There were a couple of nasty headshots that might have had a sin bin, but their discipline was poor. I couldn't believe the player who punched the ball out of Welhams hands AFTER he got up from a tackle (which would have led to a downfield kick on the 5th) thought he would get away with it. it wasn't even 'crafty' and the ref was stood right next to the play, even Thaler would have seen it.

I thought that Cas were well organised and clearly their tactics were to slow us down ... that's just what we (Hull KR) do/did when we were playing superior opposition. Saying that I never thought we were in danger of losing.
Cas' tactics weren't dissimilar to Huddersfield's when they played at ours a few weeks ago. Morgan's comments clearly had the effect of a wake-up call to officials as it seems odd that Huddersfield have only won 1 match (vs Celtic) in the SL since then- maybe it's just a coincidence?
That's my opinion anyway.
(Watching the TV game last night I don't think that Stu Fielden was too impressed with Mr. Thaler)

You got away with murder to be honest with some of the decisions that went your way. Found the offside comment very funny because you were constantly offside and never got punished for it but we did.

I am a very good just of distance and I can tell you that at some points he was taking us back 12 metres, while he took you back 8 at some points, why do you think you were hitting up so quick, it certainly wasn't pace.

Just out of curiosity where were you watching from?

The fortunate thing about standing where I stand is you get an excellent view of the defensive lines and you were consistently offside at PTB, not blinkered, just fact.
