Correct, maybe not that easy but it wouldnt be close. our 2007-2009 team would do the same in a big game.
The Leeds, Bradford, Wigan, Saints, and possibly Hull sides of 2004 would beat this year's Cas side, despite them being easily the best team in the league this year.

And the 2004 season was only 28 games compared to 30.

All the 2004 teams would get beaten relatively easily by Cas this year in my opinion.
Leeds were fantastic to watch and relative to the time I'd say they were better than Cas are now, but you can't ignore how the game has progressed since then. It's significantly more intense now and the 2004 teams would get hammered by both the control of the play the ball and the amount and consistency of good decisions needed in defence to stop the modern attacking plays.

The 2004 sides would win without breaking a sweat.

B#llocks. There's no player in that Cas side close to Farrell, Newton, Sculthorpe,Cunningham, Long, Lauititi, Senior, Sinfield, McGuire (2004), Harris, Vainakolo, Hape, Fielden and a load more.
Fact of the matter is that if they'd have been coming up a decade later with the real-terms cut salary cap and the improvement of competitor competitions 90% of them would have gone to the NRL or started off in Union without even touching League.
