That’s the worst part for me, fans give the club every spare minute they have and miss events with friends for this absolute shambles.

Gutless

We just can't get up for derby games. It was the same against Leeds earlier on in the season.

It’s a continuation of the poor second half in the CC…. Out muscled out fought….

A new stadium won’t do jack to attract new fans playing with the team playing like that. We’ve gone from a promising season to another dead rubber within the space of a week.

Sadly your right,

I’ve defended the clubs lack of ambition in signings this season because I get it..

But that doesn’t excuse tonight, there simply is no excuse.

Some players are robbing money. It so reminds me of 2005 when we fell apart.

We are now yet again dependent on the promoted club being worse than us. How many times is that going to work. We can’t keep doing this.

Missing Miller big time nothing from our 6 tonight Hope Tupo ready to go on wing.so we can move.Kay to interchange hooker

Think kay deserves to be left out of any criticism tonight he put a shift in and tried

That incident towards the end when Lino played the ball and Hood was stood staring at the East stand just for hem to pick the ball up and put it over the line was the most embarrassing thing I've seen in 66 years of watching Wakefield Trinity. I'd give just about all of them their P45s and send 'em down the road after that debacle.

Does anyone know how many knock ons there were tonight?

Drop as many as possible and replace with the remnants of a thread bare squad….

Not criticising Kay, having a good season That's why I want him in the middle of the park.Hood was poor to night .Kay would \ could take a lot of pressure of him

That was one shocking performance today.

The only two players who stood out for me were Whitbread and Kay.

That’s two games with Gaskell/Lino combo and a big fat 0 try’s created or scored. They simply do not work together at all. The sooner Miller is back the better. I don’t think Gaskell is a bad player but he just doesn’t go with Lino. I’d stick Walker in next week at SO because it just worked a bit better.

Our forwards need to stop getting dominated right now because they’re just not winning the collisions.

The intensity in defence is non existant. We are standing flat waiting for the players to hit us and conceding 10 metres a tackle + post contact metres (some sets they made 60/70 yards!!!…. Surely Poching isn’t calling for those tactics. I’m contrast Cas charged up and met us restricting us to 10/20 yards only in a full set of 6!

Wigan will rip us a new one at this rate.

I’ve been a fan since a young lad in 96 but after today and seeing that I actually considered is it worth it. A few good games followed by the usual 6/7 game slump coming up. Starting to get fed up and want some success.

Does anyone know how many sets of six we completed tonight.

Kay will likely be back to 9 next week. Hood looks like he’s done his wrist in putting a hit on the Cas props. Can’t fault his intensity in defence but our 9 shouldn’t be the one making the heavy tackles on the props.

And So it goes on. Normal service has been resumed



5.5k for your cup final as well, nearly as embarrassing as the score

Was thinking the same driving home. They didn't look like a half back pairing last week or this week. They looked like two individuals. Lino and Miller actually look like they work together.

Exactly right but Poching seems to rate Gaskell but I can’t say I’ve been impressed. We simply can’t have another game with them two at halfbacks. As you say it’s predictable. Lino stays on the right, Gaskell stays on the left. There’s no link up an it’s all individual hope for the best. Rather see Walker play.

We really miss Batchelor too. The lad has been very strong in the middle for us this year.

I think we need some fresh faces for the Wigan game and give the likes of Eseh, Walker, Tanivalu (so Kay can go to 9), Shaw, Croft.

If we don’t spell a big number of the squad we will be crocked for KR game.

Fewer than the dumb ball steals. One on Castleford's 1st set had us on the back foot straight away. How dumb are the culprits???

Flat as a fart from minute 1 to minute 80.
It's as though the players had been forced to turn up against their will.

Our forwards looked low on energy and desire from the start and some of the mistakes were just criminal.

It reminded me of the now infamous "card school" game in London all those years ago but, this was a derby game against our local rivals.
Utterly depressing.

It would be interesting to know what our set completion was. It has to be the lowest of the season, probably by any side in the comp.

Shocking performance, really shocking

Not an enjoyable game tonight… but there’s another on Monday

Here’s hoping for a better day!

Looking back Lino and Gaskell were poor last night ,and not alone may I add ,but it’s the same old formula , what chance have they got of creating when our forwards are completely dominated from the word go . The same forwards that ripped into Wigan and dominated the opening period simply melted away last night ,and failed miserably to deal with the go forwards of Cas or their defence to be honest .There was no slow drop off of intensity as fatigue set it as I could see ,we were just well off the pace from word go and suffered the consequences. Cas have some quality in their team but haven’t been quite at the races, we rolled over and gave them the game on a silver platter without so much as a murmur. Pride, passion, went out of the window last night , some will be hurting after that performance of that I’ve no doubt ,some won’t and some simply aren’t good enough or bothered by the looks . Poaching will be hurting just as much as us ,I’ve no doubt ,let’s hope he can rally them for Monday or our points difference is going to be in for a battering not to mention the team .on a brighter note I’ve saved myself a whole lot of money in having a family day on Monday ,instead of taking the clan to Wigan ,I’ve had a stomach full this Easter ,so I’m giving it along with my wallet a break

boy have you changed your tune

what narks me is when you have a player with the clubs colours running through his veins and you allow him to leave to bring in a replacement that has shown quality in the past but is now defunct of any decent performance I just don't get it

Thankfully I am circa 100 miles away so missed the game, was gutted initially but it sounds like the better deal here! Can't comment on the performance as I wasn't at the game, or the Wigan one, but for the past 200 minutes of Rugby we've scored 16 points and conceded 94. What the hell happened at half time against Salford?! We've been rubbish since.
