Take the kicking duties away from Smith.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:40 pm  

First time we’ve asserted a level of control on a game for months…on one of the hardest places on the league to do so. There’s very much a feeling of Wane about this.

Right edge has been very solid, with Halsall contributing well to that (Bibby excellent). Smithies best game in ages. Bateman doing his thing quietly which is pleasing.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:44 pm  

Bibby has been outstanding I think.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:46 pm  

A bit of confidence in what we’re doing makes all the difference. By no means panic over, and by no means whatsoever proving of Lam’s worthiness.

Left to right shift, right to left shift, try. Made that look easy.

That knock on against there was absolute rubbish when Watts is looking to offload. Childs has been poor for us in this game. Luckily it’s not looking like it will need to be used for an excuse.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:46 pm  

Yes, Halsall and Bibby both very good.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:50 pm  

Why is Shorrocks back on? He is abysmal at dummy half.

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:55 pm  

You know what, despite my earlier comment I’m quite happy with this performance. We’ve just asserted ourselves and took advantage of Cas who have been extremely poor, the bulk of that blame has to lie with Richardson who has been awful.

Singleton has been outstanding IMO. Really led the pack and made hard yards and been strong in D. Zak has been brilliant too.

Still evident Smith is struggling with confidence. That ball for Gildart was indicative of what he can do but we don’t see it often enough.

Lam coach of the year

Re: Cas (A) : Mon Aug 30, 2021 5:56 pm  

We’ve gone about our business very quietly, yet very well today. Yes, Cas have been poor, but you can only lick what’s in front of you.

Bullock embarrassing…could’ve & would have given Cas a leg up in this game on another day.

Lam baffling with the O’Neill selection & rotation. Surely the type of game to keep him on on to grow confidence in a dominant performance. The bloke seems clueless.
