exactly, you will have the fringe players that have been busting a gut to get into a winning team and will be wanting to stake their claim

yes just danny brough, young sam wood is the other half back, whos not a half back...been playing centre when hes played for us... played half back last week at leeds as we dont have gaskell/brierley/ellis for different reasons! wood played half back as a junior

well the giants are still available at 3/1 for a win with the bookies...cant have been too many putting faith in us producing the right attitude this week!

The same old same old Cas fans come on opposing fans forums before every game playing down our chances, these die hard Cas fans never expect Cas to win ever!

Are those cas fans honest enough to come in here and admit the better team lost?

We were both equally terrible, but we made better choices in the last 20.

Yes, see the VT. If Hudds were playing any other side tonight I would have been screaming for a hudds win. Touching tribute to Jennifer Davy. Heart sunk when the camera zoomed into the Davy family. She was obviously an inspirational lady and will be missed.

You backed up a good performance from last week which speaks volumes. I'm more then happy to acknowledge you guys had Gaskell Ta'ai Lawrence Cudjoe etc missing .

It wasn't the refs fault you lost tonight though, look a little closer to home. Not fully convinced a DG on 55 mins was the right idea too, why not keep us pinned down there? That said, the performance tonight was a world a part from the showing your boys delivered at Cas last month....

It's sport. The best team is the team that scores the most points. As such, the best team won.

If you count the better team as the one's who failed to score in the second half then I guess you could say that

You look a completely different side recently and I hope you go on to secure a top 8 spot and in the last few weeks you look more than capable. However in sport a win is a win, doesn't matter who's the 'better side'. Before you say it I'd say that either way too if the roles were reversed.

So no then...

Not far off

Thoughts to the Davy family also
