Ha ha mystic vasty proves his rugby knowledge yet again! Stick to thinking about temporary stands and leave what happens on the pitch to your fellow wake fans

McShane is a plodder imo.

Just remember mistic vasty also predicted a top six for Wakefield.

It may shock you to know that bigging up Cas at the start of the season isn't my top priority. I admit that for an inbred Cas fan that's hard to accept but my world doesn't start and finish at Airedale.

I've no wish to massage your egoes you lot and your fifth columnist Belly do that well enough yourselves in your echo chamber nutjob forum. So why not go back there and slap each other's backs with your big fat hairy six fingered hands - good lad.

If you're gonna express an opinion & put yourself up there then expect to be shot at later mate. For what it's worth, I think it's good that people do, if everyone played it safe & sat on the fence then forums would be a pretty boring place (fair play to you on the opinion front, you have one on just about everything as far as I can tell)! Unfortunately the stereotypical inbred overreaction comment is what makes you look daft, not the fact you rated some wakey players better than Cas ones.

"McShane is a plodder imo."
Just shows how little you actually know about the game.
For what it's worth I'm really glad wakey are having a good year as I enjoy the rivalry as much as you do.unlike you tho I can give credit to a player who is having a great season regardless of the shirt they wear.
Maybe when I'm old and bitter like you vasty I will just concentrate on telling the rest of the world they are wrong

I don't particularly like Cas to be honest, I'd much rather they were in the Middle 8 or at least below us. I like to think I can at least give a somewhat objective opinion on them though. I expected them to finish 4th at the start of the season, as did quite a lot of people as far as I can remember as it was pretty obvious they were set for a good season after how they performed in the top 8 last year once they weren't playing a prop at half back.

For some reason though you have an absolutely huge chip on your shoulder about everything to do with them. If someone even slightly praises them then they clearly must be a closet Cas fan because we can't be going around praising all those horrible inbreds from Airedale. You're continuously absolutely miles off with pretty much anything you ever say about them.

When we beat them in the first game of the season in 2015 you were proclaiming how their bubble had burst after Wembley and that they weren't even that much better than us. They went on to finish 5th and we only won two more games all season in SL.

Then the hilarious predictions at the beginning of this thread. "McShane is a plodder". Proceeds to have a fantastic season. "Average pack". Yep, Millington, Moors, Sene-Lefao, McMeeken etc. are all rubbish. "Will miss Dorn hugely." Hardaker has probably been even better than Dorn was. "Top 8, top 6 at a push". Pretty much wrapped up the LLS before the Super 8 has even started. You've even said that you don't think Luke Gale is much better than Liam Finn, which is just completely absurd.

Then we had your hilarious claim just before the Good Friday game that no Cas players would get in the Wakefield team. Daryl Powell must be practicing some kind of witchcraft then to be that far clear at the top with a team of players that wouldn't even get in the side who are 5th.

The funny thing is that as soon as Wakefield win a few games you're all over the VT lauding it over everyone who predicted us to finish last asking them if they'll be changing their opinions now they've been made to look silly. But when the shoe is on the other foot you either try and deflect or just double down on all the nonsense.

Did a lass from Airedale break your heart back in the day? That's about the only thing I can think of that would explain how bitter you are about anything to do with Castleford.

Re: Interesting SL 2017 signings : Mon Jul 24, 2017 9:22 pm  

I'm sure Vastmans opinion on McShane was was based on his performances for Wakefield. He clearly isn't the type of player you want in a struggling side like we were at that time. My main memory of him was the regular forward passes from acting half and dumb last play kicks. I don't think he was that hot at the start of his Cas career either. As bad as Scott Moore turned out, he gave more value to the team at the end of that disastrous season than McShane ever would have.
He's now being carried along on the coat tales of some pretty good players. Fair enough.

Seriously. Why is it so hard to discuss rugby without personal digs and insults.
I'll always take the Wakefield side against trolls but this isn't that.
The response was uncalled for.
