Best be quick because the odds will be shortening,you can still get Evens Toronto with a six point start and the only reason for that is the total lack of interest,but if you fancy it get on now
Be almost 10/11 the pair once the squads are a announced.

Everyone questioned the signing of Griffin at the time it was announced, but he was far better than any of our back-rowers last year. Likewise, Olpherts looks better than I expected. In Danny Richardson we’ve bought one of the best goal kickers in Super League, and that alone might win some games we would otherwise lose with Mata’utia etc rotating the kicking duties.
I think we’ve got a squad to compete and if we get into the play-offs and have most of the players fit in September/October then we have a shot. But it will require us to be more-or-less injury free and on form and other clubs to be plagued by injury and/or out of form.
It's easy to be positive before season kicks off let's see how positive you are about recruitment five games in. Got a feeling you will have a different view

I’m usually a positive optimist with foresight, and a negative pessimist with hindsight.

I think with a bit more luck on the injury front, we can finish above Huddersfield, Hull Kr, Wakey, Toronto and probably Salford. Could even go the whole way in the challenge Cup.

Win/lose/or draw we will still follow the Tigers because it's what we do. Come Sunday we'll all be chomping at the bit and get the season off again. Expectations are always high that's the FUN. COYF

Positive - on the 10th round we might pick up our first 2 points of the season and Daryl saves his job and career


Although we are a game for most sides at full strength, we’re not going to have anywhere near that this season...genuinely...are we.

You say Toronto are a bang average side so are we Toronto are next team behind us in betting to win super league how often do bookies get it wrong and that's presuming both teams have full fit team all season . Cas are same price to finish bottom as they are top tell me can you get more bang average side then that.

Thankfully this forum does not represent the majority of Cas fans ..... over 7000 tickets sold already for the Wigan game next week . That’s a great achievement for a Friday night game in the middle of winter .
