| Connor is a very very good player. Grix being out could be really good for you and Connor.

| Connor is definitely a full back! Better than Grix in my opinion so he should stay there!

| Yep, better full back than centre. His half back skills are wasted at centre for me.

| Great game for the neutral but not so much as a fan of either side. So frustrating.
For ourselves, we just can't seem to control or respect possession. Too many mistakes as a result of silly play or from being too flamboyant with the ball. That second half spell blew you away and perhaps gave us too much of an advantage.
Thought we'd thrown it away but twice in two weeks we've been saved by a decision going our way. If the game had not been televised the ref would have gave Broughton's try.
What puzzled me - not sure about you guys - is why you went for a long kick off with 11 mins remaining and only 8 points behind.
Then with 10 seconds remaining you went for a short kick off with the game lost and 14 behind. Silly?

| Last week i was angry with our performance this week simply frustrated......why have we, after 20 games or whatever still not learnt from the mistakes we were making in games 2,3,4 etc...eg:
not to try and score on every tackle....build pressure !
constantly kicking the ball straight into oppositions hands allowing them time and space to run.
ambling up to the defensive line or standing still and letting them come to us, allowing opposition forwards time to build up a head of steam therefore our attempts to grab their shoulders, which seems to be our way of trying to tackle, are next to useless meaning they simply crash through.
Not fighting for a quick play the ball, every team does it to us, we just lay there !!
Giving away the same stupid penalties week after week for the same thing, tackling in the air is one we're particularly guilty of.
Cas are a good team but lets remember we were top of the league last year and people saying they're happy with that.....we should be performing to a standard where we are disappointed at any defeat not coming away happy cos we scored 30 points, or didnt lose by 50 etc. Maybe it's just me but i was not happy with that on Friday i thought we were poor collectively again but i got shot down for saying it because there was more 'effort' this week.
10 years ago i would have accepted losing heavily with 'effort' but we should not be accepting it these days, we know we are better than that and should have higher expectations from a team who we all expected to kick on from last year.
BTW i'm taking nothing away from Cas who, under Powell, have become a very good team !!

a lot of things we are doing at the moment are silly, we seem to have forgotten to do the basics right and seem to want to do the flashy stuff without doing the basics first.

| I don't think we were very good at all, and if that was "better from Cudjoe" how badly has he been?
We were poor for long periods, the first 20 minutes of the game I don't think either side did much to score, you capitalised on a carney error with a soft try, and then an interception, Sneyd's kick return although a good try was one lapse in concentration - It was a poor start to the game for me
The fortunate try before half time changed the game, We weren't at our best, but we were able to make hay down Cudjoe's side with Shenton - Cudjoe made shenton look like Greg Inglis!
We will have to be better than that, 5 poor weeks now from us, but we are building our performance slowly for the end of the season
For your guys, everytime I see Connor i rate him, looks a star in the making, and Mullally was a handful. Not a game either coach will be happy with, but it was 2 points
