I agree that Cas played very well and dominated us like the slightly too soft team we were. What I can't understand is where our urgency in attack and play of the ball went from last Friday night?
The main difference between the two sides all games was the urgency to play the ball and make quick meters to gain momentum running at the line. This was also present in most of Huddersfield's attack today. The whole 80 minutes of our game I saw none in Cas's 20. We never looked like threatening that line and we never utilised Walshaw when we got down there only just to get a few meters in the middle of the field.

So I ask what changed in a few days? The effort was there and the performance wasn't as many are saying dreadful but the urgency and decision making was terrible. The decision making is not coaching all the time its the players making instinctive decisions that cost us a few tries. The urgency in playing the ball is part of the coaching for me as well as the players determination.

I think emotion often gets the better of fans regarding their own teams performance. If you can bare to watch us and them again they are pretty much identical games - though Bradford have more urgency they achieve little - we have more flair and thus had more chances but without the grunt to make it count. It was a lack of effort but it was a lack of effort to do the right things that was our downfall - ditto the Bulls.

We are both poor teams but unlike London both especially ourselves and the Bulls to a degree have enough players to be a lot better and certainly match it with teams like Cas.

Difference is the Bulls and their coach know a four pointer when they see one were as our lot believe their own hype and simply won't get it until it's to late. For those who've been around a while we had this issue with Hudds (before they were good.

Didnt think Cas were that good, thought the Wakey fans were outstanding. cant understand how a side playing in an atmosphere like that created by the fans in a derby match at a fantastic stadium could fail to be motivated. Think there needs to be major changes one way or another

well its a good thing we werent that good then or we would've run up a cricket score.... As for your fans they were okay but do they like to jewitt jewitt?

Think most of us can see that Cas are a well drilled outfit this year and the score line tells you that

Castleford definitely are a good side this year. Let's face it, Sundays score hurts twice as much because it was Cas' because of local bragging rights but in all honesty they are a well coached side who are up for it this season and they are playing some good rugby.

I hope they don't get lumbered with the 'classy cas' tag yet though because they are far from that and that would devalue the team of years ago who were worthy that accolade.

What worries me, is not so much the losses this season but the high number of points being conceded in so many games. I was going to say we need to work on our defensive structure but we don't appear to have one.
