Good news there’s going to be investment in the media side. Although it has improved over last season it’s still not as good as some SL clubs. This will hopefully go some ways into bridging that gap and also boosting subscriptions and interactions on the clubs various platforms.

Just a note, the visual content has really improved. Great stuff so far

Are they at full strength, as I’m not sure what their best 17 is.

Pretty much their whole squad with Milnes missing at halfback

Looking forward to Friday, dont normally do friendlies but being a Friday thought why not, especially as booth teams are going full strength. Should be a good hit out

Be interesting to see where we are at, few good jigsaw pieces missing in terms of Johnstone and Atoni etc, but I think this will give us a good idea on where we are at for the first 40 at least. Two things I am most interested to see is definitely the physicality of the forwards and what kind of rugby we play with Russell / Trueman / Lino.

I must admit, I haven`t thought much of Cas`s playing squad up to now, but seeing it on paper, they have got some decent players in there, I think a lot hangs on DM and Delaney to get them firing.

Weather doesn`t look as bad as initially predicted either, winds seem to die down into the evening.

It has improved but imo it’s not frequent enough yet. The content is somewhat lacking too.

They are averaging between 4 and 5 posts a day on FB.
I'd say that's pretty good. I picked Wigan as an example and they are pretty much the same apart from game day for their friendly.

Yes but the posts are pretty basic and repetitive imo just posting the ST poster image etc.

There should be much more content if interest imho.

Pre season is a great opportunity to do a feature on every first team player, basic stats with action photo gallery and a couple of personalised comments. Basic but more interactive and effective.

Perhaps a weekly competition to generate responses. Free wall paper photos, screen saver photo roll outs.

Feature on the new disciplinary rules that have a summary or run down.
There’s a lot that can be achieved.

It’s better than years gone but it can be much more.
