I agree with most of what you say but McGoldrick has been good at FB this season, so I wouldn't change that aspect of our team...

I think he has too mate, but at the moment, we only have Chase trying to create anything. Sherwin is doing nothing. We need a 3rd pivot on the field and its the only way I can see us finding one.



Slightly OT, think Jordan Thompson has gone very well since his introduction. Sound on kicks and carries strongly. Seems to have ok pace too.

drop sherwin, play mcgoldrick and chase as half back combo .thompson to fullback also tm back to oz.second thought take shifty with him

He can tackle?? WHEN?? he not bad ball in hand but he is crap in defense.



Ill tell you where i think we gone wrong! not letting caddick take over, also the bloke pumping some money into wakey is from cas but RW and JF turned him away 2! I have always defended RW on here but have now see the light! its time to enjoy the rest of super league till end of next season!!

What's going wrong ?



We have a coach 2 years past his sell by date.

=#8040FFBranson, Caddick & the scrap metal bloke, well done board

All good points and the majority should be sorted by our current coaching staff. It seems we have the same mistakes week after week. Whilst some or if not most of the current team arent good enough we cant go out and get rid of them all. Unfortunately the coaching staff will take most of the blame. As much as Matterson might be a nice guy and it might not be all his fault we have some of our worst defeats under him, some shocking scorelines and some daft decisions. I think a change of coach could do us good, but realistically is it going to happen? We are skint and i doubt RW will sack him.. pay off his contract and then recruit anyone to come within. No other coach would probably take on the challenge the way it is. I think we could be stuck with Terry and the current BOD for a while to come yet. Depressing times ahead.

well i am another whos voting with my feet enough is enough love the club but carnt watch another tm half time show i didnt get a season ticket this year (lucky me) (i always wait for the recruitment first not the richard wright money grabber early bird as they call it) but have only missed one game catalan,we were lucky really to hold on last week against celtic yet again we couldnt control the game and after half time just clung on to what was a very bottom of super league clash to me which is daja vu at wakefield last night good first half forget the rest.recruitment has being very poor what with the on and off saga with clayton who to me is a nl1 player and tony martin said it all.terry matterson carnt get the best out off his aussie pals so to me he has to go,snitch is half the player he was last year and now is a half back?,higgins has no speed and is on the widders diet,sherwin thinks hes captain and does what he wants taticly,clayton?wainwright? the list goes on feel sorry for shenton,westy.mcgoldrick who to me still have a go.we have talent flocking through the junior ranks what carnt get a place buy hey as they say "us aussies stick together" say no more

a really big change is needed at castleford and i know i am just another ranter but i am another ranter who wont be paying anymore money in to the club with matterson in charge i know its not only down to him but its a start in a shake up what is needed for players and once a proud well supported club

Dreadful game last night. Two poor teams on show, we were just lucky that you were as bad as you were. Any top side would have ripped us both apart last night.

cooke took charge ,sherwin watched

If rumours are to be believed some of the players went around Xscape last friday night,you would think after that performance

and the fact they were playing again on monday they wouldn't be out,this is the problem with the players they act like an amateur side.



They are paid professionals they should be acting more like one,i have nothing against them having a beer now and again but we have a serious booze culture at the club,and is it any wonder when once at Pontefract races the whole squad was there and the one in worst condition was the coach.

You hear this at every club when things go wrong. There is nothing wrong with it. In fact some australian sides consider it vital to being a team and struggle when a player doesnt join in. I once spoke to Chris Anderson who said the best thing to do when a team is struggling is get on it for a day. The NRL has much bigger booze issues than us and it doesnt prevent them producing quality RL.



I dont 100% agree, but that has no bearing on the performances. I live in Warrington and they are always out in Stockton Heath where I live, my mates in Widnes, St Helens, Wigan and back home all report the same about their players.



The game has a booze culture. Nothing like it was pre super league, but its there alright. But I for one prefer that to the footballers in a hotel culture in the round ball game!!
