It could be a lot worse. Phil Clarke could post on here.

That really would be bad. Your stats are relevant and normally a response to a question.

If phil clarke posted on here you'd get random musings like ''did you now eddeh, that 6.7% of the time the first try scorer in a match on a friday night has a receeding hairline with a name beginning with R. This shows wiggin are the best team in the competition.''........In a curry neet thread.

Against Blackpool he kicked quite a few from wide out. His only miss been from the touchline. Infact the last kick of the match was from the touchline.

Hmmm.

Good to see you going to the game to form your opinion or was it read from a scribble pad of mad ramblings?

Unlike you matey, I have only missed the two games, one of which saw on sky.

Also unlike you, I actually know who the players are. Are you comfortable yet in knowing which player Burgess is?

Great win tonight and still plenty of improvement in us.
On the downside seeing Peacock go off with what looked like a really bad injury was a real blow and then losing young Clarkson didn't help either.
Just to add Smithy was limping before Wire scored their last try and had to have his thigh heavily strapped.

Sounds like you played really well tonight leeds. Coming back to abit of form.

It should boost the confidence even though we played well i think we can improve ten fold as can Wire.
Harrison was fantastic tonight for you lot and our defence was much improved which it needed to be because we spent the last 15 minutes virtually defending in our 20m.

yeah, he has really stepped up after the wembley win. some of the hits he's produced are out of this world. Seems to be over shadowed by joel tomkins alot though, even though i think harrison is the better player.

Well played Leeds. Sounded like the better side won and Peacock was off early on. Good luck against pies in challenge cup.

He was tough to put down,tackled like a machine and when you were chasing the game was off-loading for fun.
He should be in the England squad if he maintains his form no doubt about it.

Well done Leeds, good luck for the rest of the season..great team you've got there.

Clearly Kylie hasn't got much sleep recently, he looks like he wants to smash everyone

Ditto. In Westwood and Harrison you have two superb back rowers. Young Riley should've shown more confidence with a few chances early on but apart from the first 12 and last 10 mins I thought we were very dominant against very good opposition so I was pleased tonight.

all very civil on here.

Did Sinfield kick 5 out of 5 tonight?
The majority of them from fairly wide out?
I thought so.

I rate Harrison.
Bridge was disappointing as was Atkins, though in his defence he seemed to be playing out of position.
What on earth was Briers doing playing for about 5 minutes in hs stocking feet?
Fantastic defensive effort especially without Peacock for almost the entire game.
The pass from Buderus to McGuire that set up the 1st try was absolutely world class.
Pity Hall didn't have the bottle to take Mathers on the outside.
But what a great performance after some of our earlier efforts this season.
Can't wait for the next 2 games.

I'd certainly agree with that. Ran onto the ball purposefully too - well timed running of good lines and at pace.

Westwood is a far smarter player than his reputation or face would imply.

westwood was always class but he has cut out the stupid stuff and really improved his discipline. he was outstanding last night

True - what I found noticeable last night was where he tackled - as high as is legally possible. That makes him aggressive and someone the attacker is not going to look forward to running at, mentally as much as physically, but it doesn't concede the penalties because its legal.

in the past i have said i wouldn't want him at leeds. thats because he was very similer to what we already had,add to that his poor discipline.
he has really improved all aspects of his game, and yes, i would love him here

Similar here. He looked like a bit of a liability at times and I was surprised when he got close to international honours, but I'd say he justified his selection and in the last couple of years has become a far better player. With hindsight, would have done a great job as Ellis's replacement.

What's with all the loving on here?


We just didnt turn up at all last night, bitterly disappointed.
I honestly thought you struggled a bit when Peacock went off and we didnt take enough chances but Leuleui put his hand up. Really rate him.
Genuinely dont see what you guys see in Bailey, think he's tosh and Senior's still got it. Briers had a stinker both in defence and execution of plays. It won't be the same when you play at our place, I guarantee you that

Wires had one of their poorer performances on the night,but credit to Leeds who defended very well especially early on when we were putting some pressure on. Overall we had an off day,it happens,it's now history,and I look forward to us thrashing Hudds again next week!
