I don’t think you was particularly out of form at the business end of the season. The truth was that you playing harder and more in form teams. For all these injuries you keep moaning about, none of them were hardly star players and a few were covered by loan signing ( that probably performed better than what was injured ). What I’m claiming is that if the regular 17 that played up to Easter was to be playing at the business end you would off still lost the same game in the same manner. [size=150If you disagree please tell me which games would of gone your way had you had a full 17?
[/size
All considered I really don’t think you was that unlucky with injuries. You have to consider that you are a one trick pony team, I don’t think anyone can deny that. What you fail to mention is the incredible good luck to had with star man Chase barely missing a game all year. Of course you’ll only see it through black and amber glasses and filter out the contrary evidence that doesn’t suite your bias view of the game.

| All this CT fan false bravado comes from nothing but fear.
WT have finally taken steps to right the wrongs in our house, for decades you've been able to plod along (even when relegated) as CT always had the safety net of having the shambolic neighbors next door. You looked good in comparison as we bumbled from calamity to calamity.
Things have changed at WT and EVERYONE knows it.
The way I see it; there are two types of Cas fan at the moment. Those that admit they're scared of WT & those who are in denial.
We're coming after you!
- For me these games will be our cup finals, every WT fan will admit that! We have a score to settle!

Fantastic attempt at trolling, or you're even more of a deluded idiot than I already thought you were - congratulations.

Speaking of deluded morons, here's another!
Ok then, 4 props down, 2 second rowers a centre and both wingers (all starters) - take the same number out of ANY team and you'll see just how weak they get.
For example, using them numbers if you did that to the Leeds team you would lose: Peacock, Leuluai, Bailey, Whoever the 4th prop is, Ablett, Clarkson, Jones-Bishop, Hall and Senior...tell me that isn't weakened and would effect results?
As for which games would have gone the other way, straight off the bat is the Hull KR game at the end of the season, if Cas still had a pack they would have won that game with ease and there's a number of others too, but you're too much of a deluded troll to notice that.

TBH, Wakefield have a good record against Cas in SL. Also, during the time from 2000 to 2009 Wakefield's finishing position in the league was 0.6 places better than Castleford's (if you include our time in NL1). So, where has all your unjustified paranoia come from? Both sides have been in the doldrums for the last 10 years or so. Had it been in the 1980s or 1990s when we were vastly superior to you, I could have understood this, but recently we've been fairly evenly matched.
Prime examples of bravado we've seen on here have been:
From yourself: "there are two types of Cas fan at the moment. Those that admit they're scared of WT & those who are in denial" having been written before a game has been played with new squads and new coaches.
From WTW's deehell: "you would of lost all the game you did despite who was playing". Classic rubbish that simply can't be backed up in any way shape or form.
From imwakefieldtillidie: (on next season, again with no clue as to how the team and coach perform) "I can't see you causing us too many problems. In fact, if it weren't for Rangi Chase, I don't think you'd cause any problems at all."
From newgroundb4cas: (on next season, again with no clue as to how the team and coach perform) "I think we will be well above you next season .."
Bravado:
Defiant or swaggering behaviour or a pretence of courage; a false show of bravery or disposition toward showy defiance or false expressions of courage.
All these look defiant and swaggering to me. All from Wakefield fans, too.
You like the word denial, don't you? I wonder when we'll be treated to it again on this thread.

You fail to see the third - the Cas fan who is just bored and doesn't care about petty local rivalry between idiots.

| Just finished searching all the local news channels on TV and Radio to see what substances have been dumped in the Calder over Wakey way because something has definitely caused Sandal and DunbHell to lose their sanity.
BTW - We don't need Tadulala.

Totally disagree and iam a Trin supporter. Why would they be scared? They will keep on doing what they do with confidence they will (possibly ) beat us and do well next season. Trin are only just coming back around so we need to be cautious as to our ambitions too (but iam confident of improvement as we could not regress after last season). By the way Mr Gronkowski trolling is not defined by holding a different opinion to your own. No matter how bad you think it sounds.

Not really...
Quote In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: "That was an excellent troll you posted".'"
So to get this thread back on topic:
Tadulala is naff, I'll take some of the u20s players over him instead thanks.

A discussion forum is where people discuss things fella. You get funny when people dont agree with your opinion and you become a bit precious. Anyway Semi is no longer a SL player and i would be surprised if Cas got him in. You have Owen, Thompson, Dixon, Youngquest who are far better than Tadg.

I don't need to stoop to speculation about what we might and might not have done last season. It was you that came up with the comment about "you would of lost all the game you did despite who was playing" despite STILL giving no good reason at all for why you think this is the case.
If you seriously think we're a one-trick pony team, then you don't know a thing about Cas Tigers - Chase has rightly taken a lot of the limelight (and I suppose that having read the papers and listened to the commentators, all you're doing is recycling the hearsay), but with players like Huby, Arundel, Clark, Orr, Milner, good kicker in Dixon, Emmitt, Owen, Ferres, Walker we've clearly got one or two players who can produce the goods. However, why let facts get in the way of a good soundbyte?
You still can't back up your speculation (labelled as "FACT"icon_wink.gif and you still fail to show that you understand anything about Castleford's performance last year. Your arguments are wafer-thin and simply don't hold up to the lightest of scrutiny. The only player you seem to know even a little about is Rangi Chase, and despite your assertion that we "would of lost all the game you did despite who was playing", you've not given any reason why. Which replacement players do you think were as good as the original squad players, and why?

You do realise only 2 years ago you were above us in the table? it was only your ridiculously bad performances last year which meant we were above you (and one of our best seasons for a while, until the business end of the season because of 12 injuries to FIRST-TEAM PALYERS). And another thing you do realise you only stayed up because of Crusaders forfeiting, so get down off your high and mighty stool and just think, where would you have been if the Welsh had not dropped out of Super League?

a) our performances weren't ridiculously bad last season - they were about as bad as we expected them to be, given the position we started in and the scratch squad we had assembled; that's why beating you at your place and Shudds at ours were met with such enthusiasm.
b) is a 'high and mighty stool' what I do on a Saturday morning after a heavy night on Ossett Brewery's finest?
c) no we didn't.

You have been on playground duty too long...talk about "My Dad is bigger than your Dad"
Could you and the rest of the Wakey troll squad give it a rest for, oooh a week at least?.
Like i said on a previous post you have made some good signings but will we have to put up with more posts like this until February

If you want to re-hash a discussion from 6 months ago, feel free to delve into the archive of the WTW forum to find all the posts that I and various other people made about the franchise decision at the time it was actual news; I certainly won't be doing it for you.
