Our defence and concentration needs to go up a notch though or Cas could well do a number on us.
though the 'Brasil' soccer philosophy of just outscoring the opposition works in terms of winning it is bloody nerve-wracking
Conceding 10 points in France is hardly concerning and didn't we nil them for the last hour so concentration not an issue either although the last 20 against Salford for whatever reason was not great but apart from that more of the same for me.

Of course but when you score then opposition score, you score again then they again and so on whilst entertaining it's also nail biting. I can envisage the Cas game going that way with a score or two in it with very high scoring from both sudes as Cas look on the money attack wise hence why I think we need to up our councentration a notch. I never said it was poor but the next step up against better opposition will enable us to maintain the 100% win record plus the momentum and positivity that's being generated right now.

Hate Thurs matches as I can't make them due to work commitments...as for the match,if we play like we have then we should have no worrys,for me cas are a workman like team,play for each other but have no outstanding players.

This is a game we should win, but we will need to treat them with respect. My main concern is that we start believing our hype and let our intensity drop, but I'd like to think we have too much experience in the team to let that happen.
Our defence hasn't been fantastic, but if we include the derby, we are shipping 16ish points per game. You shouldn't lose too often if you concede 16 every game. Its also worth noting half of those points came at the end of games that were already long dead, which points to us switching off a touch rather than proper defensive frailties.
I believe that 6 of the 10 tries we have let in have been scored by the left winger. Its not a terrible stat, in fact you could put a positive spin on it and talk about how strong our middle is. But if there is a weakness its got to be that right edge, and I hope we are working on tightening it up. Solomona won't need a second invitation.

Its the long cut out pass thats doing the damage to our right edge.It also doesnt help with Pryce usually defending next to Logan as they are both guilty of jumping the line

On the game it has the potential to be a belter and the winning team will be sending a definite message out to the rest of SL. Can't wait!
Inflammatory posts are also against the AUP which you utterly ignored. Wizeb making comments deliberately to do exactly that which were also unrelated to the thread are all okay in your eyes though...
