Yep. Didn't see TJ get one pass all night.

Thought Westerman was head and shoulders above anyone in our side in the first half but as the game progressed he seemed to lose interest, can't blame him.
Battye works best when he has a support player running with him, a bit like what Watts was getting tonight.
Kyle Wood offered nothing that Brad Walker couldn't do.
The ability to follow the player taking up the ball is non existent, summed up when Fifita offloaded in the tackle and no one was ready.
As has been said on another thread, Ashurst getting the ball stripped twice and the only time TJ got the ball was when he was helping out.
Cas were bad, we were worse.

I said same we had 5 mins while billy got dealt with the plsyers knew what time was left so thought we would come up with summet no letsjudt drive it in same at end 10 seconds left give it to tommy to drive through them shocking.i was stood east stand at the north side and when we attacked we where so flat and lini and miller didnt kniw what was happening.
There was only 1 sub made in first 25 mins and our forwards looked knackered why wasnt subs made earlier.we have one of best finishers in game but he gets no service we at time are cluless in attack.for me reece lynne kelepi and brad walker are the only players to out with any credit...i believe the wins v hudds and kr will end up been the worst results in a ling time.

We had better players than cas on field tonight on paper but they have a coach

Another 2 points thrown away - that was disgraceful end of story .

By our upcoming fixtures i see around a 6 - 8 loss streak coming .

is 6 points enough ?

How many ball steals did we suffer tonight? 5 or 6 ?

6 pts may be lol seehow we go in 2 week v salford think decisions need making if not good

We lost Cas weren't very good but got more help from the man in the middle than we did so please don't start bulling Powell up for that performance. Max made a crucial error which unfortunately turned out to be the difference. So let's not start the Chester bashing again. Cas got the rub of the green tonight on the pitch and also in the refs eyes. You could see it in Powell's face at the end most things went their way tonight don't think it was anything to do with his so called super coaching abilities.

Cas weren't very good? What does that make us then? Powell doesn't have to be a super coach but 15 on the trot against us is pretty damning don't you think? He outcoaches Chester every time. You can use the ref all you want and I agree we got some dodgy calls but the best team won and 4 tries to 2 sums it up. Quite simply we were awful - again!

So we lost because jowitt messed up and ref was unfair.....like i said we had better caibre of players on pitch more first teamers on pitch less injuries than the opposition......but if we lose with 4 or 5players out its due to those injuries for the reason why.we should of won tonight despite the ref and max shocking mistake but we didnt when miller dont play cc has said how can we win without our best player well where was trueman tonight.....it was only close cos richardson couldnt kick

Can just visualise the next zoom call.

“Did we really expect to beat Cas?”

What did he do to out coach us today?

He didn't have to do a lot did he? Our one man Rugby with no support made it easy for them. Our terrible last tackle plays made it easy for them. We have one of the best wingers in the league, we didn't create a single overlap for him, that made it easy for them. We kicked once to the corner for TJ it went out on the full, tried it on the other side, it went sideways. I could go on and on, our performance was poor again. Are Castleford a team of superstars? No, thought not. Is it a hoodoo? Nah I don't believe in such things. 15 in a row says Powell out coaches Chester every single time and this time we handed it to them on a plate.

Really disappointed with that effort.Once it became clear that Powell had got his team 'up for it',as he always does against us, there just seemed an inevitability about the result.Agree with Khlav that they were well coached and drilled as usual,and we've never found a way to counteract that, a plan B if you like,all the time Chester has coached us.Not having a dig as such, just stating how I see it.
On reflection I suppose what I'm saying is Chris Chester hasn't closed any of the coaching gap between himself and Powell since he's been here.Sad but true IMO.

Just seen your post Poptart 'what did he do to outcoach us'
I am trying not to be sarcastic, but I am wondering if you've asked the same question after each of the last 15 matches we've played Cas.
I'll admit I know little or nothing about coaching, but I would have thought 4 tries to 2 must prove something.

Might not have a choice. Next weeks is the England game so given the covid issues and injuries around our 3 squad members are likely to get the call up. Plus can see Kelepi and possibly big Dave in the combined nation squad. When you throw in Bill’s injury as well that could be half a dozen changes there. Saving grace is Wigan will also be missing a load.
