the usual leeds arrogance yet again, then they wonder why all the other fans sing we all hate leeds and we hate rhinos. first try came from a penalty, second cas mistake, third try from a penalty, fourth try from a penalty a cheating penalty by ablett throwing himself on the floor, then would you believe rangi chase gets his head knocked off loses the ball, leeds go down the flank one or two forward passes involved as per usual, kick across field then the error for the penalty. leeds win the points but there is not one true supporter can say that they deserved to win. not a bad performance from a team who had a very hard cup game days before and lacked five players through injury for both games. if the excuses are good enough for the whinos, its good enough for the tigers.

Correct. They annoyed me though going on about luck. The only may luck played a part is in the fact that they didn't get trounced.

indeed they talk about luck through gritted teeth but fail to mention brent webb getting penalised for playing the ball(and there was nothing in it)!! if thats not getting some luck i dont know what is

not to mention burderus no try!! where the vr said buderus had knocked on?? so a scrum to cas!! looked like downward pressure to me!!

plus they came out well on top of the pen count

leeds also played with 15, 2 of which were hookers, and had a scrum half and a winger out of the game.

but no the cas fans would have you believe it all went leeds way!! the crap i heard coming out of the ground is just what i would expect!! typical small town mentality

lucky when webb did the voluntary tackle, lucky when dixon got took out in the air catching the ball, lucky when ablett cheated for the penalty to mention a few, you lot must feel like a load of dick turpins, robbing scum.

I refer you back to my previous statement about the wonders of 2012 when we have a Castleford free SL.

ahhh a text book example of a blinkered " i cant see past my nose" attitude. try watching the game as a whole not just your own team.

if your the defender you can contest the ball and the player in the air thems the rules learn em!! its only the attcking players who cant tackle in the air.

the webb thing happens at least once a set in every game. talk about perdantic reffing.

and when are people gonna learn all teams in pro sport bend the will of the rules to the limit to gain the advantage

you speak as if cas have some kind of moral high ground and dont take part in bending the rules to their advantage.

this again just confirms a blinkered view!!

learn the rules, know the game, try to keep an open mind, and for god sake try to curb your bitterness towards leeds it verges on the obsessive

One word 'rubbish'. We must be the luckiest team in the world according to you. But I suppose you believing that gives you the mind thought that you were robbed and should have won.

Cas were just as 'lucky' with the conditions. Near mentioned the blatant knock on by Feather in front of his own sticks 10 yards out did you? or maybe you didnt see that one through those rose tinted specs.

Scum? Little keyboard hero are we?????

That rule only applies in the NRL

Wot about luck when maguire kicked it, sione poked his foot out, could have gone anywhere..... but no straight into maguires hands!!

not true

Wow!, and I thought the Loiners accused us of seeing this game as a cup final



The comments on here are a right old laugh, you lot were very fortunate to get a win against an injury decimated Cas team, simple as that. Its quite clear to see from this season that you are a team on the slide, quite the opposite of us, Cas, who are clearly on the Up as a team and as a club.

Maybe thats why you were all acting like you'd won the cup, and you're still at it on here



Quite a contrast to the measured response by us Cas fans that realised we were quite fortunate to win in the manner we did against Fax.last week Its no wonder Loiners are a very unpopular bunch in the RL world

BULL... top of the table doesn't seem a slide to me. We never control the league. We just up our game when it matters, like the GF. That's the final game of the season. Just thought i'd make it clear as you never have and never will see one.

[uEven more BULL... you'll collapse. You know you will. And to be honest, when you're at rock bottom, the only was is up isn't it.[/u

And as for an injury decimated side, we played the game with half the number of substitute players as you did so you can't pull that one.

leeds have played poor all season. we have not played well for 80 mins yet we are 3rd in the table. we have the best defence in the league. one of our big signings didnt even get on the plane! and we were going to bring in a centre but the club decided to go with the kids, so we are going ok.

cas appear to be going backwards right now. only just got a win against a nl1 team, got totally mullered a few times this year too and are only just holding on to a play off spot.

your defence is like a tea bag!! defence wins titles and your is shocking.

did im mention ours is the best!

a real indication of how your club is going is your 2 play makers are imports(6,7). not a good sign at all

having read some bitter views from both sides my points are,

both teams had there fair share of good and bad luck last night and both sides had reasons to moan about ian smith.

it was a great game and a draw would have been fair. however we made a good break, there was no knock on or forward pass, and and sherwin knocked on.unfortunate for him as he had a good game otherwise.
cas had more of the ball and were better going forward. leeds defence was supurb though and when we did manage to get forward we looked liked scoring.

all in all a great game.we sneaked the win,which i'm glad about obviously but good luck for the rest of the season(apart from the return game

)

Well done



I do hope the rest of your chums coming on our board spouting drivel take note. Thats a good balanced comment, didn't hurt at all did it

Fair play for giving the kids a go. I can't really defend the indefensible, our defence is shocking---does that sentence make sense





Hey, we may not have the halves but we've got quality home grown players in every other position, so not so bad eh

Did anyone take up his offer to meet for a fight.

Don't know why Cas fans are blaming the referee. He penalised Leeds for laying on but let Cas lay on ever so slightly longer.

Doesn't really matter though. Cas probably wont play better than that this season and they still couldnt beat a seriously out of sorts Leeds side.

Leeds first 3 tries were while the rain was at its worst.

Seen Cas play better then that already this season, so that point is nul & void straight away.

Even if it was an "out of sorts Leeds team" how about Cas? it's not like they were missing: Owen, Huby, Hudson, Widders, Netherton & losing McGoldrick early on put Cas at a massive disadvantage, and them 6 missing are a bigger loss then Donald & Burrow.

very true and better will come

sgtwilko,

buderus was offside when he "knocked on" for the rhinos disallowed try and so cas should have been awarded a penalty. thaler gave that decision so I can't really complain about ian smith on that one

overall was gutted with the loss but the boys battled well in shocking conditions. yes the penalty count was well in our favour but deservedly imo. cas did get away with some decisions as well but it was the key decisions (dixon tackled in air etc) that didn't go our way that could have tipped the balance in our favour.

The main difference though was that the Rhinos defence was very good and with the amount of possesion and field position that we had we failed to break it down enough times.

Still optimitic that we can maintain a playoff place til the end of the season though.

The game is over and done with. Cas and Leeds don't meet again until 14th August. Shall we all let the bitching from both sides sto now as it isn't going to do any good ?

Please............


Thank you.

what a load of HYPOCRITES the rhinos people trying to tell us about overseas players. all they have done for the last 30-40 years is try to sign every best aussie or new zealander going, got bailed out by mr caddick from airedale in castleford and eventually in came the youth policy which as worked out quite well so far not forgetting about the likes of webb, donald, buderus, leuluai, and a mr eastwood currently enjoying life with canterbury bulldogs.

Well said.
