Cooke for me was man of the match as he took control and the team did better for it. JD looks out of sorts but the man has put his heart and soul into the club and has never took a backward step. I dont think its fair to criticise a player who has done so much for the club. Im the same age as JD and I struggle to stand on the side and watch. I love the game but would I swop him? Not in a million years. Its a tough old game and I respect all the players do for our entertainment.
He seemed frustrated last night when he dropped the ball trying to offload. Which to me shows that he still cares and still has desire. He will come good this season just when we need it
Wigan will be a tough game which I hope we win but dont expect it. The crusaders follow which I would expect to win. So by round 11 we could well be on 14 points. Cant really ask for more.
Wakefield till I Die!!!

I agree over Cooke, he made the difference in the second half in what was a drab game that could've easily turned the other way if one or two Cas players had decided at half time to turn on a performance.
Regarding JD, it's a tough one, but I think people should be able to be critical of his perfomances this year. Great servant, great bloke, etc, but that shouldn't really figure heavy in the equation when deciding what is best for picking a team to win. Perhaps a more selective use of him from the bench may be in order.
