I hope Applegarth treated last night's game as day dot and Cas merely have a head start from what was the remaining half dozen games. I know we've been garbage for the majority of the season but I can see at least three (usually) winnable games.

Salford A - Winnable. Beaten once and came very close to beating twice, only losing in golden point.

Saints H - Winnable. Always seem to do well at home against Saints and have had some good recent results.

Catalans H - Can't see anything coming from this game other than a major suffering of our points difference.


Leigh A - No chance.

Hull KR H - Winnable. I think Hull KR's season might now slowly fizzle out after the cup defeat.

Really? In the last 10 years you've recorded just one home win against Saints with 8 defeats in that time.

He was rescued by Ford leaving and Gale coming in, because then there was an upturn that coincided with Cas's downturn.

I'm not sure I'd get rid now. Just let Long take some of the pressure off. I can imagine Long will be fun to play under, and sometimes players just need to rediscover their zip.

One Aussie assistant who seems to be doing well is Lee Briers. I'm surprised Warrington didn't go in for him. He's the Brisbane attack coach, and they have the best and most exciting attack in the NRL (helped by having an experienced half-back surrounded by a young squad).

Dare I say that Richard Agar seems to be doing well at New Zealand Warriors, who are the surprise package this year, but I reckon he prefers being an assistant to being a head coach. Looking back now, the days of Richard Agar are halcyon days.

Sadly. My personal choice to replace him would have been Ward.
Come on JM/MC do the right thing relieve MA of his duties and hopefully a new coach bounce might work in our favour for rest of the campaign…

My choice would have been Ward at beginning of season .Wards team have always played Good rugby
