The crowd wasnt appalling, it was reasonable

Leeds werent appalling, they were outplayed for large parts of the match , a bit more composure and leadership with 8 minutes left and you would have lost

What about your forecast of a ' Walkover ' ?

not for Leeds it wasnt. It was rubbish. It was reasonable for Leeds 20 years ago and about 6k less than we would usually get at this stage against decent SL opponents. If that was a reasonable crowd for us, we would be in crisis.


Leigh were out on their feet and despite a 7 minute spell, when on the back of a string of penalties they scored twice, they were kept entirely scoreless. For long periods they struggles to get out of their half.

The game was reffed at a championship pace, with a championship ten, We didnt adjust. Leeds gave away 4 penalties (even though the obstruction rule is interpreted terribly at the moment) through obstruction and 3 times threw the ball to Kallum Watkins feet, our 2nd phase play was none-existent even through we made probably 5/6 clear line breaks. Sutcliffe showed his inexperience, stopped play every time it got to him.

If we play like that against Huddersfield, they will put 40 on us. By far our worst performance of the season.

Can't believe you're actually typing this crap Smokey. Your just a flake. Get off this forum you complete and utter noggin.

Typical Smokey. Can't even win with dignity.

Im not going to patronise Leigh or their players by pretending we were better than we were.

Better to keep silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Can you not, for once, give Leigh some credit and say a magnanimous word in victory?

What a graceless, mealy-mouthed berk.

Smokey, what a complete load of bollox

A Championship 10 ? ,you mean an actual real 10 metres

If you give away penalties it means you are doing things wrong you muppet, usually because of pressure from the opposition

You said a ' walkover ' ,in the end you were lucky not to lose ,you have some complete morons in those shirts in Hardacre,Delaney and Bailey, Jamie Peacock confirmed his retirement last night, and apparently some morons in the south stand as well with issues after the game

Either way, I'll leave it now, no point discussing anything with somebody as thick as you

No, Leigh are an RL team they arent children, this isnt sports day. They dont need kid gloves. We dont all get a medal.

We were appalling. If anyone thinks Brian Mac welcomed the lads into the changing rooms with a pat on the back and "good win lads, more of the same next week" then it must be the first game they have ever watched. There will be 12/13 of that squad getting a kick up the ar5e in training this week.

Yes, you give away penalties because you do things wrong, well done on noticing that. We did things wrong, lots of things wrong. When you do lots of things wrong, you have done things poorly.

When a team gives away lots of penalties, drop lots of ball under no real pressure, when their structures fall apart, when they give away ball in their own half by managing to get things as basic as passing from dummy half or kicking off wrong. That team hasnt played very well.

Did the way Leigh played and controlled parts of the game and pressured Leeds contribute to Leeds making poor decisions and errors?

He's still f****g typing. Unbelievable.

And Bradford Bulls?

Leigh didnt make leeds give away 4 penalties for obstruction, they didnt make leeds throw the ball at Watkins feet, they didnt make Leeds forget to play with any 2nd phase at all, they didnt make Sutcliffe decide to dummy and take the tackle every time he got the ball, They didnt make Brett Delany forget how to pass (i dont think he has every learned)

You can look back at the Leeds board about their performances over the last few weeks and the issues apparent against Leigh were apparent against Wigan, Warrington, Hull and even as far back as Cas. The lack of speed in the middle, the lack of any 2nd phase play, the basic errors, the lack of structure.

If this were two SL sides then people would be highlighting it as why we dont beat the aussies etc etc. It was an exciting game, good entertainment. It wasnt high quality.

They have an awful side at the moment. I dont think anyone is saying any different.

why dont you tweet about it?

Leave Smokey alone lads. He's so far down the hole he's been digging over the years he can't get out for fear of looking a bigger a**e than he does now.

If that's possible.

What an ungracious, anti RL pillock

I don't think anyone who has been owned as much as Smokey has returned to type the same old crap. If he had support on here you'd perhaps understand his resilience. But he doesn't. He stands out like Joseph Fritzl at a family planning conference.

Your bellendry has already made the twittersphere this morning - with no help from me



Basically you don't like Championship clubs. We get it.

i didnt comment at all on Leigh's performance.

thats a shame, i usually enjoy your hissy fits, i imagine you all foaming at the mouth as you attempt to come up with a new witty insult, then failing badly on it.

But if it makes you happy.

Leeds were outstanding, really really good if we perform like that for the rest of the year not only will we win the LLS, GF and CC, but probably State of Origin and the 4 nations aswell. We really were fantastic, Sutcliffe and Sinfield were like Sterling and Kenny, Chris Clarkson and Robbie Ward were like watching Cam Smith and Benny Elias sharing the hooking duties. Has anyone ever seen SBW and Brett Delany in the same room? Tom Briscoe was better than ET at his peak, and Ryan Bailey played like Gordon Tallis.

Leigh were world class to stay with us.

Thing is Smokey, the crap you've typed there is no different from the guff you normally present on here.

You may all be patting yourselves on the back thinking you've 'owned' smokey but his appraisal of Leeds' performance is spot on. Leigh played well but to suggest Leeds were anything other than woeful is incorrect.

indeed, i say it all the time. Im sometimes known as Smokey"hasanyoneseensbrettdelanyandsbwinthesameroom?"TA

our performance was as bad as that charge down decision from the VR. WTF was that about.

Smokey......t*t of the century. Can we not get him banned for the continual posting of 8ollox

its funny how touchy lower league fans are about an appraisal of an SL clubs performance. Some people are very insecure.
