Is it hell forward, nowhere near, you do talk rubbish through your Wigan tinted glasses, I don't support Saints. Typical Hicks as a touch judge, wants to be involved, and gets things wrong. Child had a good game and is improving massively.

Regardless of it was forward or not, we were well stuffed and look lethargic. Here's hoping we can recover for next week.

Much prefer refs and their touch judges to give benefit of any doubt to the side defending when it comes to flat / forward passes. If more refs did this we would soon see teams making sure that they pass the ball backwards.

Not posted for a long time but after last night thought I'd share my thoughts.

Good solid start but never really troubled saints the whole game. Jon Wells summed it up at half time cas kick game was terrible, I think all but 2 kicks the whole game didn't go down the wingers or full backs throat.

We can complain about officials all night but end of day it's part and parcel of rugby league, some decisions go our way some don't - we gotta deal with it accept we were clearly 2nd best and prepare for next week.

I don't support either side & I called it forward right away. The players reactions show they knew it was. Child & his TJ's were very poor all night.

Has the CC Final loss & players moving on at season end broken the team ethic or whatever else was producing such great performances? Where has the team that won at Wigan gone?

IMO wrong on both counts..........Child had another poor game.......and the pass was nearly forward

i personally thought Child was a disgrace on the offsides especially the first 30 mins when Saints were virtually on Cas as the first receiver toook the ball , watch the game back and concentrate on that and you will be amazed how bad it was
