Quote="TRAV123"but where not gonna give leeds a thrasing if we was losing and trying fair enough but half of them players aint trying just a slow painfull death to end of the season like last year'"
Well what a very pleasant surprise yesterday was, it was like the previous few months performances hadn't happened. Don't know what's happened in the camp this last week but whatever it was certainly worked, it's the first time in a long time that we actually took to the field and looked like a team prepared to sweat blood and bust a gut for each other. I know Leeds were a bit below the expected standard yesterday, but you can only play what's in front of you and apart from the last 10 mins when the match was well and truly won we demolished them. The farce that Uncle Albert created with the LOD sending off seemed to galvanise the lads and the touch rugby defence from previous weeks disappeared and Broughy and co tackled like demons, long may it continue. Our forwards were making good yards and holding onto the ball, dummy runners were creating the gaps in the Lids defence and our backs were exploiting this, we were bursting the line and back up runners were on hand to support. I'd forgot we could play like this, I'm not going to get too carried away with the performance as I think Lids were well below par but the transformation from previous outings was pretty astonishing. Now let's hope that we can build on this and mount a good play off challenge.
All in all a good afternoon out.
Now looking forward to Hull rather than praying for the season to end.
