Poor effort... : Sun Aug 02, 2009 1:34 pm  

...from the Cas Supporters today.

The players were out enthused on the pitch by a better team and the supporters were second best to the HKR fans.

Occasionally after games, we knock individuals or the team in general,but today we were 2nd best all over the ground.

I think there was more than the fans that wasnt fully sober today, we looked real poor in second half, a real lack of effort which for the first time this season I can say, were 12 down and cooke missed a drop goal and all our players had thier hands on thier heads, a poor ref display too. First half we match KR and second they rapped up Chase and we didnt have a second option. H KR we supurior in second half and we couldnt match them, KR fans were great too, a good following and very vocal. Well done KR you deserved it. Cas was a wake up call and what happended to our never say die attitude? really disapioned today, the first time in years were Ive walked out weve a few minuites to go, This match IMO was biggest of the season how its planned out, and the effort was not thier what so ever, they were either hung over or just had the 2 weeks off in back of thier minds, anyway im chessed off I really am, well done KR
Well Whinos away next lets hope they have their heads in gear

I heard a rumour that the Cas players had been in Amsterdam for 3 days this past week from someone claiming to be Joe's cousin. It doesn't really make sense considering the importance of today's game and the fact that I've read that TM is giving the team some time off following this game anyway.

I don't think it's true, and believe it's more likely that they are going away for a few days as of today. Anyone else heard anything about this?

The ref did give HKR field position a few times where they scored tries from them.

Our problem was we let dobson dictate everything on the field.
We never closed him down, he had a field day with the space we gave him.
On the other hand chase had a good first half, second half justin morgan sussed him out and he was closed out of the game. If only TM had done that with dobson the shoe might have been on the other foot come full time.

An absolute ridiculous rumour and can't believe you must have thought there was an element of truth in this by actually asking the question on a forum.

they have the week off now back in next monday

Hopefully the week off will bring them back fresh for the final run in.

The week off will do us good.

We have won 5 of our last 7 games. I'm sure we would have all taken that. There's no panic, we were beaten by a better team today.

I wish I had titled this thread better as I'm not knocking the effort of our team on the whole. I was pointing out that as supporters, we have control over our efforts in helping the team to win and today I thought the supporters were only 'singing when we were winning'.
