Don't disagree though that could be down to the stints both put in the previous week. I know Ablett ain't everyone's cup of tea but the effort he put in again last night was phenomenal.

Singleton worked extremely hard in game last night, but he needs to add some power to his game to take him to the next level

Love how so many of you despise Gale. McGuire used to be the exact same in his 20s.

Frustrating that it was the opening quarter again vs Cas that cost us especially after we got off to decent starts vs Hull and Saints (even Melbourne) in previous games.

Singleton and Mullally struggled but they are doing it tough with a lack of senior props to help share the load with them ATM.

Hopefully should get through the next two games with wins (Hudds and Salford) with who we've got now but then we really need some bodies back.

No he wasn't because he had big GF performances and rings under his belt

Win these two and we're looking good IMO.

However....these are exactly the kind of fixtures we've come unstuck in with depressing regularity in the McD years.

you see he spoiled the universal admiration that Cas were getting last year by his strutting that spilled over to the Cas fans .Its not just from the Leeds fans . You were very ungracious even before you got to OT .Rubbed a lot of noses in it and none more so than Mr Gale

Big difference Mcguire was twice as good & never as arrogant.

Absolute rubbish. Mcgurire was never even half as cocky as gale was last season, despite having loads of winners medals more reason to be.

Saying that, i thought gale came across very well in the after match interviews and analysis on sky last night, which was good to see. He's a good player and cas play some brilliant stuff, but there arrogance last season quickly turned opposition fans admiration of them into a dislike for them.

Maybe the grand final highlighted that what you do to leeds throughout the regular season isnt worth getting overly excited about, whilst its good to get the win, come playoff time they're a differant proposition.

With all due respect your fans wrote the book on being ungracious win, lose or draw.

Yeah a legend of the game, being compaired to a player who at 27 was not even a top level super league halfback, against a player who at that stage was already super league all time try scorer and been there done it over and over again.

Gale is a good player who as matured late and had a 2-3 good years, he is not even in danny brough or mark Sneyd league never mined McGuire

Leeds fans never stood outside OT and ridiculed the opposition fans saying things like ' why bother turning up? 'etc Ive been on other forums and they answered the Cas fans comments about last nights game one said 'that comment just reminded me of how I was just a bit chuffed when cas lost in the GF' and that was from a Wire fan .they were great to us after they hammered us twice at Wembley

Trust me there was tonnes of disrespect towards Saints as I went to every grand final between the 2 sides. Daft chavs from leeds referring to St Helens as your "grand final bitches" . Leeds fans are the King's of belitting every other sides achievements.

where have all these Castleford fans come from? everytme Ive ventured on their board it looks like no ones been on it for ages .

I've been posting on rlfans best part of a decade. Cas fan's generally use cas forum. Similar to Saints salford widnes type of forums.

Of course he was, that's why Luke was voted by his fellow Pros for Man of Steel last season. Something Danny Boy has never won.

I'm sure he's gutted when he looks at his 8 GF rings, 2 CC medals, 3 WCC medals, 3 LLS wins and 2 Harry Sunderland awards

yeah but has he got an albert goldthorpe medal and a hair transplant

Poor Danny. Where did it all go wrong?

between those two players there is no comparison and I wonder what was said between Gale and Delaney

Delaney told him to keep his hair on.

Aye and he was really gutted about it after he'd won his 8th GF with yet another sublime M.O.M performance in a big Final whilst confirming your hero as the 2017 GF Hide n Seek Champ.

That comment has genuinely made me laugh out loud. Brilliant stuff. Cas were great for 20 minutes, leeds dominated the rest of the game. Had you had a goal kicker you get the win. Both sides will be there or thereabouts.

Adrian vowles won it once aswel, but he couldnt hack it when he joined a big club.

The 'Leon Pryce Trophy' is awarded for that honour, I believe.
