| Still lots to work on, but the defence was better than it's been all season.
I will say though, Myler has to be the most negative scrum half I've seen in a Leeds shirt. Never takes on the line, never puts in an attacking kick.

Took his try very well but he was going for the interception rather than the tackle, really poor attitude but slightly improved from previously (not much to boast about)

| Where did that defensive display come from?
Like others have said, not pretty, but can’t knock the effort one bit.
Feared the worst when I saw that pack on paper, but thought they were great laying the platform for field position tonight.
Newman’s a star, Ava chewed up metres, Dwyer and Watkins outstanding, and Tui’s try!!
Nice to see some smiles on faces at the end.

| Excellent win that and a huge 2 points guven our next 3 or 4 fixtures. We look to be building slowly but surely. Agar has steadied the ship so credit there.
Newman was excellent.. what a super talent he is. Ava Merrin Dwyer v good. Ava's best game to date. Conditions helped us a bit but v happy with that.

To be fair, that's a common play for most full backs these days. Matt Bowen was excellent at it, and Darius Boyd is a master of it.

| You could sellotape Bowen and Boyd together and they'd run faster and weigh less than Tui.

Thought he was absolutely awful. His try was a bit of a comedy. But his all round performance was a liability all over.
Watkins, Ava, Dwyer, Briscoe, Newman, and Merrin were brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
Thoroughly deserved win, very committed, and lots of hard work.
Please get rid of Ferres though.

| Well.... that wasn’t a classic Wakefield side to be fair, and we got let off the hook a couple of times, but the defence was great and we had them covered mostly.
That’s it for me for the rest of this season; Watkins in second row and Newman to centre.
Can’t wait for Ward to get back, we’ve really missed him.

| Handley gets a lot of stick but he tidied up whatever came his way pretty well I thought. Hurrell was feeling his way back from injury but also pretty good.
We need a Fifita-style prop to inspire that pack, and definitely some better quality in the halves. I could live with most of the rest of the squad as it’s looking for next year.
Newman is brill but I was a bit disappointed he got run down for that breakaway. His D was the most pleasing thing though - you can see his improvement there.

Indeed, hopefully it'll be Ferris that makes way for him. I don't think I've disliked a Leeds player more than Ferris.

| Both Handley and Briscoe deserve credit for tracking back on the Wakefield break that led to Lolohea’s try. Without them both tracking back Lolohea would have had to have gone for the tackle instead.
Efforts that maybe in the past wouldn’t have happened or would have been directed elsewhere.

When Tui was going through for the try he went past Myler who just stood still. McGuire and Burrow of old would have been on their toes and inside him waiting for a pass. Great effort in defence overall and vital 2 points, got 8 out of last 12 at home now

| Really pleased with that win, our line soeed and effort in defence was the best I’ve seen for a long time, yes it wasn’t pretty but the weather was truly awful, hopefully we can kick on, next week against Wigan is a huge huge game now

He showed maturity, if winning by 20 plus go for it, but in the circumstances he played the %'s.
Impressed by the "D" also Watkins looked liked a bloke with the weight removed from his shoulders.

| I was impressed with how we played for each other and were smart in effort. If anyone caught Brad Dwyer's comments at fulltime with Jon wells he indicated that the team spoke to each other about how they needed to be smart with the effort they put in looking at the team as a whole, not individually. Well it certainly paid dividends tonight. I'm not getting carried away, but effort and solid D will get us a fair way this year, we just need to work on attack now.

Handley was excellent tonight, but just how good is Newman going to be, for his size he’s excellent in collision

| Good win tonight defended our goaline better than at any point this season
A win that should lift a bit of pressure off everyone at the club. We badly needed that.
As people have said Handley and Briscoe did a really nice job in tough conditions.
Pleased for Tui to get that try.
The whole pack worked had with Merrin again outstanding and big Ava did well particularly in hos 2nd spell.
Newman the star though. Hes really showing the ability I've seen in the academy. Hes a good defender at this level now, hes strong, athletic and got great footwork and speed. An outstanding young talent and weve plenty more in the wings.
Let's not make out everything in the garden is rosy again, were miles off and Wakey was poor but we showed a lot of heart and spirit tonight.
Weve lead games by 6 and 8 points this year and we all felt we would lose it late on but I never felt that tonight. We seemed in control defensively throughout which was pleasing.
Let's hope we can build on it now.

Agreed, on the Tui try it was an exceptional piece of defending from the wingers and to give Tui the credit he took that really well, its harsh of people to say he went for the easy option, he didn’t, he was really aware that the wingers had tracked back and took exactly the correct option, there is a talented player in there and in a better ‘team’ he may shine, not sure whether we have that luxury at the moment though.
Merrin was again outstanding and a big wrap to Watkins who worked his socks off and was very unlynot to get the try

| Hats off the lads.
Far from a classic from either side but pleasing to see them dig in.
The silly penalties need to stop though, on another night the overall weight of Wakefield pressure would have told.
They need to go again next week against Wigan. Get a result then and we can start to feel a little happier about avoiding relegation.

| I thought Singo and Ferres were the poorest of the pack, Lui the backs. Myler I'll give the benefit of the doubt to. While his kicks weren't the most attacking, he didn't serve up some of he horrors he has in the past. That right hand side still needs work defensively. Wakey's execution was diabolical but they knew where the space was alright; Williams won't let us off the hook so easy, especially on a dry park.
Sounds a bit negative, that. But much quicker to type a list of shortcomings than it would have been to type a list of what worked and who played well. I was proud of the team last night. Been a while.
