To see how the fringe players are and how they will handle a competitive match,don't forget nearly all of the 1st team squad played all but 1 match last season and what would the point in slinging them in.It always happens on here during friendlies...people moaning

I'm not moaning I'm asking the question what's the point in playing a young side against a full strength team and get hammered what does that do for us or our mental toughness and confidence why don't the coaches come to an agreement about the standard of side they are putting out because what do Cas take from this themselves, and I am now waiting for a cas fan to come on and say they where at half strength themselves lol

You are moaning. It was men v boys until the last 15 minutes or so. It was to see if any of the youngsters/fringe players are capable of making the step up. Some people need a dose of realism. Griffin and Michaels gave a good account of themselves as expected but I was impressed with young Wray.

I'll have a moan. Don't get friendlies on boxing day. It's nostalgic tripe in my opinion. A nod to the past. It's a long way to seasons start and hell of a lot of pre season work to be done yet. It could have had slight use with a competitive team out. Kids v cas at cas never stacks up to a useful run out imo.Seeing kids is great but they really need working in along side 1st teamers. Not on mass v a top end team. Wasted time and effort for players fans and given score probably coaches
