Although most played their part last night thought JP has been fantastic through the playoff and back end of the season. Even if it is being used more sparingly he has still something to offer to the Leeds pack. All the pack and indeed team stood up when in counted.

But 10 grand finals and 8 winners rings in a career is a special achievement, one we might not seen matched. A great servant to both Leeds and Bradford and for me one of if not the best signing Leeds have made in recent times

Must strongly agree

....and for him to get his sister to postpone her wedding from yesterday to today as well, top guy!

I was surprised that he didn't get a vote for MOM yesterday. Awesome display.

At fault for Warrington's opening try? Leeds' goal-line centre field defence exposed just as it has often been this season. Wasn't an issue last week at Wigan though - strange that.

Peacock is an absolute legend but it wouldn't be the crime of the century if he followed Sinfield's and Ablett's lead of doing less but contributing more.

couldn't agree more tvoc. however kylie is also doing short spells so you couldn't really use both sparingly.

any idea how many minutes griffin played yesterday? didn't seem to be on much

I think Leeds can, if they being in Singelton to share some front row minutes and also have Bailey / Kirke back at Prop. I have to say Kirke for me has put in some strong perfomances over the last couple of months as well. Delaney,JJB and Mitch at 2nd row, Ablett / Bailey at loose


Peacock = Rugby League legend....what he has done at Leeds, Bradford and GB has been nothing short of fantastic

15/18 minute single stint.

Seen JP stats this morning over 200m made. Big effort, big heart

Was it really that long?

I looked at the clock on the screen, and thought he came on about 45 minute mark, and thought he went off on 58 minute mark. Of course there will have been stoppages which held up clock.

TVOC watching the game back i think JP may have got a grip on Myler if he hadn't been taken out by Jjb who had tackled the dummy runner!!

I see your state of euphoria and excitement at the positive events of Saturday still hasn't died down.

An absolute legend of the game, JP has been awsome in the playoffs. Can he give another season or two, definatley if used sparingley early season

What?

In the GF JP made 209 metres, 32 carries, 30 tackles, 4 Marker tackles, 2 offloads, 1 tackle bust. Are you suggesting he brings the water on as well when he is on the bench?

need to watch it again


peacock was simply to slow to get to myler and only managed to get a hand on his dipping shoulder as he went past.
by the time jjb makes contact with harrison and then peacock, myler is a good meter through the line.

(jjb out to in defence leaves some questions though)

Fair do's MHL i thought JP still had a hand on Myler when he collided with Jjb thus losing his grip!

In the Taverner's suite there is a plaque dedicated to club legends going back to "Bucket"Young and Freddie Webster.Kevin Sinfield is on of course,but I think there now should be another name added,Jamie Peacock

Are the player stats (in all their flaky accuracy) available anywhere? I usually rely on reading them here but I can't see them...

I can't believe that in a thread stating how good JP is, someone has to highlight a missed tackle. And a missed tackle on a nippy half back at that. For a prop who has played the minutes and games he had, it can be excused. Myler summed up the situation and scored a good try. I guess some people just can't help looking at the negatives and stating the obvious.

Since JP announced his international retirement he seemed to have improved each week. Maybe it's in the knowledge that he'll finally get a break this closed season. He might not always make big yards but invariably attracts 3 or 4 defenders.

Legend doesn't seem to come close when describing him

While I agree with the rest, he had only played 3 minutes of this particular game...

But isolating your nimble halves against a prop forward in a bit of space is the sort of opportunity an attacking structure dreams of creating. Only one likely outcome from that point.

I didn't really pay much attention to that score but wasn't it just that the dummy runner drew JJB leaving a agap between him and JP and Myler ran through the hole?

I'd have to watch again. I thought Leeds had numbered up OK but simply got the wrong defender up against Myler. JJB was pulled wide to leave space. I suppose you'd need a shot where you could see the whole line to be sure where the problem was.

Didn't matter in the end though!

You haven't read many of TVOCs posts then?

He's a little ray of sunshine these days.

Thank goodnight he didn't have internet access in the 1980s.
