Sherwin stars in Tigers triumph
A strong first-half performance set Castleford Tigers on course for a morale-boosting 18-10 win over Hull KR at the Jungle.
Tigers led 18-0 at half-time, through tries by Luke Dorn, Michael Shenton and Peter Lupton, all involving Brent Sherwin and converted by Kirk Dixon.

Your not wrong there mate, they were very good. Can't fault them, to only concede 10 points in a game where both teams need wins is very good for the team psycologically. Hopefully get Saints out of the way then push on with a few more wins over Hudders, Wakey and other teams close to us. I think people will agree that this season as been dissapointing in many aspects and parts, but i think not finishing bottom is deserving and shows that when push comes to shove Cas can do the nit and grit to come from 5 or 6 points behind to leap frog teams, i really hope so.tallguyx wrote:i thought the lads tackled brilliant today.
Cas did play well today. Their first half performance was great. However, second half they let it slip a little. Soft tackling was the downfall for KR's first try but apart from that Cas looked strong in defence.
Sherwin has been having good games of late and another good performance today. I believe he should have been awarded the man of the match but im not complaining that it went to Lupton as he too had a good game.
A general weakness is the lack of goal kicking ability. The team when they recieve a penalty look around and are unsure of what to do. When they do decide to go for the 2 points they rarely slot them over. Thankfully, unlike last week it didnt cost us the game this time

1 for Hull KR. I know they grossly exaggerate their crowds, but to bring that amount when they haven't won away all season is a credit to them and the game itself.evo wrote::clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Its just like us the other week taking a hell of alot to Shedingley, 17,000 an odd and we took a lot, was a real credit to our loyal away support and the predicements where in bottom of league, low on confidence going to Leeds on a saturday afternoon, that would be enough to put some of the best supporters off.

I was a really nice win and a nice day. Even got a pat on the back from a KR fan.
Awesome win, korki looked like he pulled his socks up a bit. Leafe looked like he ran with a bit of passion after being injured for so long. And some of shiftys kicking was class. Especially when he went for touch and it didnt get there and we got it. Dunno if that was intentional or not, but it was brilliant. All round good effort, cas dug in when needed right to the end and fought against some ropey ref decisions.
Well done lads, hopefully we can keep it going and get ourselves off the bottom of the table.

That should be our number 1 priority now to finish 10th or 11th.wastedyears1981 wrote: Well done lads, hopefully we can keep it going and get ourselves off the bottom of the table.
We should be looking to beat Quins, Wakey and Giants now, i think if we win them next 3 games we will leap frog Huddersfield who are really struggling for form.
COME ON THE TIGERS!!

It would be nice to come off the bottom and shut up all the pundits and sports writers that normally write the usual drivel about cas. The past few weeks have been some dark times for cas and very frustrating, this is the glimmer of hope I've been looking for.... just really hope they keep it going.WHELDON-ROAD-END wrote:That should be our number 1 priority now to finish 10th or 11th.wastedyears1981 wrote: Well done lads, hopefully we can keep it going and get ourselves off the bottom of the table.

I can honestly see us winning more games and not finishing bottom like the pundits and bookies have predicted. I just hope we can prove alot of people wrong but i would also love to beat Wakey so they don't do the quadruple over us but also squander there top 6 amibitions because so far there 60-24 down to Wire.

i think if you read most of the posts it is relief we have won another game. and if you want to cut it down we won 1 half, its nice to see the points. but id say the weather was a great leveller today we coped better....

If we can turn over Wire with a convicing performance, and shouldve beat them at home. Why oh why cant we turn wakey over ..... Wire looks like they are giving them a good nailing, so on paper we should turn wakey over .....but it never happens ....would be a nice finish to the season if we give wakey a good spanking. If fact, i would take finishing bottom if it ment we had scuppered any chance of wakey finishing in the top six.
