For the last two years ive been lucky enough to back the top try scorer (Solomona & Eden) and won enough both times to pay for my annual jaunt to Blackpool (4 nights & en-suite) . This year is a bit tricky i think Cas will really suffer without Hardaker and believe Eden may eventually be put to full back. I think Lo will make an impression but the jump up from the championship will be a big one and at 10-1 prob not good value.
Cant see the favorite Joe Burgess 8-1 getting much service without Gelling as such this year im putting my money on our very own Tom Johnstone 20-1 with Bet Fred . Surely cant be unlucky enough to suffer another injury and with the ever improving Tupou on his inside really do think he will be up there.

If we click and compete for a top four place that looks to be quite good odds.

tom johnstone is a good bet- I just had 10 bucks on it with my bookie here in oz

Edited for accuracy

Does it help that I have no idea where Airedale is ????

how do I prove that I live in Sydney Australia?

You don't.
Leave it alone Vasty. It's getting old now.

Not as old as his trolling, it's only you who can't see it.

Burgess's centre is Gildart, just the same as last year, and look how Marshall went with him.

Not quite, we still use the English pound in Cas. HTH

Thought the official currency of Castelford was the Giro, my mistake.

not bad! don't think 8/1 represents much value, not sure how wigan are going to go this year. TJ @ 20's looks a fair price

It's Castleford pet, that's the second mistake you've made

as your probably aware the giro as you warmly call it is not a currency, just simply a means of payment. HTH.

Will Gildart stay at left centre with Sarginson returning who played LC too when he was there? Which one will be RC? The young lad Davies could get quite a few and the likes of Johnstone and McGillvary should get up to 20+ if injury free and Mamo and Barba could get plenty too from FB but it's hard to look past whoever plays LW for Cas. Looks like they're going with Roberts at FB so barring injury it's tough to see anyone beating Eden who probably will get 30+ which I can't see anyone else reaching.

Chomp

Used the Iast of my giro to have a e/w bet on TJ at 20's and a bigger bet on Jermaine McGillvery who to my shock was 20s as well. No value in any Cas winger. The new lad at hull might be worth a punt too? Backed Roby mos. Kelly at 22s with sky bet looks good value too. Will wait for next week's giro before slapping that on.

Aren't giros issued every 2 weeks anymore?

No idea FT, worked every day of my life since leaving school, no doubt plenty have benefitted from my contributions

For that you should be grateful

Believe it or not it's paid directly into your bank account.

Or at least it would have been in my case were it not for the fact that despite having paid in all my life and only actually being out of work for 8 weeks in total, I was in fact not eligeable.

You see rather than drink, smoke and generally pee my life away I had savings and a house and I was penalised for that. Without wanting to start another political debate we really do reward the lowest common denominators in this country and for christ sake don't get ill if you've done either of the things I've just mentioned!

Let's keep on theme on this one please.

If you want to talk with our Cas friends about finances you can register on their forum.

Early days yet but try getting 20's now!

Skybet have him joint favourite now at 10-1

so happy with the odds I got
