Tell ya what. The warning signs have been there for a while. Teams have worked us out and nullified our attack and now we have nothing. We may win LLS but I'm not confident of owt else unless we can create more. Very poor tonight. Majority of possession and did nowt with it

Cas weren't allowed to win that game.

Wilkin should have been sent off for that assault on Hitchcox, clear try wrongly disallowed, Saints "great" defence was go back 6 of the required 10m and concede what 8? Penalties inside their 10 and somehow not get anyone put in the bin.

The RFL simply do not want the 8s wrapping up within 3 weeks, expect more of this garbage.

You could see they didn't have any room to get anything going, like Hull in the cup it was a case of getting out done by a team daring the ref to give a penalty every play.

It's the only effective way of beating Cas. Credit to Saints for making the tackles though, they still need to be made... Unlike Cas who were poor in defence tonight.

Sorry don't agree sherriff. We had no end of back to back sets and never looked like scoring. Yeah I thought saints dominated the ruck borderline legally but we were very poor. Hull and wakie almost found us out. Well saints just did

Well done saints. Fair play. Outplayed us in every area.

Have to take everyone's word for it that 'now we have nothing '
Mind you the Saints fan who just texted me said we would have beaten most teams tonight
Radio Leeds said there wer a lot of positives too and that we just met a team who really needed it and had all 17 playing at the top of there game
Anyway as I say I'll have to take your word we now have nothing
