that said (and I don't necessarily agree with you about the Trinity spine) I thought Lam had a really low key game... His timing and tackle intensity were well off and his kicking was very disappointing... Whoever chose him for mvp must have been either blind or stupid!

We could have targeted Cini, especially with our backline, so I'm slightly disappointed he's out. Hoy does have it in him to score or break out of nowhere though, so it'd be a huge bonus if he's out.

Not looked forward to a game so much since our opener against Leeds. 

Can't wait for this, love the derby games with Cas. Although not so much recently.


Close to a full house under the lights, should make for a great atmosphere 

Singleton also struggling with a foot injury for Cas, which kept him out on Saturday, but I don't know if I'd rather have him playing as he is always good for a few knock-ons and penalties ?? 

Lawler has got 3 penalty points but no ban, so will be eligible for Thursday 

I don’t think it matters too much. I’m expecting our pack to be strong and really come out with some aggression vs Cas. I can’t imagine they will be happy with that first half vs saints and will want to put it right in the 1st half vs Cas. 

I can’t imagine any of our players will want this home run of defeats to continue either so there should be no shortage of motivation for this one.
