Ah well ... it was nice to get excited for a game again....

Almost 2 am on Monday morning in Sydney... I should go to sleep I guess!!

Listened into the match whilst I'm here in the US. Sounded like we made far too many mistakes with ball in hand near their line, especially in the first half. Maybe that cost us too much on the points difference which has cost us our 4th spot. Also Radio Yorkshire seemed to suggest there were a few questionable decisions.

As I see it now I think the semi finals will be Cas v Saints and Leeds v Hull. I just can't see us getting there in the final four after another 7 rounds. Having said that it has still been a fabulous season and another of over achievement. Just a shame we didn't get the extra home fixture to help the club coffers.

Shambolic from trying to get in with only 2 turnstiles open on Doncaster rd to the complete team performance or should I say lack of it. The players have cost you a few grand today Mr Carter with dropping down to 5th

FFS the big game mentality bloody nil

Dont know what to say.
We were 2nd best in every department and to a man, Saints were better than us today.
Yes' there were some awful decisions but, our ability to get to the last play and execute something positive was the difference between the 2 teams.

Our pack were no match for Saints, our halves were 2nd best and they cut possession to the flanks, which nullified any thereat from either BJB or MCB.

We have to dust ourselves down and go again in 2 weeks.

Level points with Salford, who take 4th spot, so, everything still very much to play for but, today was disappointing.

So so predictable. Kicked to death on the last tackles again. Very reminiscent of the Leeds home game. Remember that one Scott?

Wish this rain would have started a couple of hours ago would certainly have slowed play down a bit. Disappointed with today but if somebody would have said to me at the start of the season we would be in 5th at this stage I would have been thrilled. Can't fault the teams commitment and performances this season

we messed up but I quite like our fixtures. Lynn was horrendous today heart size of a fart. Sts were excellent tho

Very disappointed with that perforfance to be honest.

Very flat all round given the significance of the result. It had been built up by the club, only to get a performance like this.

Yet another game where the last tackle kicks were abysmal.Agree a kick is only as good as the chase but when we dont kick into space that cliche becomes irellevant. I will give Williams some praise, as I felt he was continually probing and asking questions of their defence near the line.

We also missed far too many tackles giving them far tok many metres.

Wilzay was spot on about it not been a goid advert to encourage the stay aways to come back.

People can perform their own post mortems on our performance to day but you have to hand it to the Saints they were better in every department. If they continue like that throughout the play offs I can easily see them in the Grand Final.

I agree.
We made some mistakes and a couple of decisions went against us but in the end Sts were better than us. No shame in that.
I thought the young scrum half had a blinder.
