Too little, too late.

For me, we lost the game in the first half by playing panic rugby. Sherwin had a stinker and he must have thrown 5/6 shocking passes that either went behind all players or into the face/back of a team mate.

At the end of the day, you can't give a team like Wigan an 18 point start and expect to get away with it.

Not enough urgency shown in the second half considering we knew it was knockout rugby and we were chasing the amount of points we were.

Why we didn't put up more high bombs I have no idea considering it worked the one time we did put one up. We certainly should have put a kick up in the last few seconds.

And why on earth was Sargent putting a kick in on the 3rd tackle?

A disappointing end to the season in that I think we are better than Wigan and could have won today if we'd played the game and not the occasion.

However, overall I've been chuffed with how far we've come and look forward to next season when maybe we can take it up another level.

That's enough of my ramblings, it's been a long day.

Welcome to the club, just like us you played for all of 20 mins and could still have got a result.
Next week will be tougher cos both Wigan and Catalans were very beatable this weekend.
Also cannot see why you keep one of the games best footy players in Westerman stuck out in the centres when it's screaming for him in the middle of the park.
Anyway Happy Christmas look forward to next years games.

You do know it's mad monday tomorrow for the players....maybe your right the work does starts tomorrow

It does for our esteemed CEO, the coach and the rest of the backroom staff associated with Castleford Tigers. For the players, it's their time to relax and rest up for a few weeks, which they absolutely deserve.

Our completion rate must've been in single figures, we put far too much ball down and in turn put ourselves under far too much pressure at times.

I certainly think it was a case of nerves early on, but had Owen managed to score when he broke through, that may have settled everything down, but it wasn't to be.

When we actually started to play a bit in the second half, we took too many wrong options and sometimes looked ineffective in attack. Wigan were allowed to slow the game down quite a bit though, and as a result were able to get their line set and (with their line speed) snuff out our attack.

One positive for me was that our defence was pretty brutal and it's a shame it hasn't been as effective all season. Sure the game was rough, but they gave as good as they got; although (for whatever reason) our guys were frustrated at times.

Their points generally came from our mistakes and for that reason the best team won - they simply capitalised on our errors and punished us.

I think Sherwin may have been carrying an injury tonight, he was very poor at times. Losing Chase was a massive blow and McGoldrick was disappointing.

The best player on our team was Owen, closely followed by Huby and Shenton. All had great games IMO.
