Unfortunately I'll have to watch this one through an ouzo induced haze, but expect a good game!

Cas squad just been announced.... Almost full strength, without moors cook and Holmes.... A little frustrating they all play the same position, but I think the packs look fairly evenly matched.

That team is capable of winning but we'll have to be at our very best.
No need to play injured players. The squad is capable of handling it within reason.

Hope it's close and entertaining.

I remember saying to my Cas mate when we played million pound game and the seasons when we were pushing for the 8 how good it would be to have the Derby deciding top 8 positions or bigger.
Never thought we'd be battling to keep LLS and top 4 respectively.
Happy days for both clubs. Let's showcase it so Sky can only say good things.

Kendall is the ref so that spoils the game straight away. I think he is by far the worst ref in super league

How many more times,better get him a season ticket.

If it wasn't for the fact it's a local derby you could make a case for both teams resting a couple of players with knocks for the bigger battles ahead.the fact is tho it is a local derby and I expect both teams to go for it as usual.only silver lining for whoever loses is it won't be season destroying.

If think our injury concerns are of a standard nature this year rather than at the crisis point we were at for the semi final last year where Dave couldn't lift his legs up and was a shadow of himself on the field. absolutely no question he was playing if not fit.

I had this game as a marker point in my mind as to how we'd progressed this year, my hope is we give them a game. This may depend on the outcome of the disciplinary panel tonight. Don't think we can afford to lose Hirst from the pack for this one. Lyne's pace would also be a loss.

Somebody on here said that Hirst has an EGP available, so should be okay to play ??

Hirst has got a £300 fine,that's all.

Hirst didn't get a fine he got NFA (no further action)

How long can we keep leaving Jowitt out before he starts to get itchy feet? Would love to see his name back in the squad.
