Nothing on Grix dropping the bomb which led to Millington's try or Fafita's penalty which led to Gale's drop goal?

Numerous incidents contributed to our loss, you can't just pin point Joe!

Exactly
Not taking the 2 at 8-0 when we had literally just taken the 2 a minute earlier in the same position. I had a horrid feeling we'd lose by 2. One is even more galling!
Yes Joe's knock on
High tackle at 24-18
Total lack of organisation at kick off after we scored
At least 2 or 3 more I forget
But come on, Cas are, I hate to say it, a fabulous team. Keeeping with them was an awesome effort and shows how good we now are too. But fatigue sets in when you are on 100% for 80. And then cometh the errors

Arundel costly error tonight. Luckiest player to get another deal.
His easy catch cost us the game tonight that got Tigers the role on. Can't afford it that's the difference between top 4 and teams rolling away each week. He would not get in any other super league side. Lucky man. If Annakin can't get a deal how can he. With out wingers a class centre they would score ,4 a game

Thanks for another uneducated post

We need to learn how to react to a blow in a game though. We had been totally calm and in control of the game for 40 mins. One little error and a try and, as we have done before, we collapsed for 15 minutes. It's hard I know but we have to look at why we do this.

Re: Arundel costly error : Fri Jul 07, 2017 8:53 am  

I personally think it's ridiculous to pin the loss on Joe.

Cas went out n at half time, thoroughly embarrassed. There was always going to be a response. We undoubtedly had a plan to counter that response but it simply didn't work. Cas did what Cas do, a quick flurry of scores and it knocked the stuffing out of us.

The defending we made Cas do in the first half would have tired out any normal team. After that we just st need to be smart, end the sets properly with a pressure play or a touch finder.

When you go into a lead like that, you've every right to think you can keep doing it. We just need to be smarter that's all.

Re: Arundel costly error : Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:08 am  

It's a great post as it was a easy pass with nobody 10 yard near him that forced all the pressure back on to us they scored from that and then got a roll on.
He's a below average centre we can do far better

Re: Arundel costly error : Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:22 am  

On a slightly lighter note, how good was Annakins chase after that intercept.
With that kind of pace and his strength, can we utilise him better out wide instead of using him up the middle, like Michael Jackson was used back in the late 80's.

Re: Arundel costly error : Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:24 am  

From a cas point of view I thought arundel was decent last night he defended our left edge as well as any centre I've seen this season and also stole the ball 1 on 1 that set up fifitas try.so to blame him for one dropped ball 90m from his own line is harsh even tho it was a momentum changer

Re: Arundel costly error : Fri Jul 07, 2017 9:29 am  

Agree about Annakin. With his pace and mobility needs to be running out wide .

Not much left to say really, you've just about covered it all on here and the virtual terrace
