Having read through the Cas forum, many of them are tipping a big win for the Tigers.

But there are also a few who are wary of the Kear factor - his ability to get his side up for one off games.

What do you all think the scoreline will be this weekend - predicting with your head and not your heart !

Unfortunatley I think we will get beat by 30

Maybe compete early on but if we fall a couple of scores behind I can easily see the floodgates opening.

Hope to god im wrong !

Expecting a loss, perhaps the adversity could narrow the gap, but Cas play good open Rugby and last season showed Trinity are not able cope with that. Something along the lines of 12 – 36 to Cas.

well maybe im optomistic or just mad in the head but i dont think there will be a lot in it at all, 1st game of season fired up to proove the critics wrong if we go with the right mental attitude get our tactics right i think it will be close maybe 28-20 either way

Dont hold out much (any) hope for the season and think our weakness i the pack will see us over run in most games and we will be lucky not to finish bottom, particularly with the points dediction in the post. You never know, we may have some positive news before the game that might bring a bit of much needed confidence into the camp after a pretty poor 2 months.

I really do think we can win on Saturday, I think the lads will be revved up and ready to go and 1 trick pony Kear will have got them firing. I think Cas might concentrate too much on a forward battle and if we dont get sucked into this, throw the ball about a bit the big pitch might just catch them on the hop. Hope so, cos I really fear a long season so would be nice to get a result.

Heart says we might just sneak a 12-16 thriller, head says we'll compete for 60 minutes and end up losing 8-24.

I think we will lose and put up a good fight. Penny will score, but also let a couple in!

Heart says we might sneak it something like 20-18. Head says after a bright start we'll lose about 44-10.

tbh, im not gunna be bothered about the score, im more interested in the effort wakey put in

You will be a happy man then.

I honestly think you're too lightweight and (for the mo at least) lack any kind of depth to the squad.
I can't see you winning more than a couple of games all season. Without any radial recruitment plan - and soon, I can see you finishing the season on minus points.

apart from the last bit, I dont think you will find many who disagree. We will pick up the odd win along the way though as we allways do, but bottom of the league is calling.

Still think as a 1 off for the first week we can pick a win up, we normally start the season well dont forget.
