Just wondered if anyone fancied singing their praises over the weekends performance. Personally I thought both of them were excellant. Especially Shifty who was superb at scrum half for the full 80 minutes.

Seems there are a lot of fans who are quick to crtitcise and not quite so quick to praise when its deserved.

Well done lads, you were brilliant at the weekend, lets have more of the same against Quins, 3 on the bounce!

Always been a fan of Goldy. He's been moved about that much his head must be spinning. And this year at fullback he's not dropped too many high balls.

Sherwin is fustrating to watch. I want an experience scrum half to take over and marshall his troops. But he doesn't seem to talk very much at all on the field. Chase is generally left running the show.

Hmm Dont think one game justifies Sherwins wages, He constantly frustrates as we no he can do it just rarely does, Goldie has had a hard time of it prob trying too hard

I thought they both played really well hopefully they can get some confidence for the games to come, when sherwin, chase and mcgoldrick are on form we can beat anyone.

The (perhaps unfortunate) fact remains that when Goldy plays well and/or Shifty plays at all we stand a far better chance of winning.

Here we go again - another fan who apparently works in the wages department at Cas RLFC. Cas wages department must employ more people than Burberrys and Nestle put together.

Goldy was and is class, Shifty was OK for me. Half decent kicking game for once, but Rangi was a threat every time he touched the ball, and a decent kicking game too. Rangi and Goldy for me were the stars. Not Sherwin.

it Does employ more

You know what, I was thinking about this too - I find it hard to get too giddy about 1 good and 1 quality performance - but Shifty himself must be looking at the back and of this season and thinking how he wants to sign off from the game..... Doggies fans would be shocked to see how he was almost shuffling away un-noticed.

I think something inside him has changed he looked different - he won't want to bitch out at the end of a highly successful career - I think and I hope there is more to the man than that - watch this space I hope for the remainder of this term.

He's amazing that chase if he was more of a threat than a bloke who scored two tries



Seriously though i dont think your giving sherwin enough credit, he was involved in most of the good stuff we did and scored two tries, the kick to dixon and the resulting try was probably my favourite moment of the match.

Credit where it's due, I though they both made a massive contribution to the win on Sunday; however to silence many of the doubters they'll need to find some consistent form as I think it became apparent that their performance can affect that of the rest of the team.

Was saying something along similar lines to me mate. Hope we are both right.

Another play who deserves some credit is snowie, i know he mucked up that kick but it was a bad bounce and he was under alot of pressure. He saved a try, scored a try and ran as hard as any prop on the field up the middle.

Yep, Catalan chaos every time Rangi touched the ball !!

Dixon, a 6 foot 4 winger deserved far more credit than the scrum half for that try, not exactly what he's there to do but he put a marvellous kick over for Sherwin didn't he!!

Sherwin did what he's paid to do, and no more in my book

Just been reading casforum, and someone on there put 'I also think that some people will refuse to ever acknowledge a decent performance from Sherwin.'

Chase is a more threatening individual player but when shifty is on form he is far better at organising our team, which is less noticable than chases individual plays.

And yes dixon did put a good kick in, after recieving an even better kick from sherwin, which allowed to sherwin to take the ball in the air and score a good try.

His performance was OK, call that decent if you want.

You are missing my point though, both great kicks, but one from a scrum half who should be doing things like that, the other from a winger who won't put another kick in all season!!

Did i state how much he earns NO do we pay him Yes 1 good game for 2 years wages not good enough Run along

And if your the purist analyst you think you are who was responsible for 2 of there tries for a poor atamped takle and being out of posision for the other!!!!!

You think thats the only good game he's had in two years? must be watching a differant team to me then, case in point wigan away last year set up every one of our tries.

Thats the differance though a scrum half has to kick over and over again through a match, and if he does a bad one it gets remembered more than 5 good kicks, other players might put in a good kick in occasionaly but know one blames them or remembers when they put a bad one in, only the good ones.

When Tampax is fit and playing, he is very good,

Maybe yes i am not being kind he has been ok in patches But if he earned more than 20 grand a season not worth it Than was my point and only my opinion. I am entitled to My opinion and you yours but i dont try to belittle you because i dont agree with yours !!

They both played very well.

I wasnt trying to belittle you, i apologise if it seemed that way, just annoys me when i hear comments like he has had one good game in two seasons when it clearly isnt the case.

Nps pyeman i wasnt really pointing my rant back at you more at westyorkylad
i have had my chill pill and can comunicate normally again (well ish)
