What the f has happened to Austin's game?!

What does it take for this referee to award a penalty? Cas were blatantly lying on too long there and he refused 4-5 times in a few sets to award an obvious penalty! Ridiculous. Even if we win this its not been anywhere near good enough.

these attempts at drop goals are hilarious haha

no one wants to win it.

I’m still in the price out camp. We’re awful.

Tom lineham too

Well our marquee player won us the game in the end there. As a team attacking wise still not at all good enough though. Effort there but no flair. Still, we didn't panic, that was a big plus despite the ref utterly refusing to give blatant penalties during the last 10.

That's the spirit.

The ref had a shocker tonight

there were some big performances out there defensively tonight... some of those players really stood up to be counted... you have to applaud that.

its just a shame that we have absolutely no attacking prowess whatsoever.... absolutely nothing.

I won't come on here and be a happy clapper, but the team were giving it everything there and Hicks was giving Castleford every single decision. I don't know why folk watch rugby hoping to hate it. It was a decent game and well matched.

Thought Jason Clark worked incredibly hard tonight. My MOM.
King, Philbin, Hill and Cooper all put in really hard shifts.
Currie was decent - great off load for the try.
Ratch was his usual self. No complaints.

Widdop was..... on the field?

Thought Danny Walker benefited from having more game time.

Charnley hacks me off still with his milking of the penalties.

The result means the jury is still out.
Another big one next Thursday.

I live in hope Widdop gets better as if not he’s stealing a living.

I saw 2 teams giving everything and both of them will take heart from it. It wasn’t an ugly game.
It looked like a stripped back game from Wire. There were some errors but by and large roughed it out, we got the win.
I have to give Cas credit as we couldn’t grind them down. They are a fitter team than I have them credit for.

Very fair assessment. Felt you had more territory and deserved the win but we were durable and stuck in the fight. Don't think any of the half backs covered themselves in glory today but it was a tough dogged game that neither side wanted to lose. Could tell the game play was to murder millington what with watts missing and it was executed well. Your pack who was so bad last week fronted up tonight.

Even if we had lost tonight i still would've applauded the effort by the players. Taking away the coach, relative spending, marquees etc they gave it a dig. Our attacking play in the last 10 needs work that clearly our three current coaches between them can't provide. It is appalling.
