We just don’t cope well with playing at Cas and I never feel confident. I’m just hoping the effect of that opening game defeat at HKR is a real sharpener for us. It looks like both sides have plenty of points in them, with Cas bombing a few on Sunday.

I think it's about how Wigan will play away from home. Play as they did v HKR the result will be the same.  Keep the same intensity as against Waney and they should win, not by many, but will win. 

Surely they'd never be against Waney?

Shaun loves your club.

"When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer."

I'm expecting Cas to win this. We tend to struggle when we go there and I think the win against Wakefield was terrible preparation because we got an easy win with little effort when really we could have done with a challenge. I think it can be difficult to get the mindset right when coming off a big win and then going to a ground where you find things tough. I don't really think the Wakefield game gave any indication what had improved from the previous game or what we need to work on.

Cas actually showed some threat against Saints but their ability to finish off chances was woeful. They showed a real threat on their left edge and that's where Wigan looked very weak against Rovers. They could potentially cut us apart. I'm hoping Wigan can front up in the forwards but I'm not confident.

I'm going 24-20 to Cas

Castleford have shown a real lack of professionalism the last couple of weeks, with 

1 - the Westerman incident, and

2 - the club's abject attempt at dealing with it

Showing that there is a real issue with the culture throughout the organisation. They are all over the place. 

Culturally,  Wigan are at the other end of the spectrum, and I expect them to give castleford a bit of a hammering.

Now then, it's a race between Sandie....and Fairburn....and the little man is in........yeees he's in.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try

Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen

The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.

Cas surely can't make as many handling errors as they did last week. Still, Wigan to show their class in a reasonably close game.

FT - Castleford 0:36 Wigan. Only one (converted) try in the first half.

Cas were all over us for 30 minutes and we did well to keep them out. We then saw the tackle of the season by the ref, who denied Liam Marshall a nailed on breakaway try. Once Wigan got the first score Cas wilted. I thought Wigan looked a lot fitter and just got stronger as the game went on. He’s probably not got the physical attributes to nail international rugby but Liam Marshall is some Superleague player.
