There were loads of ridiculous moments before 2016 at York, too many to list, but thankfully since then it’s been mostly professional. It’s not even that hard to do, just don’t be stupid and employ the right people. If they let the club down, sack them or move them on, same as any organisation or club should.

See this is what I'm on about. I actually found all those instances on a post by a Cas fan on Twitter btw.

It's a cultural thing at Cas, is it the club or the area? You can't have the club captain tonguing some lass behind Greggs on the eve of the season and it just being forgiven. Should have been sacked instantly for bringing the club into disrepute, if that was my club I'd be fuming if the club kept him on. Players having affairs with other players wives, messaging minors, bullying academy players, players mum getting chinned by teammate in a pub, top try scorer "retiring" to get out of contract, best player gets a drugs ban week before Grand Final... I appreciate these sort of dramas go on everywhere and at other clubs but they manage to either keep them in house or clamp down hard, if not the fans tend to go crackers and hound them out. You only have to look at the reaction on social media from some fans to Carr's cheat outburst, they all backed him and said he was right to say it. What's that all about? Everyone connected with the club needs to have a look at themselves and try to be better in every regard.

22 years old and he's one of the best props in SL already, I'd be surprised if he doesn't go back to the NRL if/when he leaves York.

That deadline is for players for this season, can sign whenever we want for next year. Don’t think there’ll be much more movement for this year but you never know. Mash did say in his press conference that we’re signing players for next year and not planning for anything else other than SL.

You can just say anything on there and create a rumour. He’s contracted for 2027 anyway.

ACL for the poor lad. At least he'll be fit for next years play-offs.

I'd like to see Magic round with a totally random draw made just before the matches take place. Obviously there'd be some logistical issues with that but it would be great fun and would get the media interested.

The stats from Saturday make interesting reading: https://www.superleague.co.uk/match-centre/report/44053 Our 96% completion rate is amazing, only one set not completed. Our post contact metres and tackle busts show how dominant the forwards were while Sts kick returns and total metres show how good Robertson, Welsby, Murphy & Sailor were at the back. Great game that, one of the best I've seen for years.

Company names. CGC Catering & GLL Leisure.

And no ban for Hingano either. Good day all round!

Like I said…

Just 10 years ago we were getting less than 500, playing in amateur grounds and losing to Oxford. Now we’re getting 5000+ and beating St Helen’s in a new stadium that is perfect for the sport. Now I know I’m incredibly biased but this is exactly what RL needs in this country and it gives hope to all the clubs in the pyramid. If you don’t agree then you’re not a fan of the sport at all.

Other than the clear forward pass for the Sts wonder try and the random 6 agains he was alright and let the game flow.

I wouldn’t say Huddersfield have hit form at all, they still look very poor to me. I think it’s just the last two sides they played have been even worse. That win against York could have quite easily gone the other way as there was only a conversion in it plus some dubious video ref decisions both ways and the completion rate was about 70% for both sides.
