Literally can’t believe the tumbleweeds from some on here when we do well and RS does a good job with a massively patched up side… if we’d got badly beat again there would be pages.

They did well tonight and young Sinfield in particular. Team played with good spirit but Cas made non-stop errors.

I think most are glad season is done.

I think you may have said this last week, but Fusitua (when he's on the pitch) is probably the best player we have. Boy does he run that ball in hard.

I loved the mentality of him there. Also put another shot on their centre (couldn’t quite see) like he did against Hull, he has some whack too.

I do thing Cas gave up after 20 mins and a few calls went against them. Losing Holroyd and Smith thought we had no right to win like that.

Gannon was good again too.

Final thought from me, think we were maybe better with the ball without Cameron Smith hogging it.

Tom Nicholson-Watton sounds like he should be the Tory MP for Henley-On - Thames rather than a young prop with a worse mullet than Cameron Smith.

Did ok though

Double-barrelled names meant you were posh when I were a lad. Nowadays they just mean you're a bit of a b*stard!

I think hes almost been trying too hard to compensate for our terrible halves. Frawley might be a better signing than people think.

Whys it taken a 19 year old kid to realise Fusitua is a massive threat under attacking kicks

You can only beat what's in front of you as they say, but it was good to see Sinfield playing as a proper halfback. He really does have a good temperament and that sense that he knows what he's trying to do. Also made up for Hooley. He may be leaving but I'm so pleased he's shown that he's a decent player after what was a terrible debut.

Hooley is realistically going to be 3rd choice next year eith Edgell breathing down his neck aswell, a move to somewhere like Cas where he will be 1st second choice will be the best move for him, hes a decent player and has s good eye for the try line

How did the debutants go? Is there any chance Nicholson-Watton can save us needing to recruit another prop. (I think we still need one front line prop but would be nice if the reserves come from within)

Good way to finish the season, lots of work to do now, but always good to get into the prep for next season on a positive

Was there any news on Newman? He went off feeling his hamstring again. He seemed to be struggling with it for a while before he was replaced. Also Fusitua went off, not sure what the problem was with him.
