing really well, alongside their young talent in Milner, Clark and Arundel. Won't be any push over by any measure, especially with their confidence ever growing, but we SHOULD be going into the match confident of winning at home.

This is nothing agaisnt Cas at all, in fact I've been impressed with what I've seen of them this season, however I would be expecting a win at home off the back of a confident end of an away win.

IMO we will struggle to match them in the backs, also their half-backs are clearly better than ours

i think it will take a typical hull performance of smashing them down the middle complemented with a good kicking game

We're doomed.

We weren't at full strength, McGoldrick was playing

We have only had 1 away game! Hardly a bad run is it?

Forget Chase and Orr, we haven't lost a game this season that Widders has played in


Coincidence? We will see.

So we [ishould[/i (your word) beat everyone at home other than wigan and wire?
