They didn't really show a replay but didn't the ball come off a Cas man for the intercept?

Efforts there from everyone but the confidence is well and truly shot . We ain’t getting any luck either which seems to happen when your down . Our last tackle plays (when we get to them ) are woeful. That said couple of tries early on an the game swings

Yes , shentons head but Eden was behind him so no accidental offside. I thought the same at full speed .

Can't argue with that been unlucky. effort is there but we really do look low on confidence which idbt surprising. Still making too many errors to put ourselves under pressure but again not surprised due to the above. Would like us to move up quicker in defence instead of hanging back and waiting. Would like to see Houghton make way to give Litten a run out. Just don't have the physical presence with the number of senior players out. We are definitely shot

Good crowd from cas,pity hardly any from hull,maybe travelling on a friday night is too much for them.

At least you aint gonna conceed 80 so your showing improvement.

Great try. A lovely move.

Yep, support players queuing up.

Carlos scores from a Shaul pass !!!!!

Lot better this half.

Good man Hakim.

How could Hewer possibly think that should be sent up as a try when McShane quite clearly kicked from behind Watts. Should never have even needed sending up.

Actually played some good off the cuff rugby second half (I didn't see any of the 1st so can't comment).
Made plenty of good opportunities we were probably just lacking better strike players like Kelly, Connor, Griffin been on the end to finish it off.

Some positives to take from that. Thought Litten's energy really helped and some much better individual performances. If we could get Kelly, Connor and Miloudi as off-the-cuff talent shoe-horned in there with Sneyd back in the halves and Westerman at loose that would certainly help creativity. Carlos very good tonight. Can't fault the effort.

The main difference was we kept some defensive shape.Jamie Shaul looked full of energy tonight.
Yes better effort from the team but lets not forget Castleford never had to get out of second gear

I think I saw more offloads tonight than the past 3 years.



I quite enjoyed that second half, pulled some decent moves.

Much better performance which is the first step.

Like the look of Scott, only 18, looks the most likely out of the youngsters

I wouldn't expect them to have to given our relative league positions, form and possibly absence of key players. Certainly a step forward tonight. Youngsters did a good job. Main concern for me remains the front row, although Masi stood up we need to sign a prop.

I wouldn't have expected to win that game given the comparative squads even if we'd gone into the game in banging form.

If Adam Pearson needed any reminder why we need to have this squad overhauled he only had to look at the attendance tonight.
Never 10000 in the ground more like 7000

Much improved and a good effort, didn't expect to win, with our confidence so low and injuries but generally a good dig and some nice attacking play in the 2nd half.

I think we have 3 really good youngster who given time and gametime will develop into good SL players in Scott, Lane and Litten.

It's criminal that Mouldi hasn't played more and the likes of Abdul and Harris have been picked over him.

I'd have him starting on the wing in front of Talanoa next season

Doesn't need an ovethaul, just a couple of signings, get players fit and play more attacking rugby

Agreed, I'd say 2 props and a line breaking back rower. Put Kelly, Sneyd and Connor into the backs, Bowden, Mini and Westerman into the pack and 2-3 additions as above, things would be looking a lot better.

Thought the team had a go tonight,the French lad brought enthusiasm,Scott got better as the game went on and Litten certainly looks as though we should play him next time.

To be fair we’re in wretched form, , three quarters of the team are out, we’ve come off the back of a record defeat (again), and the games on Sky. Can’t expect the crowd to be big tonight.

Most other Super League clubs would love our crowds on a bad day.
