19 Sept: SL Elimination Final: Warrington Wolves v Castleford Tigers KO 7.45pm (TV)

[Cheshire Setter]

Never thought I’d say this but as a Warrington fan I miss Kevin Brown. I also look forward to Gareth Widdop on the left side.

[Just Browny]

Some of the holding down in this half has been insane. Finally Kendall spots one.

[Man of Kent]

Is Flakey Blake fit?

[snapski]

How can he send that up as a try. Absolute nonsense

[Man of Kent]

Clark held up. Or is he?

[Cheshire Setter]

Westwood the ‘Peter Pan’ of rugby league apparently... not seen the cartoon for many years but I don’t remember any shattered eye sockets and bust lips on the other characters?

[Gates1]

Clear no try.

Should never have been sent up as one.

I know, Hughes has done it every tackle... 

[Cheshire Setter]

Can’t give that surely! McManus will talk

[Cheshire Setter]

If Warrington don’t score in the next five minutes they don’t win.  Simple as.

Nope

[Dave T]

Jeez, looks like we will go from playing with 1 half to none.

[DavidM]

Dead leg ? What is he going on about

[Man of Kent]

If I was a Wire forward I’d want to chin my backs. Their pack has done OK but been let down.

[Man of Kent]

Blake looking extremely Flakey

[Cheshire Setter]

Game saver that from King. For a short while anyway.

[meast]

What's the reason for the Warrington fans boycotting the game?

[Man of Kent]

6-0 Cas HT

[Dave T]

And that is ultimately our issue.

We couldn't score in a brothel.

On the positive side he won’t be replaced by Matty Smith?

Wire have a bit more class in key positions (Ratchford, Austin, Clark in particular) and a potentially strong bench.

Cas have a fair number of starting 17 players sat in the stands again/still (Gale, Eden, Shenton, Moors, JSL, Massey, Foster) and our interchanges will look weak with Maher, young Jacques O'Neil and Clarkson likely to feature (2 of them at least).

Expect a Wire win, Cas will have to build on our recent improved defence to have any chance imo and need to find some spark from some where.

 

Surely mentioning and listing players who aren't playing is outdated now? Every team bar the odd one or two have lots of players missing through injury, there should be more focus on who is playing rather than who isn't.

Both teams have 17 players representing them and that's all the should matter.

Mmmm... Bill Arthur ‘It’s a playoff game, this is what you expect’...

I bloody hope not.   My standards aren’t that low I’d like to think?

Where are the Wire fans?

It's not a final so they won't be interested I guess?
