Leeds 64 Castleford 12
Attendance: As usual, nowhere (apart from the LE and Teletext) lists the attendance. I think it was somewhere around 14000-15000
Highlights:
-As usual, Brad Davis gave his all and Steve Crouch had another good game.
Lowlights:
-The turnout from the Cas fans. I don't normally criticise our fans, but to have 300-400 against Leeds when we have just beaten Hull is very poor.
-Our backs failed to control the pace of the likes of Bai, Senior, Walker. Hull have some very fast players yet we managed to contain them. What went wrong?
Estimated Cas Fans: 300-400. I touched on this above, that was one of the lowest turnouts from Castleford fans for a long time at Headingley.
How were the Cas Fans?Quiet. As has happened so often this season, we have had little to cheer about.
Comedy Moment: I'll give this to the 6 or 7 Cas fans who attempted to conga through the Southstand. I don't know how far they got, but you can't fault them for effort.
See Jenna, I told you I wouldn't mention your socks
In a nutshell: Coupled with Widnes shock win over Wigan, it is now going to be an enormous effort to turn things round. We can win our last 3 games (not if we played like we did against Leeds, mind you) but I feel the likes of Widnes, Salford and London now have enough points to survive.
After some brilliant victories over Huddersfield and Hull, confidence was high and although I didn't expect a win against Leeds, I thought we could have pushed them a little closer. It was not to be and again this Sundays match against Salford is crucial. Not only do we need to win, but we need to improve our points difference.
