Last night i thought our kicking game full stop was non existant and when we did manage to get boot to ball the chase was not there to apply any pressure.

Cas are the first team this season to frustrate us and out muscle us and we panicked.Lets just hope its a minor blip as i am sure it is and now we can on another run of back to back wins.

A dissapointing result last night, but I have got dissagree with your point in bold. We scored two tries from kicks, and even though it was not a brilliant kicking performance, it was still far better than what we have been used to for the past 5-6 years.

In reply to the OP I thought Horne Thorman and Berrigan were poor in the last set. It was their collective responsibility to ensure we did the right things and none of them did.

One of these been from an absolute howler in the Cas defence which 9/10 times would not happen.so we wil have to agree to disagree.

If Tommy Lee was still on we'd have gone to our right and exploited the 5 on 2 overlap we had!!

tbh I think Thorman was screaming for the ball for a D/G right before berrigan kicked/threw it about 30 foot up in the air.

Was awful, total lack of composure, too many players wrong positions wrong options

One it got to play 3 we should have been thinking DG, our dumbness returned it would seem.

For me its all about attitude, I mentioned it during the week. The moment we went into a game had stopped doing the things we had been doing well then we would get beat. Arrogance, complacency, call it what you like but the attitude was not the same as in recent weeks and maybe 5 in a row wnet to the players heads.

We should have been looking right and seen the 5 on 2 we had. Agree about our dumbness though, first time this season, hope its the last. Didnt help that Berrigan and Thorman were shattered and Horne had just taken 2 smashes on his nose!

It seems the trait hith Hull, I dont know why they have that mentality that 5 wins on the trot is good enough. Obviosuly its a really good start, but the Saints and Leeds teams recently dont let it go to their heads, the job isnt done until they win a trophy and its sometimes a mentality I feel we lack, at the moment
