Pretty impressive performance that, given ourselves a chance. Now we need to raise the bar again at Wigan. Hats off to Trueman, he was outstanding. Good to see McShane look something like again as well.

Awesome today, best I’ve seen cas play all season looked threatening from the off, take this into Wigan next week and hopefully into the play offs where I think we will play our best rugby of the season.

Cheyse Blair looks like he’s finally settled and getting into some form. :-"

I believe the great performance at Saints last week contributed in a very positive way towards the performance and subsequent result tonite. Well done lads, keep it up. The Guinness will go down well this weekend.

Just to add. Tonight summed up everything I love about being a Cas fan. We travelled a long way (as usual) with optimism ( which is regularly rubbished on here as ‘rose/amber tinted) to support our fantastic team which, with all its flaws, frustrations and idiosyncrasies makes at least most of us proud to be from Cas.
Yes, we don’t always get it right, yes, we may think the club is run by muppets, but when a team representing our small town in Wakefield completely destroys a city team full of alleged talent without our star player it not only gets me through the week, it will help to get me through the winter.
I have no illusions that being a Cas fan is anything other than a roller coaster ride, but in my view the highs make it worth the trip and actually, the lows make the highs so much better. Who would have thought 12+years ago we would over a number of seasons have been right up at the top of Super League rather than topping up the budgets of Doncaster, Rochdale and Batley with our away support?
Nights like tonight are what it’s all about.
Thank you Mr Powell. Thank you Cas Tigers. See you at Wigan!

Definitely the best that Cas have played all season. Some of the play reminiscent of the 2017 season. Hull looked shot, can’t see them beating Saints even if Saints rest some players, whilst on last night’s form Cas should beat Wigan anyway. Remember we only lost 4-6 earlier in the season who didn’t play all that well at Wakefield last week either.

what a game our forwards stood up to their big pack even without Millington who went down after only minutes, Blair broke his duck to the delight of a young fan stood next to me who had taken 14 to 1 for him to do so Trueman looked world class in attack and defence, on the down side a poor turn out from fans only maybe 300 from hull only three buses on Weldon road a large number of our fans are choosing to watch the match on TV i dont think SKY as done us any favours have us on TV week in and week out some people have taken the easy option and either watched the match at home or in the pub and have got out of the habit of watching the game live, hence the tumbling of crowd numbers

Was a good performance no body menshioned how better Ellis played this week and dont think missed a kick to keep score board ticking over. Yon can only play what's in front off you but wow Hull have major problems a poor Huddersfield did same to them last week. Think few people on here getting a bit over excited wih the performance.. We probably being like Hull are selfs this year are top players not always performing as they should.

Connor started his usual niggles but picked on the wrong un last night, big rap for JSL for neutralising Connor. I wonder if it was part of the game plan to upset the cry baby
