Davies was at his best (or negative worst) on Saturday. He was bitter with his comments after the game; more than usual. All he does is go on about perceived errors, if you had no errors then no one would score in any sport not just RL.
All the negative reports from the commentatorts have bellitled the game it had seen one of the best tries scored at Wembley by Joel Tomkins if that had been in Rugby Union it would never have been off the news .The Leeds fightback and to a neutral would have been a good game.What should have been a spectacle game was degraded by the commentators picking up refs decisions which by the way happen in every match. Rugby Union never find faults (they give the game the utmost praises) to the extent of what these so called commentators did for the game on Saturday and the RL should take them to task for this. What should have been a the best advertisment for the game was downgraded by the commentators on world television by highlighting the faults and not the plus side of the game.
I still think there is a lot of bad blood between the 2 teams following the playoff game at the DW last season with McGuires injury, cheat labelling etc. Hence Leeds have raised their game each time they have played us this season and all 3 have been tough uncompromising encounters with a bit of needle in them. Nothing wrong with this its just rugby.
Until Leeds start with their best 2 halfs and put Sinfield up at No13, they will continue to struggle and the frustration the players are showing, especially at the end may be due to everyone being able to see this except the man who picks the team. As soon as I saw Sinfield at Stand Off and Burrow on the bench, I knew the game was won. When Burrow did come on, things started to get a little "squeekie bottom"
