The shaved Ape is a sore loser, don't expect anything less from him.



Doesn't like it when his dirty, niggly thugs get beat.

Cas deserved winners no doubt. If I were a Wigan fan though I'd be tearing my hair out about that sloppy laying-on penalty that Jack Hughes gave away at 4-6. Cas had to endure a tough 10-15 prior to that and he let them off big time.



Thought at 4-6 Wigan would snatch it and that Cas whilst impressive in so many departments had too many disappointing kicks that allowed Wigan to start sets higher up the pitch than they should've done and that would be their undoing. For Wigan, they looked uncharacteristically unorganised and lacking structure in attack near the Cas line......that BTW is not to say that Cas weren't great in defence, just Wigan can look at the tape on Monday and be disappointed in some of the things they did/didn't do with ball in hand.



Thought the main reason why Wigan would win pre-game (apart from obvious home field advantage) is something I questioned when Leeds played Cas a few weeks back.....their defence. They've put up some good showings against the top teams this year but conceded too many points in those games (even when they beat Wigan at home they shipped 30 themselves). But today they blew that out of the water, probably even the most hardcore of Cas didn't think they'd only concede 4 points today.

You'd expect nothing less from him and Wigan did their fare share of slowing things down today.



Hopefully an all Yorks semi-final line up now[size=150 if[/size Bradford can pull off a shock tomorrow.

You seen Widnes on a map lol.



A Leeds/Cas,,,,,Wire/Widnes semi line up would be interesting.

He sums up the Wigan club. Horrible, arrogant people who spit their dummies out then things don't go their way.



I'm delighted they lost.

Castleford played far better rugby - the scoreline flattered us.



No excuses - win some, lose some. Good luck to Cas, hope they or Widnes go on and win it.

Agree.Definitely a knock on, but the video ref did have the seed planted when Silverwood suggested a charge down.

Best team won. Wigan were poor and Castleford played well, their defence was outstanding. Hope they go on and win it.

Have to say, wish our coach was half as upset when we lost.



Great game

Wane after the match on BBC gave credit to Cas and said that the best side won

Except he didn't. What he said was "they lied on better in the contact" and "they controlled the ruck speed very very well which they always do and the officials allowed them to do that". He was actually paying you a compliment on controlling the contact, the tackle and the ruck better than Wigan did and doing it in such a way the officials were happy with it.



He also said, "they completed their sets better, they ended their sets better, they had a bit more vigour ... they were the better team, we were beaten by the better team no doubt about that, they deserve to be in the semi finals and we don't."



He's right. Cas offered more and defended like Wigan did against Leeds a few weeks ago. Wigan ran out of ideas in attack and offered very little. Cas were superb and deserved it.



Got to say though, from the reaction you'd think Cas won the cup today. How many times do you see the entire squad and coaching staff posing for a picture under the sticks!

Erm, Cas do it most weeks. It's called showing family spirit with the fans and creating moments.



People really need to get over this and stop crying about it.



I mean, the Wigan account has tweeted a pic of the U19s stood on a balcony after beating London. Tsk, small club mentality....
