Agree with that, an excellent summary of the game. What's been bothering me recently is the use of O'Loughlinn in the backs. Surely he has proved over the years that he isn't suited to that job. I would have thought that it would have been better to use Flanagan, who has played there plenty of times in the reserves and has done well. As well as that it is leaving us even lighter in the pack with Flanagan there and we have also lost one of our best tacklers in the middle of the park when we have been under the cosh from opposition packs.

Although Flanagan has played well I think he has struggled to make an impression in the middle but has been quite useful when he has drifted wide. Surely this would be a cue to move O'Loughlin back to loose forward and free Flanagan to use his extra speed in the backs?

Last time I checked I'm entitled to an opinion on a game of rugby...

There is absolutely no way Castleford would have beaten rovers playing like that last night, could say you're being disrespectful for saying that!

And I like your comment "take Leed's performance out of the equation, and Saint's," so that just leaves one other winning team who could have played better than you lol??!! You might as well have said take Catalans performance out of the equation and say Wigan was the best team all weekend lol

However, I do agree that McGoldrick was/is pants, and didn't do anything to help his side win the game.

End of the day, I was making an analysis on the game.

Hope to see you at craven park on saturday

I didn't say you weren't entitled to an opinion, just find it slightly off to slate both teams quite so badly, when you hardly set the world on fire against Leeds. You were pretty damn dire against Leeds, and you can play far far better than that - hence saying Cas against your performance and not Cas against you overall.

Oh and I said arguably saints performance, as they didn't play anything like to their ability either, and have been really struggling to put points on the board.

I was only being honest, or my perception of the game anyway.

Think our game with Leeds would have been closer had we had the likes of Briscoe, Murrel, Galea, Webster, Cockayne playing. Not blaming injuries for the defeat cos I think Leeds gave a lesson in how to keep the ball alive, something which we did very little of in that game.

I just thought the wigan/cas game was very slow, and if Wigan were that better how they managed to only score three tries, one which was a 50/50 call on the video ref, and to end up having to cling on. That was all I was saying, wasn't saying anything about rovers playing good or bad against leeds.

It just came across to me wrong that's all mate, appologies for taking it the wrong way. I think KR are a good tough side, and this just highlights how tough play-off rugby can be in having to deal with injuries, particularly when you're still trying to gain experience and build up a bigger more robust squad.

I think Cas might have looked worse in attack due to the excellent defence by Wigan in the first 60 minutes, if we'd not been as sharp defensively they would have put a few past us as their line speed and speed of the play the ball were excellent in spells.

Ah no worries.

Save your arguing for when we beat ya on saturday lol

Regarding squad size though, rovers for next year at extremely light in the forwards so that is a worry of ours :S
