| It all seems like a bit of a whine, just for the sake of whining.
It's an absolute certainty we have a dedicated 1 point kicker already primed for the advent of a situation where a DG is not actually just a poor return play.

| Quote: RealSteel89 "IMHO we don't kick enough drop goals and that is why when we need one in a pressure game, like Hull away last year we end up missing them. Friday night would have been a perfect opportunity to not only improve our position in the game, but also practice setting up for a drop goal and kicking one for once.
Luke Gale has kicked a number of drop goals this year most of them before half time. This means in future when it comes to kicking one in a pressure situation Cas will have practiced more than any other team in a game situation and will execute it better.'" then if that's the case then when also should look at the two when we get a penalty

It all depends on the context and timing of the game. If it's Widnes at Home then you can understand it if you're 12 points up.
If it's Saints away and you know you're not comfortable then you'd consider it.

You hit the nail on the head there Adam, although it doesn't really matter who your playing it all depends on the context and timing of the game, we were well on top having scored 20 unanswered points, the confidence in the team was there for all to see surely while in that position and also in that position attacking wise the positive thing to do is to exploit our momentum and their inability to cope with us.

| I agree.
The decision to make them drop out again, or in fact go for a try was not a bad one, it just didn't work.
It's easy to say a 1 pointer was better in hindsight but at the time, keeping the pressure on was the better call in my opinion. Just need to be better at it.

| The disappointing part of it was not Woods kick or that they ran eighty or so metres' with the ball off his kick, but the fact that four of them did the hard bit chased back caught up with the centre who had to pass the ball to the winger who then with ease zig zaged through the lot of them, that more than woody's kick cost us the game along with Tai's double movement try.

Agree - I was livid at that, four seemed to all have got back and across to cut Grace off, then he just waltzed through them.
Anyway back on topic
Danny Brough just took the 1 in this game with Hull. see if its the difference

Honestly I thought Brough took that drop goal to reduce that massive points against they have

| 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
