Sun 26th Feb: SL: Castleford Tigers v St Helens KO 13:00

[Old Frightful]

Broadbent another making a bad decision, should have got rid.

[MZH]

Broadbent blows another good chance. As good as Welbsy is, not many can stop Faraimo one on one in their own 10.

I'm going with his shorts fall down while someone in the background plays the Benny Hill theme tune.

I'm going with Mamo being spun round in the tackle by the Saints defence, him breaking free and then sprinting the length of the pitch to touchdown only to realise he has run to his own line and conceded a goal line drop out.

Jake Mamo is the best and worst player on the pitch.

Always fearless, sometimes brainless. And a sharp retort to the old farts who say there aren't any characters in the game these days.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Cas not going away and have been more than in this game.

[DoubleD]

Harsh call on LMS, definitely pulled out by Milner

They've been dreadful. The only positive is that they can't possibly make this many mistakes again in the second half.

[Old Frightful]

Did both these teams play in the WCC last weekend?

Deary me.

[Davo5]

Cas doing the RL version of the Keystone Cops.

[The Hallucinating Goose]

Well that was... *cough*

[JimBronco]

Brilliant 1st half with both sides looking to keep the ball alive. Cas must be fuming. So many great try-scoring opportunities wasted but they're still in this.

Absolutely, he had to give it to Faraimo there.

[MZH]

Can't fault Cas for their effort and their positive intent but for execution and basic errors that was about as bad as I've ever seen.

Real errorfest but great entertainment so far.

[snapski]

Good game, playing well. Just individual mistakes that are absolutely killing us.

I know he's having a stinker but that's a bit harsh.

Was going to ask which side you were referring to then realised it works for both.

Yeah, a lot of errors from both sides. Early season rust you could argue but you want to see both sides be more clinical in the 2nd half.

Watts looks to be blowing out of his proverbial

Cas must be weary ...under so much pressure from Saints in first half. All the play seems to have been at Cas end.

[MZH]

Game over.

[graveyard johnny]

not missing Regan  Grace at all then?

I don’t think they were dreadful, but each and every opportunity in Saints’ half was blown.

That was dreadful defending from cas there

[Davo5]

Awful defensive effort.
