Richardson is a poor HB isn’t he? Cas’ main problem at the minute, there’s just nothing from him.

We’ve had a better attitude undoubtedly but still suffering the same issues. We’ve no decent distribution from the ruck, Smith is a passenger and Partington is a penalty/error machine. Singo has been leading us around the park today, very good stint from him IMO.

Our interchange props have dropped the intesity right off here.

Bullock, one of the worst introductions to a game ever seen.

Hang on to the bloody ball, Bullock!

Bullock comes on, three balls drops two.

Wire are welcome to him.

There’s soft, and then there’s that. Absolutely ridiculous.

Smithies, dumb penalty.

Smithies is dumb - we knew that.

Richardson should have been shamed off the pitch for his play acting. I suppose not a coincidence that he used to play for St Helens...

If we're giving those "late" tackles as penalties then we should just end the game now.

Deserved yellow card there.

Grand final flashback there - go for dropgoal?

Credit to Smith. Let’s hope these are early signs of s change in his approach.

Just said the same, absolutely bizarre.

Easy 1 point going.


Also why is Byrne above Havard in the pecking order?

I’ll drive Bullock to Warrington.

Need to put the pressure on in the first ten minutes as they are down to 12.

If we can somehow score again at 12-0 we stand half a chance in this game. At only 6-0 I can't see that being good enough to win it.

My concern is that although Cas don't look like scoring, they've had plenty of ball in good space and it doesn't take much to score.

Us on the other hand haven't been near their tryline since scoring a try (itself scored off a monster penalty kick into touch). We don't look capable of getting well into their half off our own backs.
