Or maybe not!!!

Thought the energy, attitude and commitment was better than of late, but it feels like a missed opportunity to grab a rare win and it's unlikely we will get too many more as the season progresses.

Even when the effort is there our glaring lack of quality is a handicap which will be difficult to overcome. Onto Huddersfield who don't look to be in great shape either, so should be another humdinger!!!

Effort wise, far better tonight. Obviously confidence wise, probably cost us that game.

Fair play to Cas though, probably just slightly the better team overall.

Hopefully we can build on the way we finished the game and try and find a bit of confidence from that. If we can, we may just be able to escape the wooden spoon.

Danny has been the ultimate professional but he’s finished, no coincidence last twenty minutes we looked miles better. Errors and penalties cost us as usual as well as bombed tries.

Don’t believe ‘building momentum for next season’ is an actual thing.

This season is a complete write off, our worse in 20+ years. We’ll be a different side next year, I genuinely believe that. I honestly think some of our players almost know they won’t be kept on or won’t be here, plenty going through the motions.

They're clearly just trying to get Houghton to second in the all time appearances list.

that was pretty depressing stuff for 60 minutes, 5 drives and a kick every set nearly.......last 15-20 minutes, throw the ball around and we actually looked threatening, as posted above, once Houghton went off we looked quicker, thanks for the efforts and memories Danny, but maybe time to call it a day early?

Id rather see us play the last 15-20 minutes from the start, give us some glimmer of hope, we just dont have the muscle to go up the middle, even against teams like Cas/London

And rushing and appointing the wrong man would have been worse. I'm sure if someone who fits the bill was available now wed have signed him up. Do you think the club don't want to appoint a coach now? Do you think they want us to be as bad as awe are?

He will still be first on Grix"s team sheet for next week
Personally dont think the coach dare drop him

Anyone is better than Grix evidently

Gotta start with Smith at 9 next week and Balmforth, or even give Hodgson a shot, on the bench.
Coaching staff keep talking about Balmforth having things to work on, and fair enough I'm sure he does, but christ if none of them can see that Houghton ruins our attack more than helps it.
If rather see Balmforth making mistakes but learning from it than Houghton getting picked every week because of sentiment and watching us play at a snails pace.
I know we are short of leaders this year but making Houghton captain was a ridiculous move.

Jebson doesn't seem toget much game time. Must only have played 20 minutes max again tonight. But defensively he is very good. Doesn't ever seem to miss a tackle.

Houghton is looking every bit like a guy who has played 450 games in the middle of the pitch

I thought he showed up well. Looking g for the ball and supporting well. Was a it unlucky when Trueman threw the ball at him a couple of metres out

We’ve got to part ways with grix. Two of the worst sides in the league and been beaten by both. Give it to Ellis and Cummings until the end of the year. We can’t carry on with mediocrity and him be here next year.
