Full time Town 35 Cougars 18

IMO these two teams will contest the GF in a few weeks time

Workington scored 22 points from our kicking game, 3 attacking kicks and a goalline drop out returned for tries.

I've never seen anything like it in my 20 years of watching the game.

Our kicking game was dreadful, but credit to Workington, they are a solid unit and they capitalised spectacularly.

Our away form appears to be the problem. Unfortunately, I don't get to many away games so I can't say what the problem could be, but tactics and mentality are two that spring to mind instantly. Before anyone feels the need to pass comment, I don't get to many away games due to work commitments. If in some people's eyes that makes me an inferior fan then so be it. Other results didn't go our way today and I'm left feeling that unless we get a home draw in the play-off's we could struggle. I think JD has identified the away form as the problem and I suppose the proof of the pudding will be in how he turns it around.

That's RL mate, some days you get the breaks and others you don't. Town may have had a slice of luck but sometimes you make your own and Kaighan's second try from the move started on our own line was worth the admission money on its own.

I don't think luck came in to it today. Town took everything the Cougars threw at them and more and had the speed and guile to diffuse Keighley's attacks and turn them in to points.

The big difference was in the kicking games of JD and Town's Darren Holt who kept Cougars pushed back in their own half for most of the second half. JD's kicks ended up with Town scores!!!!!

I still think Cougars will be at the Grand Final, you just ran up against a team that wanted it more today.
