Sounds like a rubbish game in rubbish conditions with a rubbish ref! Doesn't sound like Cas are up for it as much as Saints.

0-8 halftime

.....hope we don't think we can "cruise" through the Super 8's.

[InTheKnow]

We seem to be trying but can't break them down. Their try came from poor defence. Apart from that nothing separates the 2 teams. Understand why we didn't go for 2 twice when 8-0down but 2 easy kicks would have made it 8-4 at half time which would have been a little better.

Saints defence good but we seem lacking ideas. Saints not shown much in attack

Easy two points in front of sticks everytime for me, worked for Leeds for a lot of years

[InTheKnow]

Definitely.

That would have made it 8-6 with a 3rd easy kick from the penalty.

[InTheKnow]

8-6 anyway thanks to Milner first dummy half run for a long time!!!
