Cas are playing rugby the right way, and it's been a while since teams have faced a team who play such a structured, well drilled attack, and we'll need a performance better than anything we've seen from Leeds in the last 18 months.
Whilst he got their first try, Ryan Morgan looks like one of the poorest NRL recruits to SL in a long time.
Will be interesting next week. Awesome at home but Cas have lost 3 of their last 5 away games (including this same Saints side a few weeks back) so are beatable away from the Jungle.

I hope we really get fired up for this one. Cas will be that's for sure, they always are but what they did to us a few months back should be driving our players on for a big game in Newcastle. You can't just sit back and watch against this Cas team, we know what will happen if we do so the intensity has to be there from minute one.
First and foremost i want to see a good, competitive 80 minute performance from us.... The result would be nice but too of course

The test for Cas will be if a team shows defensive grit and manages to get ahead of them early. In fact they absolutely need a few games like that to get the experience of toughing out wins.
This will be a big test to see how good Leeds actually are. We should be close to full strength and after the embarrassment at Cas really have no excuses for lack of motivation.

A masterclass performance is coming from Leeds this weekend.
Leeds to win by 16-20.

I think this is possible it will be either a tight Leeds win or a Cas walk over. I am with you I think Leeds will win.
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.
