McDonnell, Croft, Mik, Ackers, O’Connor, Martin, Sangare were okay But that was about it for me.

Arthur should give us some structure and discipline but we need new players.

Brad Arthur, even if it is just for a matter of weeks, has got to be better than seeing out the season with what is in place.

I thought Frawley was ok to be honest, but its a terribly low bar

He was okay ball in hand but didn’t put a good kick in all night and who is supposed to be organising the side?

All the howling for Chev & Grix to stay in place are perhaps seeing that maybe it wasn’t just Rohan at fault.
More “Vibes Rugby” from Leeds who let’s be honest absolutely stunk. I cannot wait for Brad Arthur to come in hopefully kick the living bejesus out of this rabble.

Yeah you have to question the players mentality… we’re soft as hell. Weak mentality across much of the squad.

One thing’s for sure, there will be a few reserves and academy lads licking their lips for next season.

Be better off with King Arthur.
Heads might roll!
That was an utter shambles against the worse team in the league.
Why isn`t Sinfield getting a game ahead of that pudding?
Croft slightly better than average the rest of the backs below it.
Not one forward above average save for maybe Martin.
With the team we had playing and all respect to London we should have won by at least 40 points today and that shows how bad we were to snatch a GP win.

London played a simple game. They all knew what they were supposed to do, they were cohesive, worked for each other and did it consistently. It ultimately wasn't effective as they lacked execution.

and what did edgell and Mccormack take from them being dropped for what replaced them.

I would have played them didn’t see the point in playing handley and newman - who was particularly dreadful today.

The good thing about the short turnaround is of any of those players have any pride they should be itching to play Warrington to make amends

If the last game for both sides is any sort of indicator, Wire on Thurs may well make Sts away look like a close run thing.

Thankfully sport doesn’t always pan out that way.

Here’s hoping anyway

Weve said similar so many times this year, this team (though they raised their efforts for Rob against Leigh) dont have that level of desire in them.

Thoughts on post match press conference?

More honest than most this season. They will announce Arthur on Monday I reckon.

Totally agree. I sat watching them warm up in a very slap- dash fashion and feared they'd be poor. I didn’t think for a minute they'd be that poor. This was on the back of another week off to "reset". By the look of Lisone resetting appears to involve a succession of all you can eat buffets. I can't remember winning a game and feeling so dispirited.

I take it Arthur will have Walker and Grix as his backroom support?
Good luck with that although they do have a 100% success rate this season!

No desire, no determination, no set plays and no heart.
Those who think we retain Fusitua are deluded, Momorovski I`m sure plays in slow motion, Miller, Frawley, Lisone, Sangare, Goudemand and even Ackers, Newman, McDonnell and Smith look like relatively good Chmpionship players at best.
I have never seen a team of so called quality players go backwards as much as the team that plays in blue and amber.

Said it before but I'm really concerned about both first choice centres at the minute. Newman has been very ropey at various stages this year - he had one great run today but that was about it. Mom just hasn't done much, although he's clearly a good player I'm just not convinced.

I have this sense of dread that actually most of RS's recruitment will need to be rewound. Most of the side today were either rocks and diamonds, or just rocks. If London had been more intelligent they'd have spotted up Newman and come down his side for an easy try to win the game - Kershaw was calling it but they didn't execute.

Yeah.
We dont just need the muscle we need brains,kicking and leadership too. Hopefully BA can at least get them doing the basics right

I was really disappointed we didn't use this game to give Sinfield and Littlewood a go. That was close to our strongest 17 on paper - it was our first choice back division. Its hard to see how the players in that 17 could play worse.

There's clearly something wrong in terms of attitude, but the gameplan is utterly non-existent. Some of the problems can be fixed by a coach who has very clear ideas about how we should play, and with a simple gameplan focused on being more aggressive with and without the ball and playing for position we'd look so much better.

But we also have to face the harsh reality that some of our squad really aren't good enough. Rohan said something about the plan being to bring through the next generation of kids over the next 2 years. I don't see much reason for wasting time with persevering with the first choice squad. This year should be all about senior players showing they want to stay at Leeds, and giving as much reasonable game time as we can to juniors. I can accept us not doing much for the rest of this season if the younger players get some experience. I cannot accept not giving them a go and we're still rubbish.

I did love McDonnell’s backhand pass to Mom for the first try.

As already mentioned, the mentality around this club is absolutely disgusting, its widespread and been going on for years. Yesterday shouldnt suprise anyone, coming off a half decent result, the useless puddings suddenly think they're the 82 Aussies.

They think they're better than they are, put their leeds tracksuit on, burn a few belongings, talk some absolute e about personality colour schemes, hang JJB's e metal Rhino on a wall and they think they've made it, just have to turn up against someone like London

Add in 3 god awful coaching hires in a row, influencing these players, recipe for disaster. Yesterday was Smith rugby in a bottle, why work hard and play physical and patient, when theres all these shortcuts you can try, his rebuild has been a total disaster.

Good news, atleast GH/the club seem to have finally woke up, relised the game has passed him by, relised being an ex player with no experience isnt the answer, and got someone with an actual CV and recent expierience of successfully building squads and hiring coaches, in to sort it out. So despite yesterday, im pretty excited for the future, by that i mean the rest of this season once Arther gets here, and next season with Blease getting hold of everything...No 5 year plans, in rugby terms, its an utter myth fed by incompetent people, everyone will say it, but the competent onces will do it in one or two.

Sitting in the stands on Saturday with probably 30% of seats vacant in the area I sit which is usually full the remainers talked about the reasons which we quickly concluded was down to England match @ 5pm.
80 minutes later we all had changed our view that a fair proportion was down to excruciatingly poor play on the pitch. Some of us suggesting perhaps the players were the real problem and Smith simply was not good enough to sort the problem out.

Looking at some key players yesterday some of us thought

We need a leader Cam Smith is not good enough to be a water carrier

Miller is a total waste of a shirt as is Fusi

Newman is a spoilt child with no clue as to how to get out of his own self destruct spiral.

The 3 Ex French players are well meaning but clueless

All props are trying but ineffective especially Oledski who seems to have lost his skill and spark

The only players yesterday who looked like they knew what to do were Croft, Martin and Ackers.

As an interim I would turn training over to those 3 and let them form a game plan and let Walker and Grix fill the water bottles.

Excellent posting, no apologies for once again for posting what a deeply flawed side we are. Both physically and mentally, yet again we conceded a try under our own posts from weak tackling. As for Momirovski he looks like he would be happier modelling for grattons catalogue than playing rugby.
Most of the team aren’t willing to undertake the hard graft, what a complete shambles. Big test coming up at Warrington, perform similar to yesterday then it will be a long night.
