Blaming the ref for a defeat is pathetic & embarrassing. There are numerous calls that can go either way in every game, one set of fans is going to be peeved by each one. Officials get 99% correct. Cas lost, as nearly every team does, because they weren't good enough. Too many penalties (probably the majority of tries these days follow in the next 6 after a penalty), too many basic errors, crap kicking game, wrong attitude from some players. I enjoyed the game, despite this, coming on here does sour things some what though.

Tigertot, give yourself an uppercut. The majority of people on here accept KR were the better team & we lost due to not being good enough. Whenever a team loses by so few points, fans will naturally draw back to a decision that went against them and think, "what could have been" but by Cas fans standards (yep we do more often then not give refs stick) we accept KR deserved the win, purely on having a reasonable kicking game, something we can only dream of right now.

And in that one sentence your whole posting history is in tatters. By the powers of Sky+ I have the ball frozen on Dobson's toe as I type. Welham is approx 6 feet behind him. "Well done for Most Inaccurate post of the Season".

Apart from that, everything else you wrote was garbage as well. We were utter bobbins but still considerably better than Cas.

There is a huge difference between 'what could have been' & 'quite literally cost us the match'. Blaming the officials, usually with as much invective as possible, usually incorrectly, has infected all major sports, even the so called gentleman's sports. It is the most unpleasant part of our game.

Ha, ha.... If only you knew, mate.

Well done Gronk, that's 3 seasons on the bounce. Beers are on you, champ.

Back to the game: It was there for the taking for both teams, IMO. You can debate the ref's decisions all you like, but ultimately, Cas were the architects of their own downfall. Entertaining viewing for the neutral, all the same.
