6 from 6 absolutely brilliant! Don't think there was anything for the panel tonite. Injuries from tonight's game? Only saw CLare who seemed to turn/twist on his knee. Only 10 mixed tackles against very fresh legs tonite.

Job done over Easter, great effort by all involved over the 3 games, sweet Caroline all night tonite.

Double header at easter won't be a thing anymore by the sounds of things from what they said on sky pre match

Have Cas ever won 3 from 3 over Easter under Powell ?

Never liked Sam Tomkins on the field because he was very good and scored too many tries against Cas aswell as getting in the Refs face too much. But as pundit and in the future a coach he is very good. Puts Wilkins to shame.

He was just 17 if you know what I mean.

Good entertainment all round, enjoyed seeing the kids and Cas scored some nice tries. Not sure the neutral would have got much out of it tho.

Much as I encourage Cas to use the forwards more, perhaps tonight spreading it wide would have produced a lot more points.

This whole Easter schedule has not been good for the players or the sport in general and I for one am glad the protests have led the RFL to drop it for next year.

Of all the criticism that we find if we wanted that's 3 wins from 3. We have to understand that we also have players out

Everything went down right.
Thought mamo had a good game, one or two silly errors but all in all played well.
I hope this doesn't come across as bitter but this must be the first time I've seen Mamo play well in a Cas shirt, perhaps this is his level! (Academy)..

Poor game, did not enjoy that one bit. Only thing I'll say is 6 points in a week and that's all that matters.

Mainly good comments but still a few trolls. 6 out of 6 over Easter like someone said everyone should be happy with that. Yes saints played youth tonight but that meant much less fatigue and probably a bit more enthusiasm given our kids 3 games in 9 days. I thought we were very professional tonight. Many said could have been a banana skin but never looked in doubt. Well done all concerned

Saints lads did well so I’m sure CW will be happy overall. We did enough, yes some handling errors but to be expected when mentally as well as physically spent. Our defence was good and discipline also much improved. QQ did amazingly well so any claim of garbage is plainly ridiculous at this stage of his development and first full appearance. Shameful comment against a 17 year old. Saints fans were full of praise for their debuts mistakes n all and we should show the same or we can’t call ourselves “supporters”. Well done lads on 6/6.

Agree.

Credit to everyone involved with Saints tonight including their solid turn out of fans who braved the M62 on a Friday evening.

You can only play what’s in front of you, be it u19’s, I thought he had a good game just my opinion. Yours may differ.

Be a strange easter weekend feel like two big clubs have gifted us four points but not knock it up to them lol . As we are not fare off top four on paper we look a million miles away from being a top four team on field for sure

3 outa 3 over Easter. If nobody is happy with that I don't know what they'd be happy with. 🐯 COYF

What a credit to the saints set up we could only dream of having such players in our second team, the turn out from the Saints was great at least six buses , six points to us well done lads

If, and I emphasise if, we come away with 6 from 6 from the Easter programme, that will have been a fantastic effort. Everybody on this forum would have settled for that before the first game no matter how it was achieved. Apologies, perhaps not everybody.
Absolutely. It's not been great to watch but I'll take wins for now.

QQ only made one mistake that I can remember a dropped ball from the high kick which was a bad one to take. There kicks looked difficult all night.
