[Futtocks]

Absolutely not a clue who'll win this - just happy that I can watch it.

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Cas by 6.

[Old Frightful]

Cas under all sorts of pressure, they'll do well to survive this without conceding.

[Tony_T]

All started with Putt ripping the ball out, why do they do it. 

[Old Frightful]

Pressure tells, Sam Stone over.

Sneeeyd obliges, 6-0.

[Bull Mania]

Cas reportedly lose an interchange for submitting the wrong team sheet. When you include their "error" for IMG grading, their back office sounds tin pot! 

[Old Frightful]

Another repeat set and cracking Singleton offload allows Burrow to score.

12-0

[Old Frightful]

Timely intercept from Hurley the Cas full back saves another try.

They aren’t having a good week are they? Trying to defend Watts’ attempted “tackle”; sharing a justgiving page for the disciplinary fine and now completing the team sheet incorrectly

Sneeeyd absolutely running the show in the early stages. He's still one of he best in the business.

[Old Frightful]

VR call on a possible Cas try from Senior.

No try.

[Old Frightful]

Rather high number of "six agains" already.

[Old Frightful]

All the pressure on Salford now.

[Old Frightful]

Great pass from Miller for Sam Wood to score.

12-6 with Richardson's conversion.

[Old Frightful]

Yet another six again sees a try to Jack Broadbent.

12-10, ktc.

[Old Frightful]

And they let the kick off bounce and have to drop out.

[Old Frightful]

Salford try but I thought he was offside.

[Old Frightful]

The offside players stayed out of the ten so a spectacular leap and catch from Macdonald sees Salford extend their lead.

18-10 nearly arf tarm.

[Futtocks]

He took that high ball beautifully.

[Harry Stottle]

Dave Woods said this has probably been the best domestic game this season, I agree and for me it is down to one man which is Mr Vella the ref, I then realised he is the Aussie full time ref in SL and does not showboat and think he is the centre of attraction like some of his more esteemed colleagues.

Very very close, VR ?

No doubt their fans will blame the RFL instead of their own clubs' failures.

You're obsessed with the referees don't you get bored?

He was onside but others weren't but they didn't encroach the 10m.
