Is that because Porsche's are expensive to own and spend a lot of time in the repair shop, increasingly so as they get older?

no idea. the analogy seemed right

I seem be on the minority as I think Peacock had a good game. As far as I recall there was one dropped ball but the rest was ok.

I agree on most other things though, namely Clarkson, Hardaker and most of the forwards. Though I must say Ryan Hall was my MoM, once again showing that he IS international class.

Lastly, I do not see what on earth Ben Cross offers us that Ambler doesn't.

Any update on Senior? Hope it's not serious.

My brother said to me last night that it would be a terrible shame if that was his last ever game in a Leeds shirt.

As tad knows the game for me last night was all about my kids although i never thought we were in doubt of losing even when behind, point is good teams turn up from the 1st minute so we need to start well next week against the wire. On another note if my son pulled out your golden gamble ticket last night you are welcome to buy me a drink

Was anyone impressive for The Quins????

And of course, any performance in a low-intensity, p[ii[/isspoor standard CC fixture against the Mighty Quins simply has to be a pointer to the international class credentials of Ryan Hall.

May I take this opportunity to congratulate Ryan on his international class credentials and place him alongside some other all-time international class credentialled SL greats like erm..... Francis Cummins, Karl Pratt, Ikram Butt, Matt Diskin, Ryan Bailey, Ewan Dowes, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Nathan McAvoy, Nick Scruton, Lee Smith, Danny Ward, Phil Cantillon, Jamie Mathiou, Ryan Sheridan, Marcus St Hilaire, Danny Williams, Gareth Morton, Wayne McDonald and SINFIELD!!!









That's Ian Sinfield BTW

Who the hell did Jamie Mathiou play international rugby for?

Played 3 times for Ireland, one which was against [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_league/world_cup_2000/1018738.stmEngland at Headingley in the 2000 RL World Cup![/url

EDIT: I'm pants at quoting on my iPhone.

I'll let you off then by selecting your quotes for you.



I occasionally like to oblige





He'd need to provide some form of flash in the pan moment at international level first before I could even consider such an assertion. Two tries against France doesn't even remotely constitute a semblance of a flash in anyone's pan IMO.

Your an A$$!

How can you say Peacock is "a worry" back for 3 games and he went straight to top of the meters made chart, some people are far too quick to point the fingure, get a grip. He's still by far the best prop at the club and in the top 3 in SL.

Oh the irony

My MOM was Delanney - his tackling was very good on Friday - the whole game was pretty poor stuff - dull would be and understatement.

Hopefully Sinfield isn't going to use the long kick to Hardaker in every game although if we don't improve it may be the only way through against Warrington on Friday.

I hate to see a player get a serious injury but Senior being out for the Warrington and Saints game can only be a positive provided Hauraki isn't brought in to cover Ablett's move to centre.

The two worst performances Smith and Burrow both contributed little - especially going forward.

Also McShane is seeing less game time - why?

Would it??

Everyone can see that Senior is making a big mistake trying to extend a superb career. He is/was a SL great, a player who will be remembered for a tremendous contribution to the SL concept/ the greatest leeds team ever IF he retires now. However if he returns and continues to make more ineffective and lacklustre performances like he has so far this season he'll leave on a low.

If I was a vet I'd put him out of his misery.

Strange how he only got 20mins, thought it would've been an ideal game for him to start.

What a ridiculous and awful thing to say!

I think that if keith is out now for a period of time you so called fans will start to see the hole he will leave when he is not there. Until he is ready to retire he should be a shoe in for that position because he still has plenty to offer, and there ARE NO BETTER alternatives.

Why?

I reckon the Mcshane thing is getting out of control. Up until coming off the bench and playing well earlier in the season no one was sure about his ability to replace Buderus. Now 4 or 5 decent and i say decent not world beating performaces later and the lad is awesome.

Don't get me wrong he has looked tidy, but is still some way behind Buderus and while DB is still here he should be used to the max and McShane brough on as an impact player which IMO is what he is best at.

In defense, there is a better alternative in the form of Ablett. Keith probably edges it going forward.

Agreed, but why wait 60mins to bring him on? Why not give him the last 10 of the first half, when Quins were starting to tire, then give him the last 20 of the second. I think Brian McD should've spelled them better.

Agreed

My worry is ablett being used in the centre will mean hauraki might get a place against warrington.

Hope not, would rather see pitts included

Seconded.

I'd have Clarky at loose with JJB & Pitts in the SR.

that's a good shout and with Ali on the bench there is just no place that I can see for hauraki.

Well said that man.

Ablett has staked his claim for LF....think it would be wrong to have him drop back to centre. Not a lot of pace in the backs with so many 'forwards' playing there....not a desirable option... ESPECIALLY against Wariington.

How quick is Wilson ?
