Sat 22nd Feb: SL: Castleford Tigers v St Helens KO 20:00 (SS+/SL+)

[The Blues Ox]

Commentators making out Cas defo score there but the support player could hardly keep up. He would have been tackled straight away.

[graveyard johnny]

"hes just made a great break!"  Asi?  "yes he as"

[MZH]

I thought Welsby had one pull too many on that break. Could have easily found himself carded.

Cas have done really well to get back into this game, Saints looked red hot for 20 minutes

Agreed. I think it would be stretching it a bit to say they are in the game, but they've shown a lot of spirit to fight back after that first 15.

I just found out the Cas fullback does not have a double barreled name. I really thought his surname was Fletcher-Rooney.

Good game!

A bit underwhelming this game after recent opening games. 
 

Cas looked terrible that first 15, especially on their edges. 
 

Saints were awful that last 15 of first half with their right edge exposed repeatedly. Cas though don’t have the quality or execution to post that many points to take advantage. 
 

Not been overly impressed by both and some leaky defence on show from both after some strong defensive intensity in many other games from round 1 and 2.

Anyone else's tv tell them they were getting a text message then?

 

 

I've not heard that noise in aaaaages

John-stone

[dkw]

That's a ridiculous kick 

[Futtocks]

That backheel under pressure - nearly came off!

[Just Browny]

Double ice bath for Delaney this week, they haven't half knocked him about.

Clark is permanently three yards in front of the ball, starting a YMCA in the direction of the ref.

[MZH]

Second half starts the same way as the first and Castleford's fightback is dead in the water.

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Deserved a try that back heel

Watching from an overcast and showery Brisbane Australia.

Impressed by young Robertson playing for St Helens.  

Read about his background ... hopefully has a great international career ! 

 

 

[bratman]

Hmm, Cas getting battered again

[Futtocks]

Harry Robertson dances through to score.

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Harry Roberts in.  

[The Blues Ox]

I really feel like Saints could benefit from having Hurrell back in the line up and sending Robertson out on DR to gain some experience.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Big Al bulldozes in.

Can you explain what DR is please ? 

Sounds like the coach opted for Robertson over Hurrell and hasn't been proved wrong yet.

Hurrell at Halifax at the moment? On loan ?
