It was a meaningless dead rubber that Cas would always want to win more than us, not the end of the world. The fact of the matter is beating Cas doesn't matter to the club anymore.

It wasn't that bad actually. We turned up expecting far worse I'm sure. Too many injuries to the guys during the game early doors didn't help matters. Some nice moments to cheer.
My only real peeve was stupid Randell giving away the needless lifting penalty on the 5th tackle and getting sin binned.

Although Huby did do some big minutes last night he did appear to miss a few tackles in the first half. I do like Huby, but just not quite seeing the same player we had last year. Maybe still not quite fully fit from his injury last year.

I do agree yo some extent, the earlier poster saying we need to spend a little more to strengthen, but that isnt easy with club budgets, though maybe the improvement arent too drastic.

Half back situation definately needs sorting, and would maybe look at the full back. One position i would also address is prop, OK, we have Fifita, England and Pauli, but i just think those back ups need to be better

I couldn't understand why Hewer didn't go to the screen for the BJB non try. It only takes a few seconds.

That's just rubbish.
We literally played with half a pack of forwards, missing Fifita, England & Hirst.
A late withdrawal of Miller, plus, losing Grix & Batch in the first halt and this against a very good Cas outfit.

What did you think would happen ?

To suggest that the club and players aren't bothered about beating Cas is just laughable or sad, i'm not sure which.

Thanks but no thanks

I like Huby and I am genuinely shocked he never got a chance at international level. He does seem to be carrying a touch extra timber now which seems to have slowed his passing game down a bit. It used to be quick and sharp. I know he is getting on a touch but it hasn't stopped Graham still doing it. I would say Huby's offloading game was equal to if not better than Grahams too

Exactly my point earlier in the thread!

The last three or four seasons beg to differ, I don't think we even had this bad a run against Huddersfield.

They are the only team weve not beaten for nigh on three years. Says a lot really. We just can't seem to cope with their structures both attack and defence.

To be fair Khlav, when Cas are running hot no one seems to be able to handle them.
