| Awesome match and Cas have some really good attacking flair. Attacked us on the fringes and didn't go toe to toe with us and it paid dividends. Cas should have won TBF you bombed about 4 certain tries. Really really good game.

I always thought you were the better in the first half with us better in the second. Typically i always watch my side more and never felt we had the composure to win it, the bombed chances proved that in the end. I think that's pretty much summed up our better half to the season also, (the games we lost before cos we were crap were nothing to do with composure however, we were just crap lol). I think we defended well in chunks, but i always felt that KR could go from their own line and score within a couple of sets, using that better composure. I'm a bit gutted we lost of course, but i'll take those defeats over "useless, pathetic, not fit to lace ma boots" defeats from earlier in the season. I think on the whole Hull KRs game plan is pretty simple, but still tough to beat. A good set of forwards who bash you around a lot, with a sprinkling of good angled running from the likes of Newton and then end result being, give Dobson a bit of space to do his stuff. Easy to spot, but so tough to stop sometimes. Also, Charnley didn't half finish his chances well. Looks to have good pace, especially first 20m and caught us out every time. One for the future i guess.

Having 2 props out will make hell of a difference.
Lets hope it's not as serious as first though, though according to TM both could be out for the season.
My gut feeling is HKR will just pip us in the end, a bit like the crusaders game last week. Hope i'm wrong.'" Sorry, you were right

| Losing after the hooter is the worst feeling in the world (in RL terms). Probably felt worse then when Leeds beat us last year. Can't even remember the last time we won a game with the last kick / move of the match

On the face of it maybe, but you made far fewer mistakes, conceded far fewer penalties, had more composure and an infinitely better kicking game.
We probably showed superior individual ability but as a team you stuck with the winning formula you have devised so while I feel we were unlucky to lose I wouldn't say you were lucky to win...you worked for it especially in terms of scrambling defence when we were opening you up like Xmas.

Yeah and look what the lead to, more heartbreak, as Far Town went over twice in the last 9 minutes. I think it's a cynical mindset I have ever since that cup semi in 99 that I always back us to lose in the last few minutes and more often then not, we do

As opposed to the 1986 Challenge Cup final where a missed conversion from Rovers proved the difference*
*I say difference, however Castleford were the only deserving winners that day.

Correct, Rovers play to a game plan and we never stray from it. It's remarkable that it has been as successful as it has really.
You played some outstanding free flowing rugby which cut our makeshift backline to pieces with consumate ease in the second half and on another day you would of had 4 trys the calibre of the one Rangi Chase scored. It was really just poor finishing that cost you
