| That's fascinating............no it really is.
That you're prepared to tackle the burning topic with such gusto is all credit to you.
Well played sir!

| I don't think Cas's form is really a surprise at all. They are top on merit and putting many teams to the sword to boot.
On pre season thoughts though, to put things into context most people's top two would have been Wigan and Warrington. Well, nobody could have foreseen the fall of the Wire and Wigan have had to dig deep with injuries to key players so have slipped a bit. Cas have taken advantage of this, credit to them.
Despite all this, i wouldn't be running to the bookies to put all my wages on Cas winning the GF just yet.

| Cas will never win the GF.
I've got them down to win at Wembley, finish 3rd after 23 rounds but then drop out of the top 4 before the play offs.

You may be correct but they did say that about Leeds until 2004.
Regardless of whether they win it or not their style of play and attacking attitude is a breath of fresh air to SL which I actually think is level above 2016

| Quote Juan Cornetto="Juan Cornetto"We are all entitled to an opinion and mine is based on rugby knowledge gained from 50 years of actively supporting Leeds and another 10 years from mainly watching on TV as I now live too far away to attend regular matches live. In addition I coached for almost 10 years I have had senior team management experience so I do have some qualifications to back up my rugby opinions.
Attending matches live does not make your opinion any better than those that watched the same game on TV as some things are missed on TV and some things are better seen on TV while interpreting the trends from stats can be done from anywhere. I did not give an opinion in this case on anything that could have been seen better live so once again your comment is invalid.
However you sound off on almost every thread, sometimes with valid comments in fairness, but more often with extreme and negative stuff including insults which does not make for a good debate. So I suggest you try to argue your case on a rugby basis rather than on a personal level and stop questioning the right to an opinion of those that have to watch on TV'"
I think you have got a bit precious there, and have completely misunderstood the point. You were the one who talked about sitting next to you in the stand, I mearly pointed out the obvious, which of course you have validated above. At no time have I suggested you can not put your opinion, and very often I have agreed with it. That said however, I refuse to accept that reading stats instead of seeing the match (and please don't tell me you get them all on TV) makes your opinion better or even equal to being there, which you suggest it does.
Let's not forget here it is you who has had a go at my opinion, apparently as negative, rather than the other way round.

It's beneficial for some things but not for others.

Who's they? I certainly didn't. Leeds were a sleeping giant pre-2004. Cas have always been a small time, small town club.
Can see them winning at Wembley if they meet the right team in the final, but a GF win isn't going to happen any time soon.

Does Southstanders village idiot have to get involved in everything with other people. Quote the full post if you want to be involved, there is context.

Coming from someone who can barely string 3 words together without making spelling or grammatical errors...
Anyway, I quoted the full sentence. You implied that he wasn't allowed to comment because he didn't go to the game. Something you've been saying on here for years, it's really quite pathetic.

Three weeks is all it took for this poster to change his mind. Give him another three weeks and Cas will be winning the GF.
Quote loiner81="loiner81"Never going to happen. They had their chance in 2014 but were so happy to just be in a final that most of their squad forgot to turn up on the day, especially Luke Dorn.
That small town, small time club mentality is why they'll never win anything and is why beating a club like Leeds in the league is the pinnacle of their season.'"
