| most of its sour grapes. there was a lot of dropped ball. but as stated it was raining for like 20 hours solid. our game plan and more importantly the execution of it was perfection. it was not a great spectacle for neutrals, but for purists and dare i say it. people who have actually played the game, it was a complete performance.
also think as we did not play to the script and we were meant to turn up and roll over, this as irked a few people who lets face it don't like us winning it all the time.
i actually feel for some of the Cas team, the comments from some of their own fans are poor, bottled it, did not perform, did not try, did not want it, they clearly no nothing of the game, don't think any cas players did not try or bottled anything, it was just not their day and they got well beat by a superior side.

Like two punch drunk hobo's fighting over a half eaten kebab.
Bar Flowers absolute brain explosion who remembers anything else about that game bar Saints falling over the line to victory?
Utterly shambolic game.

| Quote: Him "He has come across that way however I’m sure there’s players in all teams that were winning the league that can seem like that. I’m sure opposition fans may have said similar about McGuire or other Leeds players.
What worries me is how rattled Gale was. You could see he was visibly rattled/shaken etc however you want to phrase it. That doesn’t bode well for when he’s playing for England. Against Australia there will be periods of the game where we are under severe pressure and he didn’t seem to react well to it in the Grand Final.'"
I think you might find that "rattled" was down to not wanting to be tackled, rather than anything else, due to the infection to his surgery. In real terms, he shouldn't have been playing, but like that was going to happen.

| It was a poor game, Cas were very poor. It probably was the worst GF of all time.
However, leeds won comfortably, they won at a canter and looked like if necessary they could step up a few gears. The lads were virtually perfect defensively and were good attacking wise and managed the game wonderfully.

Hmmm not so sure on that. He seemed very easy to rile both with his own teammates and at Leeds. And didn’t seem that way early on. It was only when Leeds went a couple of scores ahead that this appeared.
