Discuss Castleford Tigers v Catalans Dragons here.

[muckymunksy]

40-10 Catalans 

[barnyia]

According to the squad there's no mc lllorum, Ben Garcia, tomkins and Davies. 

[Sir Kevin Sinfield]

Several Cas fans having a hissy fit on social media as they have 1 more player than Catalans in the England v All Stars. They still only have a handful of academy players in the 20 man squad, last week they were desperate to keep their academy, you’d think they’d be happy to give 1 or 2 a first team game.

14 Englishmen in Cas squad! Your go.

[Old Frightful]

Cas 0 Catalans 8, and the BBC Radio Leeds commentary team are going mental after the 2nd Catalans try citing a suspect knock on/forward pass type scenario.

They're now playing up about another Catalans' forward pass allowed "right in front of the touch judge".

I ain't watching so can't give an opinion.

Tbh there are few from Cats. I'm more confident about that. 

[Old Frightful]

Catalans in again, more commentary objections.

Cas 0 Les Cats 14.

[corvusxiii]

Useful defence from Les Cats. Anything special from Cas being shut down time and again.

Catalans 16 - 6 Castleford

That’s 9 wins from 10 games and Catalans remain top of the league.
Cas drop below 50% on the win percentage.

[jacobus]

I have to say I am pleasantly surprised by that result. 

 

Withouth Sam Tomkins and Tom Davies I couldn't see us getting enough points. 

 

As a Dragons fan I am still waiting for the bubble to burst and us to get 40-50 put on us away from home each week.
