Can'y help thinking that Kershaw would have been a far better prospect on the wing tonight, or Kay. That knock on by Lineham led to the start of our downfall. Why does Applegarth stick with him?

First half we were the best team except for about 5 minutes. That try chalk off was ridiculous and no way should griffin have been adjudged knock on before they score that try. I’d also say Vera was obstructed In that try in the first half but no video check. Typical. Also that second half forward pass try chalk off was a tough call. No way that’s called most weeks even if technically correct.
That said they were too clinical for us and wtf Dagger is on the bench especially if Lino isn’t even kicking, p*ss poor team selection, Dagger knocks over at least two of those and we are then right in the game and he’s been playing well no way should he be left out.
Aggggghhhhh

I was just about to post the same. you beat me to it.

Don’t think the two second rows were too bad with the ball either. We did seem to make decent meters forward, we just didn’t have too much clue what to do when we got into good ball, other than the chuck it to Griffin tactic.

I thought we were well on top at 8-6 but that dropped ball from Lineham just got Cas back into the game.

We blew our last chance to get back into the game when Whitbread's break came to nothing. I think he made a mistake running a line away from a supporting Ashurst then slinging a loose pass at Lino. I won't be watching a rerun to confirm it though.

Felt for Fifita who was head and shoulders our best man out there.

We made an average half back tonight, look like Nathan Cleary, and our headless chicken made yet another major contribution.

Our recent investment maybe signing players to imorove us, lets hope he's not afraid to show some players the door

Even bigger mystery, which bright spark gave him a three year contract

Sounds like the Cas is now firmly amongst the pigeons.

Bongser will get his coat!

Lino has to be one of the biggest dudds in this clubs history.

So poor.

Heard a rumour Dagger wasn’t fit so he didn’t play.

Even if he is in one leg Dagger has to play for the rest of the season.

Someone is telling you porkies. If that was the case he would not have been 18th man and taking part in the pre match warm up

Dagger was fit, just not selected. From the horses mouth.

I think all the recent contracts have been done with the aim of tying down some guys for the 2024 Championship. Maybe that's his/their level?

Agree 100%, who decided to extend his contract?

Does Applegarth just have a year's contract? If so then either sack or make him sell programs for the rest of the season. We clearly have some talent in this team yet week after week we churn out this e. Get rid of Lino too.

The thing that got me was Cas were down to 2 subs on the bench after half time, yet we used our 8 interchanges before them. Cas clearly wanted it more, you could see on the field, the score line. We are a shambles. I’d genuinely be happy to not see a fair few players wear the colours again as they are either not good enough or are not bothered.
