Same with dixons kicking in our two loses. But at the ned of the day they failed to kick them.

As I said to someoone else on this forum, he didn't though did he? So we beat you didn't we? If they had given the kick the week that went over the week before, we would have drawn with Hudds, if Ferres had put the ball down with two hands we would have won. If we hadn't given the ball to Dorn in the first match we might of won it. Its all ifs and buts. Look at the facts you scored 18 points, we scored 19 points. Therefore we won! Simple as that.

ATEOTD it was Terry Matterson who first said we could be 6 from 6 and as our coach I'd expect him to say it. He should be bigging up the club in public while behind the scenes making the team aware of the little mistakes and the chances they've blown. That's part of his job, isn't it?

FWIW I think the Giants deserved their game with that terrific defence, while Quins were pretty lucky to have Sarge pass the ball to Dorn for a sitter, have Dicko miss the two conversions, and to have played Cas without Brent Sherwin. So maybe we 'should' be 5 from 6? Either way, it's all just chip wrapping now. I'm happy enough with four.

Think you've missed his point somewhat.

5 from 6 maybe, against Quins Cas were rudderless. Sherwin has made all the difference.
(and yes...I was there)

So back to the question can Cas make top 4?
If we keep a injury list to a min, esp Sherwin, we have just as good chance as any other teams. But saying that I don't think we will make top 4.
A lot of teams and other fans are still disrespecting Cas in 2009. This is not the Cas team of 2008. We have made a number of changes and kept a good spine of the "capable" players of 2008.
Ryan McGoldrick Playing his Best. Exellent at joining attacking line from FB
Richard Owen Promising youngster, good finisher. Eng international?
Micheal Shenton Probably the best centre in SL. Me been Biased?
Kirk Dixon Dont know what to think about kirk.
Brent Sherwin Playing out of his skin. Cas different team without him.
Mitchell Sargent Absalute workhorse.
Craig Huby Another home grown. Startng to mature into a SL Player.
Liam Higgins As above.
Ryan Boyle As above.
Joe Westerman Rated 2nd best youngerster worldwide in 2008
The only player we should have kept who left was Luke Dorn (could have cover sherwin if injured).

Signings
James Evans Good defenisve player. Also shown he can finish
Rangi Chase Starting to come into his own, good partner for Sherwin
Ryan Hudson Controls the ruck well.. Welcome back Ryan
Kirk Netherton Good player to rotate with Hudson from bench
Brett Ferres Good all rounder
Stuart Jones Goes unnoticed...another workhorse
Sione Faumuina Capble to be a genius also capable of a libilty
Chris Feather Big strong runner

With a mixture of Youth and experiance in 2009 squad, Cas Tigers a a dark horse this year. I think we will finish 5/6th this year.

Leeds
St Helens
Hull FC
Wakefield
Cas
Huddersfield
Wigan
Quinns

Dam thats really hard to say this year, whos coming where.
Leeds, St's top. Celtic, Salford Bottom. Fight belween the rest.
Going to be closest SL season to date.

GL to all teams even more to the Tigers

Just feel obliged to point out that FC were poor on Friday, Cas were not good.

Not good but still got the 2 points from a team previously unbeaten in 5, at home ?

Do you not think we made you look crap ?

Anyway it doesn't matter 2 points from one Hull trip will do for me

We made ourselves look poor I am afraid, we just "wern't at the races" to coin a Kearism.

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

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?
