| Scrappy game, plenty of mistakes but plenty of effort on a 4 day turnaround. All things considered a great win lads.

I don't think its fair to blame him for the play the balls though, that second one he was being held around the arms for an eternity and simply tried to play it to get the game going again. Should have been a penalty. He is guilty of too much wrestling in the tackle though.'"
Nope, both occasions he pulled a ratty muscle and instead of going for the corner, cut inside and came back towards the defenders making things harder for himself.
He needs to give up fighting or arguing trying to win penalties, much like bmm he's turning the ball over more than he wins

Well said, although some of the posters moaning have been on here for 15+ years and never shown any evidence that they even enjoy rugby, so wouldn't expect an about-turn now.

| Leeds fan here in peace.
That was a great game to watch and both sets of players did well considering the turnaround.
As bad as a decision the Charnley ‘try’ and VR balls up did not cost us the game your guys just managed the game far better in the last 5-10 minutes.
Enjoy the win, as a Leeds fan im just glad we’re competing again with the top sides

Tom Johnstone would have just put both in the corner . . .

Great point. Before I got that point of your message I thought "I bet a person just getting into the sport would have loved it".
The skill level wasn't exceptional but it was still entertaining, and that's all that matters.

Thanks for your honest post, as that must have been a tough defeat to take. As Gale said post match that Leeds had enough opportunities to win the game and they were to blame not the referee (or words to that effect). You've some winnable games coming up, if you can win 3 out of the next 4, that might build some momentum to make the play offs.

| Just back and one advantage of the away end is that it's conducive to not knowing what's going on half the time.
I'll take the win thanks as I thought our number was up when Hughes went off so fair play to Walker skipping over and Williams pinching it its a good two points IMO following a pee poor first half

Cheers as I say not that tough because 2 yesrs ago we wouldn’t have even been in the game! Im just happy we are starting to look something like again.
Interestingly Austin didn’t play great, it was his chance to show his new employers what they’re getting aswell

Maybe he did exactly that.
Fair play on your honest assessment though. Kendal is shocking, it was an entertaining match and I obviously enjoyed the result but he got so much wrong. The first half was frustrating, probably down to the short turnaround.

Shocking first half but if Dwyer and Myler's form are anything to go by, Austin will be SOO standard if he comes to you, especially against us

I think the first half you score we score nature was just down to tiredness on both sides the schedule must be difficult for the players

Don’t know, bizarre with the short turnaround, Agar has got more right than wrong recently but I think he made some bizarre decisions tonight with regards to the subs

| Rugby League remains the best sport to watch.
I really enjoyed the game. Of course, we can play much better but so could Leeds. Lots of mistakes and wrong decisions but loved it. Those who didn't enjoy it should watch a game of tip-tap or South Africa v Lions or a full game from Rugby League in the past. Perhaps rugby league isn't for them and they ought to find something else to do instead of moaning.
Who knows how the season will pan out. We could lose to half a dozen clubs in the league and beat everyone ... but that's sport.

You need to put an 'in my opinion' there.
Look, there is absolutely nothing wrong with pointing out that the quality of the game is rotten. You might find mistakes aplenty entertaining, some people don't.
Personally, I found last night (& most games this season) a difficult watch. A close finish doesn't make up for the preceding 70 minutes being of a poor quality.

Sorry of course it is my opinion. But why oh why do you keep watching if it is giving you no pleasure? There are other things to do. Stop watching, stop moaning on this forum there is new world out there for you.

| A mistake laden but compelling contest in my view. Never knew what was going to happen next. Harsh to criticise the players on such a short turn around.
Charnley has reverted to boogering around in the tackle which really annoys me. Toby King still some way off his best.
I’m not sure what the call should have been on the Charnley 2 nd try. My gut feeling was he didn’t ground the ball, BUT that Dwyer stole the ball in the tackle with more than one player involved. I suspect that would then have been a penalty try but Sky were noticeably shy about that issue!
The Newman try was class, but perhaps a little early to deify him.
Akouala putting in his usual stint…
Cooper put in a real shift and Ratchford showing again that full back is his natural position. Danny Walker could and probably should have been brought on earlier.
A win without really clicking.
I still think this is the game for me!

| Danny Walker is a cracker. He must have more game time. I have said before I have no problems with him & Daryl Clark on the pitch.
