Millington one of our best forwards on his day ought to be used sparingly i can see no reason for him to play today , last season he looked like he was slowing down a bit

4-4 half time
Great to be back but not too much to report
Jessie’s playing as though it’s the Grand Final

Oh my, if you think a player looking “ok” against a side like the one Bradford had out is a positive, I dread to think how he’d go when up against Hull or Saints forwards in SL.

Gave it a good go the second half with a very young team, once again I wasn’t impressed with Turner he looks lost at every single position he’s played for Cas.

To put things in perspective Bradford are a part time team that’s been put together in the past 6 weeks with a few journey men and some decent youngsters, they will struggle to make the play offs in the championship.

We had a starting 13 in the first half that should have been good enough to open up a 10/16 point lead for our youngsters to defend. That said Bradford had just as many youngsters in there team as ourselves, again our young players don’t look neither fit enough or tough enough,it should be very worrying that we get good quality youngsters at 16 but by the time they are 20 they haven’t improved a jot.

No enthusiasm first half, let down by the senior players.
Jesse did his best, Eden safe at full back.
Turner no half back.
Olpherts, Clare hardly saw the ball.
Richardson a debut try but his long passing was off. Kicking out of hand was good.

Second half youngsters showed more enthusiasm than the senior players did first half.
But the Bradford forwards dominated the kids.

Disappointed that we lost , but the cobwebs have been blown off with half the squad.

Forgot how cold boxing days games are.
2/3 hours now to thaw out.

Bradford's side is still largely the same one as it was last season. They know each other inside out and have recruited former SL players like Anthony England too.

We started taking off first team players from about 30 mins and a lot of them coming on were kids. Cannot read anything into the game or the result. I thought the kids did extremely well and our forwards were pretty good in the first half too. Poor execution but that's to be expected with out full spine out and players playing together that don't or won't ordinarily.

Context, we had missing: Rankin, Feki, Blair, Shenton, Trueman, Watts, McShane, Cook, Moors, Foster, McMeeken, Holmes, Massey, Milner, Griffin. Practically an entire team.

Disgrace, Powell out, Richardson is a dud, Jon Wells is a joke and we are getting relegated. Am I doing this forum thing right?
