I'm not enjoying this.
They look frustrated.

Need a spark from half back and it isn't there.

Not had much of a foot hold in the game. However the first try came from a Cas knock on - Clare tried knocking it back and it went forward, looked liked a MCB knock on but don't think it was looking at replay. Their last try came from a cheeky ball steel against Fifita which got given a knock on, after we got given a pen for a ball steel the play before. Cas playing the ref with McMeeken rightly getting penalised on their own line for trying to milk a pen

To be fair the forwards are not laying the platform. Fifita not having the best game and the others have nothing. Cas quicker, stronger and more enthusiastic. Hope I'm wrong but I can't see much changing in the second half.

Blaming the ref brigade.

I wonder if he's bumped into Gronk?

No ref blaming getting beat on the ref. But that pen against lynne.. Come on ffs

Alright lads. Here's what we're not gonna do, roll over as easily as we did in the first half.

Seriously we've had two penalties for being in the ruck when they are holding us there.
That is a really poor rule.

Cas are better than us. It's not the ref beating us but when you are not playing well those decisions really matter.

Re: Cas : Thu Apr 18, 2019 8:07 pm  

It is poop, Lyne can't do anything there. How does he clear the ruck when he's pinned down.

Irrelevant in this game as we are clearly second best but as a whole it needs a rethink.

The last 10 min has been much better
