Is this the official team?

If so this may go down as the worst on record. How the hell does O’Loughlin keep getting in, he hardly plays!!

It is what it is. Personally, I'm happy that we are flying under the radar. Nobody seems to be mentioning us, so no pressure. I bet it suits Powell and the lads fine for motivation to go and show everyone how good we can be this Friday/(hopefully) next Saturday.

Well I agree partly with the selections of certain individuals however everyone sees things differently.... Clearly!

If that's not motivation for the squad then I don't know what is. I'd like to think they've all seen it, pinned it up on the wall and drawn a big target over it.

This is the same joke of a media that made Kevin Sinfield golden boot a few years back.

RL journalists are beyond crap and quite frankly must not watch the games and just pluck out names they remember hearing at some point.

7 saints, 3 from wakey. You couldn’t make it up.

I would back our team against that “dream team”

Other than macca I don't think our players can have any complaints.

At times others have played well for us but consistency the majority of our players haven't been their. When the club put out on Twitter just our 1,2,3 player of the year left to announce it was obvious macca would be 1st but after that I didn't think there was much between the likes of millo,trueman,Holmes,moors,Milner,,Massey,cook any 2 from that group could have got it as they have all played well without been consistently good.

Spot on ERG.

If looking at that line up doesn't fire up every one of our squad then they aren't made of the right stuff.

It's fired me up.....

Agree with this. Only Macca should be in for me. Too many injuries throughout the year for many to get in.

My issue is some of the players in there and others (non Cas who are not.)

Lomax and Richardson shouldnt be the halves.
SOL missed too many games to be LF for me.
Matty Ashurst is a good player but 2nd best Sr this year? No.
I'm glad to see Topou and Johnstone from Wakey get in though

Sean O'Loughlin should never be in. The bloke has missed 14, yes, 14 games this season, playing in just over 50% of the season. It's an absolute joke.

Greg Eden should be in by that fact as he's the 2nd top try scorer in terms of wingers and has played only 14 games (2 games less).

In terms of the 13 spot, Milner should be in. It's not that he's been amazing but simply for the fact he's most recognisable, hard-working and consistent 13 at the moment, actually contributing more to his team's season than others too.

There's barely any other 13s worth mentioning. I'd have had Charnley over Makinson too. McShane should be in on the fact he's been having to do it all for an injury-hit team.

Whilst I don’t agree with O’Loughlin I would have agreed with Milner either,he’s not our starting 13 and is a penalty machine so can understand his omission.

I agree with Danny Richardson I think the kid is amazing and been seriously impressed by him every time he comes down the lane.

McShane absolutely should have been in there and possibly Eden at a push,Millington and Moors must have been close but no way Milner

I don't agree with Richardson iv never seen him do anything brilliant, the only time he makes the papers is with his goal kicking or drop goals.
