Is that why we've been missing a lot of goal kicks

Yes. I agree. Your posts are way down on quality and frequency Goose and appear to mirror the slump in our team's performances.

Sort yourself out. Beak up, feathers out. You're letting the side down, you Avian gormclops.

Aside from against Saints and Wigan at home last year, I cannot remember any of our current team putting in a stint of unremitting controlled and disciplined defensive and offensive intensity, effort and skill that every Widnes player put in tonight against Wigan.

Judging by that Widnes performance, it shows what can be done, but we have a long way to go to match it. A graphic example of how our fortunes have gone in opposite directions since the end of last season.

At the end I had to turn it off. Just angers me how one team can do so well and us...err..well just the opposite!
I really am chuffed for Widnes, and long may their results continue, they seem to be another Castleford this year, well coached, have a game plan, energy and good defending/attack. And all on a budget just like ours.
Just sickens me.

The thing is you say well coached but for the last 3 or 4 years Betts has been pretty much walking the sacking tight rope. Is it good coaching that just took time or has he just got lucky.
