Do we think there is much in the Rohan Smith comments about Nene’s return in the post match presser? Seemed very akin to the Blake Austin ‘I am waiting for more information’ when asked if he was going to return. If the head coach doesn’t have information on when one of his key players will return, who does?

Perhaps Nene hasn't yet confirmed to anyone at the club why, perhaps RS knows exactly why but doesn't want to make it public. I guess we'll find out.

Sending Cas down on the last game of the season would bring a little bit of cheer to finish the year.

It would appear at the moment that their win against Wakey will be enough to see them survive.

Not over until the fat lady flushes but it seems to be heading that way

I wonder if we're going to sign Lino if Wakey go down, that's why we've not signed anyone yet

There's been some fairly crass comments surrounding Nene when no one knows the reasons for going awal sometimes family is all that matters.

I don't get why Leeds fans would want to see the end of our biggest local derby.

People have their different reasons for one outcome over another aside from Austin getting relegated with them. Leeds v Cas doesn't really 'rev me up' either, its hardly Leeds v bulls in its prime.

For me Cas get a pass on so many levels because of a couple of competitive years under Powell.

They’ve continually promised ground improvements, and not delivered. Their track record for bringing through local players, for such a RL hotbed isn’t good. I think Wakefield deliver more on both those fronts, and are perhaps a little more active in their communities. Don’t get me wrong, there’s not much in it, but Wakey are better for the game right now imo.
