What a performance! Souter, Scurr, Bayliss and Michael all immense in the forwards. Halfbacks bossed it, particularly when Keyes was on the field. Thought Holmes won it for us with that try saver and the length of the field try. Respect for Taufua at the end consoling Hoy after the missed goalkick.

Meh. It was ok if you like that sort of thing.

Cas look certs for the wooden spoon unless Hull remain as bad as last year.

Liam Moore tried his hardest too bring life back into Cas in the 2nd half late hit on Gilmour everybody was expecting to be called even Cas play on.

Gilmour?

There were two hits on the kickers but I didn't think either were that late (for either side). Game was played in good spirit. If anything I thought Cas seemed to have the poorer discipline in the first half especially.

[quote="Bullseye":3r2leh05]Gilmour?[/quote:3r2leh05]Yeah 2nd half Cas players takes 4 steps after kick and puts him on his back not maliciously but certainly late

[quote="Bullseye":x39m84go]You mean on Lilley/Meadows/Keyes? We don't have a Gilmour?[/quote:x39m84go] It'll be the hit on Lilley midway through the second half. If it were Mikey Lewis or Jonny Lomax it's a sinbin and a penalty.

I heard the crowd but I was watching the ball.

Well what a result and nice to wake up to on a Monday morning. A bit like Leeds in 2019, this was probably our "final", but with a favourable draw, maybe we could have a shot at the 1/4 finals. The cup games always disappoint with the crowd, a real shame just shy of 3k were there to see it, though I get the reasons why.

I noticed a few of the click bait journos such as Bower and Carter couldn’t bring themselves to write too much positive about the game without stirring up some Odsal bashing.

And to think Aaron was one of the founding members of Bull Builder with us...
