Many making the short trip over?

Fancy our chances?

Personally i think it will be a tight one.. however i think we will sneak it!

I'll be heading over with a bus of about 16 or 17 others...

Think it'll be a Tigers win...Don't think it will be particularly close but in the same sense I don't think it will be a routing. (nothing like sitting on the fence)

You're consistent, we're not, if we decide to turn up this week, it should be a great game.

I'm going over with a coach full.
I said after last year and the Hull chavs i would not go again,but hey,i just cant keep away


This is going to be a tight nervy game,not a classic and hope we can scrape a win.

Can't wait. Haven't been KC for 2 years so really looking forward to it but I'm not confident about this one.

The nagging doubt about this one is in that we've only played one away game this season and lost it - we weren't beaten, we lost it through our own lack of composure and inability to stick to a game plan.

One rather refreshing thing about the team this season is an ability to look at what's going wrong and correct it - look at the second half performances; the way we bounced back on Sunday after our first defeat; the way we got it back together late on after falling apart for fifteen minutes when Orr went off on Sunday; the discovery of a killer instinct. These are all encouraging signs of improvement and an indication that the coach and senior players are able to address (quickly) the things that are going wrong.

Even if Hull turn up, I think we can beat them because we're defending well and playing with confidence. If they don't turn up, it plays right into our hands. We simply need to pick up where we left off on Sunday, turn the screw, get on top of the game and play for 80 minutes. I don't see why that shouldn't be the case, nor am I reading anything into the pre-season game at our place. In summary I'm confident of a win, but not expecting an easy ride.

24 points for your boys in the last 15 minutes is some going.

For me, they will try and turn it into a forward battle. Hope we deal with it better than we did agaisnt Bradford.

Im pretty optimistic about it and think we will get the win.

Anyone think there will be any changes?

Raz or/and Snitch to come back in?

No room for Hudson. Clark & Milner are far superior. I woudn't say no to Snitch coming in for Aspinwall. But thats it. Same as otherwise.

Snitch must be hungry. It's been ages since he played. Although Fozzy was possibly our best forward against Cru hea was wearing so much tape he looked like a walking smith & nephew advert. Does he need to be rested or does he just wear all that tape for the hell of it?

I know we have to take one game at a time and all that but looking to the easter games we need to have essentially 2 sets of props because playing friday, monday, friday is impossible without rotating the forwards.

If anyone is carrying a knock, they need to be rested to make sure we are ready for easter. Hopefully Walker should be back by then too.

Against Hull, it depends if O'Meley is playing. He was the best player for Hull by miles at MM. He made some good yards. If he isn't then we can match them up the middle. If he is then we might want to think about playing someone like Snitch in case we need an extra prop.

Thankfully the club have made the east stand reserved so Chav corner has now just about gone. Hope you don't get any aggro from the mindless few.

It's obvious now that teams are going to try and pinpoint Chase and Orr, understandably. As long as they get free rein I think we'll come away with a win, but it's going to be tough with every man and his dog trying to take them out.

Nevermind Chase and Orr its their minders in the pack they should worry about first....

As a previous poster said the club has dispersed the majority of the chavs from the east stand so you shouldnt have any problems. The Castleford Club, team and supporters are held in high regard by a lot of Hull fans who enjoy your style of play and seeing you win but i hope we sneak it this week.Have a safe journey.

Been and got my ticket this morning and i'll be bringing a coach....i mean car full.

Does anyone if they have opened a second bus yet from the cas ground? Went in the other day and they said they have filled the first bus, and waiting to see if there was enough interest to take a second one.

Really looking forward to this one. Always love the Hull Vs Cas Games. If we play like we did against Wigan and Crusaders oh and the last 15mins of the Quins game then it will be a tight game.

Really looking forward to this match, most all season (bar Rovers at MM).

Your lot are going really well, combined talent of young and old. Been really impressed with your backs this season, all seeing the try line fairly regular, as well as your young lads in Clark and Arundel.

It all depends if we're there to play. If we are, it will be a great contest, and I hope we can push on from our great come back at The Stoop to achieve our first back to back wins this season. Yeamo and Briscoe going really well on our left, Horney in some form, Obst causing all sorts of trouble and Fitz is the usual machine.

Bring on Friday!

Always has done....well for us anyway.

Proving to be a real good buy for us, shining at hooker and in the halves.

Friday should be:

6. Horne
7. Long
9. Houghton
14. Obst.

However, our turn at the weekend around came about when Obst was at hooker, and Houghton as always shown to be a good hooker to come off the bench when Berro was here.

Castleford Tigers head coach Terry Matterson has named an unchanged 19-man squad for Friday's away clash with Hull FC at the KC Stadium.
Richard Owen and Ryan Hudson are the two members of the ‘19' that sat out Sunday's emphatic 56-16 home win over Crusaders that lifted the Tigers to second in the Engage Super League table.

Tigers squad:
1 - Richard Mathers,
2 - Kirk Dixon,
3 - Nick Youngquest,
4 - Joe Arundel,
5 - Richard Owen,
6 - Rangi Chase,
7 - Danny Orr,
8 - Paul Jackson,
9 - Ryan Hudson
10 - Craig Huby,
11 - Jacob Emmitt,
13 - Brett Ferres,
14 - Stuart Jones,
16 - Adam Milner,
17 - Willie Isa,
19 - Nick Fozzard,
20 - Martin Aspinwall,
25 - Dean Widders,
27 - Daryl Clark.

I expect it will be the same 17 but reshuffled to bring Jackson & Emmitt back in for Fozzard & Aspinwall.

Great!!....we could do with one.

Should i take Milner out of my fantasy team or will he still play despite Hudsons return?
