Having calmed down since last night, I don't think anyone was particularly at fault and we were just outclassed on the day. Looking forward to next week and beyond already

Back early from Bradford Rigsby

In the wild and wacky world that's London RL, it wouldn't suprise me if we put 60 past Wakey next Sunday.

thats cause i never went..illness has struck me...

The Rhinos were to good its as simple as that for me.

Dont panic!

Unfortunately for the rest of super league Leeds and Saints are just too good when on form. I saw you do one of the most professional jobs at HKR last week to suggest you are a serious contender this season.

Leeds had squad numbers 1-13 available and they are the champions. On the day they were on fire.

Watched it again on the SL show mate. Between us we've just about got it.

Leuluai comes in on a dummy run, he's running into a gap. Howell choses to hit Leuluai (which is the wrong option, hence leaving space for Burrow to go through).
Howell hit's Leuluai who is not running towards either Randall or Howell, which knocks him slightly sideways into Randall. No fault of the Leeds player at all IMO I'm afraid, however you were right about it being Leuluai who clattered into Randall, but that was only because of the intervention of Howell.
Phew.

No you wouldn't, we would

Edited to a more realistic post to save you from any embarrassment.

I think that's only half the truth. The other half is that you let them be good. All they did was click. They did that against us but we still beat them. Your guys looked like rabbits in the headlights when they clicked. Had you held firm with your defensive lines, kept cool heads and had Will Sharpe not had that brain fart then at the very least you would have contained them and you might even have beaten them.

I would hope that young Sharpe will be replaced by young O'Callaghan next week. Maybe he needs taking down a peg or two with his recent "I should be in the England squad" comments. Schoolboy error and just after Big Mac would have been telling them to contain Leeds for the first 15 minutes of the second half


Not saying it would have made any difference to the outcome but handing them 6 points on a plate isn't the best of starts to the [stevo mode:2qu1honfsecond stanza

in a lonk Darth posted on here when Willy penned a new contract.....

A few more reasoned posts towards the end of this thread.

Truth:

i. we were not at our best (we needed to be 18 points up not 4;
ii. Leeds are a very good side, especially when they get in front;
iii. they were near to full strength, we were not; and
iv. we beat them at home and they responded.

Lets enjoy Wakefield (I hope!)

See you Sunday and we will have a proper pint of beer

Look forward to it

I was certainly impressed by O'Callaghan playing at full back for the reserves against Leeds. Carried the ball forward really well. I don't know if wing is his preferred position but I don't have a problem with him being picked. Has done well when he has played for the first team. One for the future I reckon

I agree O'Callaghan did look impressive and looked like first team material to me. Sharp looks like he's beginning to believe all Offiah's hype. Will probably do him good to be dropped for a week.

I am sure Brian will take the appropriate action. Melling was dropped and Willy will be too. J O'C is an excellent prospect and could fill in well.

Think O'Callaghan looks a better bet at FB, remember him against Hull looking a few yards off the pace of Calderwood but would quite happily see him back in the team as he looks good with ball in hand. If we were going to get any where on Saturday then we needed to get a couple of scores or at least the first one in the second half, as it was we gave Leeds a try (and the game) on a plate. Still one bad result does not a bad team make, and I reckon we can get back on track this week, think some of our best showings have been on the road IMO.

if anyone saw my last post.

I'd be interested in knowing who will be available for Wakefield. I'd be concerned at having O'Callaghan playing in the side if Brough/Rooney are available. Neither played last week but both played the week before.

i post lonks?
