We need wins now time has gone when we were looking just for improvement

Fair points, but for mine he keeps making the same error of getting drawn onto a half or second row who is looking to get outside the inside defender and then a quick pass puts the centre clear. If it’s a tight game we cannot afford things like that. Don’t get me wrong, i’m Not saying others aren’t making errors but when it happens it usually ends in 6 points.

Newman works as a selection if we can get him into some space, he’s very good in possession.

However if we don’t then his defensive frailties are forefront.

Not a bad call Sutcliffe to centre as a better defensive pick, potentially, but it’s swings and roundabouts really. We could do with consistency in positions.

Some young forwards too Jools. Fair play to Hudds for giving youth its chance. There is some potential at Hudddersfield and if you can keep them together over next few years you have the makings of a very good team.

It does appear so. The two “polar bears” in Matty English and Oliver Wilson show some great promise for forwards so young. Both are fearless, those kind of sick puppies that love the collision


The future bodes well, I just hope having to chuck them in all at once doesn’t backfire. But I’m glad we did that rather than get in loanees like KR.

Don't agree I thought we played much better against Hull,we need now to build on that.

So did I, but if we start off badly for s third game on the trot, that would give serious questions about preparation and mentality with this team.

I thought we looked far better against Hull but we simply have to start better, we were awful for the first 15 minutes

Sutcliffe has played centre before. He was good in attack but weak in defense. Give Newman another crack for me.

Newman is going to learn so much from this season he'll become a very very good player but hes a weak link in defence at present with which we cant afford, however I'd like to see him keep his place as he gives us more threat in attack

There is lapses, but Hurrells defence is a far more concerning weak link.

Haven't seen all the recent games, but when was the last time Newman made a decent contribution in attack?

If we want to tighten up and reduce scope for errors then Sutcliffe should play centre.

Hurrell also coughs up more ball. I’d stick with Harry, it’s a great learning experience for him, but he needs more support from his inside defender telling him which man he has.

When has Sutcliffe ever made a decent contribution in attack?

Agree, young Newman has done nothing in attack of late and Sutcliffe is a better defender than both Newman and Hurrell

It's that time again folks......Blame The Teenager.

After Hurrells efforts last couple of games, seems very strange. Newman was excellent defensively at Cas where the rest of the team were also doing their jobs.

Hurrell should hand back the marquee part of his wages until he can hold his shape in the defensive line. I hate seeing players jump out flapping their arms like he does, Hall used to drive me mad too. Map inside to out, trust your inside, keep your hips square and use the touchline as an extra defender it's not hard.

On the game tonight I've a feeling Huddersfield will have the better attitude towards getting the job done and getting closer to safety. More 'learnings' for Leeds and 'one or two areas to fix up' but with time quickly running out.

I am not confident either. Leeds showed against KR they have poor attitude. That was the game to go all guns blazing to win and to pretty much secure our safety and as usual we came out and played awful. We seem to raise our game for the tougher matches and just miss out and then play poorly against the teams down the lower end of the table and lose to them also.

Any suggestions as to best place to park tonight?

After Reading the last few posts, I'd suggest on your drive

I usually park at one if the ‘unofficial ‘ car parks outside the stadium it costs but It saves hassle finding somewhere

Should have had Peteru on that bench. Don’t like going light with the bench,

Oh no much better to get ferres down the middle and have Mr utility Sutcliffe on the bench

expect a leeds win tonight, should really be winning this game we have so many youngsters playing again
