5-1 penalty count to HKR in the first half, Cas kick chaser was clearly impeded right at the start of the game Kendall waved play on, gave KR a penalty and that's how they got in position to score a try.

5-1 penalty count all that gifted field position in the first half and only 8 points to show for it. But hey McMeeken standing still before the defensive line is "obstruction" and Brierley guiding Millington out of the way is fine right?

Let's ignore Dagger should have been put in the bin too....

Just like Wakefield last week, once the ref caught up to the thuggery and started penalising it, the game was gone.



Richardson, Smith and Massey too.

He went shoulder to shoulder with a much smaller player and when ball bounced out of his path dived as blatant as you'd like. Kendall bought it and the game changed.We worked hard enough to be in with a squeak going into last 20 but whatever chance went with the following 10 minutes shorthanded.In fairness Cas with their busts up middle and overall pressure would likely have won anyway but left feeling Kendall really influenced that 2nd half particularly the 40-60 min.Then it was holding back the tide. I like Cas as a team and Millington as a player but that was a dive.

Richardson ran behind him .Linnett made contact with him. They get given nowadays even if looked bit soft.Why no VR ? Thuggery? Will see if disciplinary give a ban. No point debating with you as your Leave out the name calling please. Karen.

Losing supporter in “blame the ref” shocker.

Not unlike Mr Powell?
Tbf I expected a bigger loss.

Tbf I expected a bigger win.

I can see why the ref gave a sin bin for that. You can easily argue that the Hull KR player has run into the path of the Cas man. If it’s a penalty in that situation it’s pretty much got to be a yellow card as well.

I can also see why the ref gave the Richardson? try and didn’t penalise for obstruction. It looked like the Cas man in front of him was genuinely going for the ball but it went behind him. Though personally if I’d been reffing I’d probably have sent it to the VR. Think that decision is reasonable if it was a non-televised game but was surprised he didn’t use the video ref.

Thought it was good reffing not to sin bin Dagger too. Yes it was a shoulder charge but it was a controlled one and was nowhere near the head.

So 1 good decision and 2x close ones that in real time I agreed with.

Yep.Different aims for our season's. Looking like another year of strife for us despite Smith getting a tune out of some less celubrious players
Effort and spirit in abundance just need key players back plus at least 1 high quality prop. Will get worse before it gets better.

Fair.
The best team won no doubt but that yellow was pivotal.

I was working and missed the game tonight. Did cas have any injuries?

No chance. Your player made no effort to collect the ball. He shoulder barged straight into Millington who was going after the ball. 100% a penalty. If he was going for the ball fair enough. Watch it back. His eyes were on Millo and not the ball.

Also no mention of your try which came from a blatant obstruction on the Cas player trying to collect the high ball in your 10 yard line. Again.... Watch it back if you don't agree.

Fekki, eden, moors, jessie,.foster and cook still out/ not quite ready but very close. Watts has done his tendons in his finger though so that's a month out.

Can't he strap to the next good finger big loss is that

Might be more than 1. He did same thing last year. Not ideal at all.

If you can get past the ref bashing, I thought Clares try was up there with the Makinson's and Johnstone tries, unfortunately for him not as often.
