| Many posters mentioned this on the Wakey v Saints post.
Just feel we need to not panic but improve our game management to recognise when it is important to drop the goal.
After the superb recovery from 20 6 down we found ourselves leading 26 20. At that point we had opportunities to stretch the lead to 7.
A number of Saints fans on their Redvee site have expressed surprise that we didn't go for a drop goal then.
I think that one of the strengths of Cas is their ability to stretch a lead by the drop goal attempt and Gale is a master at this.
With hindsight I think that had we stretched the lead to 27 20 last night, we might have been celebrating a massive double over the league leaders.
Nevertheless it was a gutsy performance and the players should be holding their heads up high and kick on from here into the qualifiers.

| Anyone who equates a DG with 20s of FIRST HALF remaining with a DG mid way through the 2nd half really does not understand rugby league

What is the point of this comment? What I did notice is that Catalan when 6 points up DID go for the one pointer and look seemingly at the effect it did have...

| Have to agree Adam.
A team, going into the final quarter who then goes 2 scores ahead, can work wonders for confidence, and the opposite for those behind, especially if they haven't won too often lately
At 24-18, I felt we were still in it. As soon as that one pointer went over, it was as if the players heads went.
Although we were Poor, for me it was the game breaker
