With Weyman and Poore missing we will have a fairly young pack with the exception of Langley and Costigan and my main worry for this game is that our young forwards give away too many penalties and Cas have shown that they can score points.

If the team can keep the penalty count down to 6-8 for the whole game then I fancy us to overpower them otherwise I can see Cas having a few purple patches which will result in tries.

A well poised game I think - could go either way.

First win in 20 years I knew it was due. Daryl Powell's!!!

Firstly, congratulations to Cas, who were excellent. Defended manfully and stuck rigidly to their game plan.

I've always liked Sneyd since I first saw him at Salford three, maybe four seasons ago. Kicked immaculately and did what out halves completely failed to do, bossed the game.

I don't think we were as awful as everyone else thinks we were but we were unforgivably out enthused at home.

Defence.

Jesus. We need a specialist defence coach. The structures and patterns are all wrong. We're neither sliding, effecting an umbrella or moving up as one and the less said about ur ability to scramble the better. Line speed is pathetic which points to a worrying lack of fitness.

Green (awful knock on aside) and Cox both went well, it's the senior players that are just not turning up.

A truly clueless performance from our halves who created nothing. Last tackle plays that have no thought, direction or invention.

Unlike others, I'm going to cut Keating some early game slack, but Burns? Strutting about like you're Cock O' The North, whining like a massive fanny and constant niggling will get you nowhere at this level apart from make you look, as he currently does, like a huge festering bag of putrid pus ready to explode off the backside of the world's sweatiest, most diseased Bangkok hooker.

The Hammersmith Express was clearly the man of the match, I can only guess that the sponsors wife wanted to fellate Burns after the game.

Absolute Classic Sandra you have put a smile on my face today with your description if a Bangkok hooker! At the end of the day defence wins matches , the same players are making the same mistakes as last year running out of the line and missing tackles. I was expecting a win last night but not expecting anything else from the first five fixtures. Attack wise it seemed all too rushed with no composure and too many mistakes.Back to the drawing board CS get the defensive structure sorted and stop this running out of the line.

The "Welcome" signs for Cas fans were pure class. Just a detail but excellent, well done.
