We're not all Southern Softies:



Unlucky!!!!
We snatched the game from you either side of half time, but don't forget, this is the first game of the season & a lot has been learnt by both sides.
Come the end of the season, I think we will be in the mix, & hopefully you will be too.
By the way, thanks for letting us have "Dorny" back!!!!

The try just before half-time was down to Sargent being a lazy b-stard and not wanting to drive the ball in. We should know by now that Dorn pounces on any stray passes you throw after all the games he did it in last year. It was just silly play.

Definitely a forgettable game to say the least. Cas didn't seem to know what to do when they got towards the try line which was worrying. I think when Sherwin is back we'll be a lot more dangerous.

I can't believe some of those shocking passes that were being thrown about near Dorn, we should know better than anyone (except maybe Warrington icon_lol.gif ) what he can do.

Sargent had a shocker. Hudson was a worthy MOTM, when he came back on in the second we definitely improved IMO.

All that being said, the reaction of a lot of Cas fans today was absolutely pathetic. First game of the season, losing by 4 points and booing the players is ridiculous.

Definitely a game we should have been looking to win, but all is not lost on 1 poor performance. I'm still confident we'll go well. A win or draw and we're guaranteed to finish above Wigan anyway. icon_wink.gif icon_lol.gif

As disapointed as i am with the performance of the players today. Cant fault the effort but we did play too much dumb rugby. I am more disapointed with the fact that some fans seem to just want to go to have a go at the players. I know people pay there money and have the right to there opinion but i am ashamed to be associated with some of the fans in attendance today. I am sure most fans like me down hearted because we should have won today but for fans to be booing not just at full time but at half time when we are down 6 4 makes us look nothing short of backwards and simple which im afraid a few of fans are.

Some of our fans are completely clueless, stood with my dad today which i probably wont be doing again after some of the most ridiculous comments i have ever heard from some people.

One guy was complaining how we "got rid" of Dorn and swapped him for Widders icon_lol.gif

Another comment was that we should sack Matterson because he's had 3 years and done nothing icon_lol.gif

He also seemed to think we had a divine right to beat Quins today, i tried (and failed) to explain that we have no right to win any game and that wins have to be earnt. He was more interested in the fact that we would "lose a thousand fans" just because we lost one game

I personally cannot remember the last time we won our opening Super League match.

Neither team deserved to win today imo, thought a draw would have been a fair result. We played well in spells and made a few good yards and put in an average attacking display. Defense was quite good but very lazy at times

Imho Quins were average and as has been said, the game was won and lost around half time, i wouldn't say we were worse nor better than them today.....however if we are to be serious contenders for top 8 (something which i think may be a little too much for us this season) then we need to step up, Quins/Salford/Huddersfield etc etc are teams which we should be looking to beat.

One game proves nothing folks icon_wink.gif

Tbh i think it was between Goldy and Hudson today, though i agree, Goldy should of got it. He had a very good game at FB and seems to have conquered his fear of the high ball, fantastic catch when he had to hit the post

Quote: Snoopy "Think your right mate. Hudds could be a tough bunch this season. I think a lot of teams have recruited well enough to be better teams than 2008 and closing the gap on the top two although still a way off but we are all getting closer.
First game of the season is always a bit of a lottery so its disappointing to hear that Cas fans are booing their team.
Totally agree with you, booing on the opening game is a massive over reaction, even more so at Cas who had 10 debutants on show today, i'm sure it will have been a minority though. Cas's downfall this season I feel will be their recruitment, not that they have recruited badly, far from it but for me they have recruited too heavily and brought in too many new faces and it will take time for them to gel. Towards the back end of last season Cas were showing signs that they could compete in super league and had some great wins but they've got to start from virtually scratch again rather than having to build on last seasons end with a steady influx of fresh blood.
