Having said that, you can only play what's in front of you, having a referee in your pocket helped mind.

Suppose you could say that both ways, you were guilty of holding down a lot and didn't get punished for it. You clearly knocked on a few times and he played on.

Anyway enough of that, can't wait to meet you all in Scotland again !

Don't expect 2 points though

Oh yeah, we have all the refs in our pocket, castleford are well known for beeing favoured by the rfl.

Your not great at being dignified in defeat are you?

I can be dignified when beaten by a better team, as we where more often than not last season, what I dont like is a useless referee that can't even count to 6 and a coach that seemed to forget that you take players off when they are clearly knackered.

I wasn't being ingracious, just thought people needed to undetsand that it was 60% FC being completely shoite and 40% Sherwin running the game.

So you dont think the best team on the night won?

Most hull fans dont seem to.

I think the team that performed best did, not necessarily the best team.

A bit like when we beat Wakey in the CC semi, if Brough had been able to kick then we'd have not been at Wemlbey, similar to us and Tickle on friday.

Anyway, crack on with your small club syndrome, the adults are talking.

Small club syndrome? just because i think your a sore loser?

I think cas will struggle later in the season. They have a small squad and are likely to be hit badly when they get a few injuries. Don't think their forwards are good enough to keep it going all season either.

To put things in perspective, Hull were awful on Friday and still would have won if Tickle had kicked any of the 3 conversions he missed, plus they still have Raynor, Tony, King, Washbrook, Luakai and (fingers crossed) Crocker to add to the side from Friday.

cas are this season's wakefield. A few wins early on and they're suddenly grand finalists in waiting. Long season and plenty of water to run under the bridge yet

Sherwin running the game.

Sorry but that is completely laughable,

Chase was one of our best players on the pitch and ripped you to shreads

McGoldrick didn't do too bad again with his runs

Sargent,Feather,Huby,Jones,Ferres and Higgins just battered your props (which is why you were so tired at the end of the game)

Won 5 out of 6 and he's getting slated ?

Ever thought all his players were tired, which is why he brought nobody on

Did you go to the game (probably best to establish that before we go on)

another armchair Cas fan, to be expected.

Not getting slated at all, he should have brought Houghton on for Berrigan in the last 15.

Anyway, it's irrelevant, you've got the two points.

lets get 1 thing straight, both teams did not play their best, both made mistakes. Ref was poor but for BOTH sides.
"cas forwards wont last the season" is laughable
"cas will dirft towards end of season" cas are playing open expanded rugby league, Summer weather and hard grounds will only favour our game.
If sherwin gets injured we could be in trouble, yes.
Im not saying cas r a top 4 team, but just as good chance as any other team barring BIG 2.
I like Hull FC but looking forward to doing a treble over ya's
