How many games have you been to? If you think that was one of the Rhinos worst performances than I'd guess not many. Or you go and close your eyes for 80 mins.

I'd agree with David Howes summary, we dominated territory and possession and blew a number of clear cut chances. With more clinical finishing the result would've been at least 38-12.

If he/she didn't go they still have a better grasp of the game than you.

How many did we drop?

Missing the point spectacularly. Did you go? How did we get into those positions? By Huddersfield dropping the ball, not by creative play working downfield or incisive breaks. And those dropped balls were not pressured defence either.

The quality of players and the remnants of Smith's influence keep us there for now. Hopefully, we'll stay in the hunt and reach the final so Bluey can do his John kear impression and gee us up for the big one.

Disagree The fact that the rest of the league, (with exception to Saints) is so poor is what keeps us there.

Yes I went and its' you who have missed the point.

My thread is about our strength in depth.

Were we missing the players I've hightlighted? Yes.

Were we playing the players out of position I mentioned? Yes.

Were we playing with 16 men? Yes

Were the players I said were injured, injured? Yes.

Did we, despite this, still record the double of one of our nearest challengers? Yes.

Did we, as a result, climb to 2nd in the league? Yes.

That is the point. Yet you talk about Huddersfield dropping the ball as if its' the only reason we won, spectacularly ignorant of the fact that we also dropped plenty, three of which were certain tries.

This is why I use the term fekkwitt. You're very illustrative.

How far away do you reckon our academy is away from producing another Sinfield, Burrow or McGuire?

I've no idea. But there's no rush. They've got about four or five years to do so.

Is that right? Why would I comment on a game I didn't go to?






My comment is irrelevant because it doesn't agree with yours? Leeds had 3 or 4 genuine try scoring opportunities in the first half and blew them all - had they taken them they would have stuck 50 on Huddersfield. However you claim that because Huddersfield dropped the ball a couple of times in their own half, that was the reason they didn't win the game?



Even the ultra professional Kylie joked in the Rhinos2000 bar about the amount of dropped ball by Leeds near the line made the task even harder. (Oh hang on, I didn't go, how would I know what he said?

)

is this not the general idea, to stay there or thereabouts and peak when it matters?

or shall we win 20 odd on the bounce but lose when it matters, like saints last year. then we can say

Had we lost, which without huddersfield handing us territory on a plate, we would have been 4th.

But of course our strength in depth is great......... no really

..........

It is just betwen us and Saints. Rhinos fekwitism personified.

Probably about 50 years or unless the international community allows cloning humans in the near future.
Damo will be keeping a tighthold of Keefs DNA sample until such time occurs.

It is indeed.

I've not been the one panicking around here, despite some grave concerns I still have.

In fact, I was the one who last week said if we could get our best 17 out and solve the discipline, we would win it again.

Ifs and buts.

Had we not bombed three tries it would have been 38-12.

If you had an IQ in double figures you'd understand the game better.

that you did yes. some people seem to think we should be peaking now though. we peaked far too early last year,although we did take the WCC more seriously and didn't have the world cup either.
as long as we peak in september nobody will remember june

A couple of times in own half. You want to give the person who told you a bollocking for making you look silly. Far greater than a couple of times, but thanks for confirming you were not there.

There or not, still got a better grasp on the game than you.

Would you care to back up his couple of times dropped in own half?

Did you used to be DISA?

So what you are saying is Huddersfield are so inept that they kept dropping the ball in their own half [size=150BUT[/size if they hadn't been so inept and had managed to actually make their way into our 20 on more than the 3 occasions, THEY WOULD, MOST DEFINITELY have scored tries and beaten us?

Have I got that right?

the only criticism i have is a failure to convert chances. we defended well, attacked well and we forced a lot of errors to which people are forgetting

We won,doesn't matter how at the end of the day.2 points in the bag.Consigned to the history books and all that.


Roll on the quins!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can change the name but you can't increase the IQ.





Nailed.

Its quite funny actually, I'd love to use his argument

Get found out to be talking sh*t, so turn round and say "But you didn't go" - the bloke doesn't even know me



As it happens, my good mate MjM's father is on holiday and I got a freebie in the cheap seats



GOTCHA!!!!

Just tell him you are Phil Daly.

he also fails to give credit for forcing the Hudds dropped balls. At least 3 of them were due to impact of our tackles, 2 from Kylie alone.

But its' all because Hudds dropped the ball in DISA's world.
