| Quote ="craigizzard"Keinhorst is a really good player to have in our squad - he's a good footballer, can cover a number of positions and seems to have a great attitude. But is he ever going to be a regular starting second-row for us? I wouldn't have thought so.
Walters was very promising in 2014 but went backwards this year, then had an amazing moment at Old Trafford. Realistically, Keinhorst and Walters were 6th and 7th choice second-rows for us this year behind Ablett, Ward, Delaney, JJB and Achurch. Keinhorst moved above Achurch to 5th during the season. JJB's injury moves them up a spot for the beginning of next year, but if Westerman signs (and there's not much doubt he's a better player than either of them) they slip back down again. Not sure how much of a future I see for Walters at Leeds in that case.'"
Walters earlier this year admitted to struggling to find form after a decision was made to put several more kilos bulk on him during the last close season, a deliberate attempt by the club to give him a greater physical presence and longevity in the game. I personally hope both he and Keinhorst kick on from Saturday, as they both had a massive part in the victory.

| Keinhorst has been great this season. I really rate him. I think he'll be a regular in the 17 next season.
I like Walters' attitude. He needs to get more energy though.

| I hold my hands up and admit i didn't see a future with us first half of this year and expected him to leave and join Wakey at the end of the season.He hasn't moaned though over the last few years as he has been used very sparingly and farmed off to Hunslet or Wakey on loan but its clear to see he has spent that time improving his game and this second half of the year it has paid dividends for him as he looks a different player. With a good off season bulking up a bit more he could become even better over the next 18 months 2 years, a real success story and great advert for working hard and sticking with something to achieve a goal.I'm really happy for him too because he seems a quality bloke with a great attitude.

| I think a few of us on here made the point about Walters trying to put on too much size too quickly in the off-season, and it certainly seemed to affect the footwork and mobility that was a key part of his game. He's never going to be the size or physical challenge of a Joel Tomkins, but there's a Liam Farrell style player in there.
Ideally for Keinhorst, he could do with Leeds deciding where they want him to play and let him do the gym work required to get there. At the moment, he looks a bit like a centre playing in the second row. He's reliant on his mobility and workrate to make an impact, because again he's not going to smash people out of the way. When you're running with three props on the field, you can probably carry lighter, more mobile second rows as you don't need them to do the donkey work.

It also helps when you have Hall /Briscoe to do an early carry in the set of six when kicked deep.

The threequarters did a magnificent job on Saturday of helping a very tired pack.

| Kallum Watkins played far more of a 2nd row role than that of a centre on Saturday. His defence was outstanding (apart from getting outrun by Farrell early doors!!)

| I thought the second rows were outstanding. I thought the props were. I thought the centres were. I thought the Halves were. The hooker was outstanding. Wings were ok Full back outstanding.
