It seems Cas are allowed to obstruct players at the drop goal and get away with it, unlike Ryan Morgan.

The Cas players barely moved, similar to fatty Smith's pathetic attempt. Cas won, take it like a man.

I will when refs start looking both ways.

Dear me.

Absolutely. I hope for a Hull v Cas final as it will give us a new name and probably the best possible final. Hull or Leeds certainly won't be the type to ease off but finals footy is a different beast. Cas have survived despite their mistakes and thus can learn from it so I think we'll see a more composed Cas next week which should make for one of the best finals in recent years.

I think Saints & Hull are 2 teams who have learned how to play Cas this season. I would much rather play Leeds in the GF as they are one team who haven't so far.

Cas need to learn how to see games out. A few times this season they've sat on a comfortable lead and then clinging on at the end.

They were home & dry with 10 to to. They've not got much wrong this year, but closing games out is something they need to work on for next year.

It did seem like we were playing the last 20 secs of NFL, Cas use a lot of blockers in there game plays which seems to out smart the Refs at times.

They are allowed to stand their ground and protect the kicker. It was smart play.

They didn't stand, they moved across the players path.

In the cup and first league game whom was the referee?

I bet Mark Percival's kicking himself this morning, although he'd probably miss, lol.

Not read the thread but read this post. Tigertot, if this is a about the obstruction then it is what it is. An obstruction. If he hadn't done it Barba still gets the ball and it's game over. Poor judgement by the saints player. It's a game of fine margins!

Cas have played two big knock out games this year, they were comfortably beaten in one and despite showing great nerve to get through last night at the death were not at their usual standard and were fortunate Saints missed so many kicks and a crazy penalty got them out of jail.

The pressure will be even bigger next week. I know this is not the Leeds of old but they have done OT many times, it wont faze the team one bit and Hull will be an even bigger obsticale given their big final victories now and big wins over Cas this year they will go there full of confidence.

Anyway, looking forward to another good game tonight, the final should be great whoever it is an all west yorkshire derby or a new name on the cup which would be long over due.

Just like what happened with Matty Smith's attempt. Difference is....his went wide so nobody mentions it.
