They are out injured arent they? So you are putting out your strongest team.

As we pretty much did against the levithons of rl...... kieghly

edit: just checked the teams and with the injuries we have aat the moment looks like we will have put a stronger team out against kieghly!

Cas should win by at least 24-30 Points but IF they take fax lightly then their could be a shock on the cards. Its just an 80 Minute game where anything can happen. Fax have nothing to lose really whilst Cas are expected to steamroll us-I am quite happy with that as we can play our game under little pressure. Plus Cas have a poor kicking game

Not true, had a shocker at edinburgh, but normally sherwin is an excellent kicker, didnt help that on sunday he was under pressure for every kick.

I've had a change of mindset for this and i really think it's going to be a close game (nothing new there with us then!). I could see you lot snatching it with the players we have out injured and the drop in form over the last few weeks. TM cannot afford to take you lot likely else you will shock us. The big thing i think could decide the game is our props though i just think they MIGHT be too big for you but then again who knows ?

Hope for a good game Saturday lads, personally i'm more bothered about Leeds United but there you go !

Joe Westerman is back this weekend, need to get stuck into him as he could well be a bit cautious.

We, the speccies, need to manage our expectation levels. The players will not let us down but I would be very annoyed if fans turned on them because our best wasn't good enough to stop us being well beaten.

Yeah but we're not used to losing so we'll all stay at home and sulk like that Bradford lot

Good luck against Cas. Having watched Cas I think you have a chance of an upset. Maybe Fax by 4
