When was the last time sneyd kicked at 25%?

Couldn't believe he missed that easy second conversion attempt, especially when we might of had to settle for a point.
Redeemed himself and did the biz, again, when the heat was on.
Fair play.
Leeds royally fooked it up when they came down our end late on looking for a dg equaliser.
Reminded me of us not so many moons ago.

Should get lessons off Tuli about leaping and catching a rugby ball.
Followed by a great ball to Carlos for us to bet back in it.
[size=50T0sser Should have grounded it himself though. [/size

| I think people are being over critical, money off our backs, Leeds are a good side and showed at times last night how good they can be, our defence overall was outstanding and didn't let them play. There were missing a few props, but still had a side full of top class players.

Not sure it's throwing the towel in, more being realistic and preparing ourselves for the worst should it happen...and let's face it, against Leeds it usually does!

I've tweeted my thanks to him because he does this every time we play Leeds. He came over to us in the Western Terrace the other week too, total respect to him.

how is it a "monkey off our back"? beating Leeds at Headingley is something we struggle with, but every game in the regular rounds is two points, nothing more.

| Bit of a stretch to hope the Giants can get anything at Saints tonight but hope Salford can do Wakey and would probably prefer Wigan to beat Cas this evening.

| Did anyone else think the Sneyd conversion attempt after the Faraimo try actually went over? Looked it from where we were in the East Stand. I do think that we need taller posts, as he gets some efforts chalked off that look good due to the height he kicks the ball

I had a view that was nearly behind him and it looked over to me as well as people sitting nearby, but as you say the posts are ridiculously small and that has to be addressed.

| Thought we did well in patches again, had control of the game then some poor penalties to help Leeds get back in the game and we switched off again for 20mins of the 2nd half.
What really annoyed me more than anything last night was that we yet again look devoid of ideas once we get over the oppositions 20M line. The try by Faraimo showed what running a decent line game do but we just don't do it enough. We very rarely use the size of Paea or Taylor when close to the line by having them steaming onto a ball. My other gripe is our attacking line more often than not goes so deep that we actually loose ground from where we ptb because its static with not forward movement when the ball is played.
Showed good character though the come back and get the 2pts.

been saying this for a while, lose Kelly and we struggle, as has been said, we need an attack coach. I hate to mention his name, but there is someone we could maybe get in.

Nope, it was a couple of feet wide and I was in the East stand with a good angle to view it from.

I'd like to know what some mean when they say that we drop off...
I see it this way, we concede 4 penalties in the first half but then, through no change in the way we play the Ref decided to ping us 4 or 5 times on the bounce which puts us under a lot of pressure. At no point did our intensity in attack or defense really drop off.
The issue is, consistent refereeing. I am sure a ref could ping something on every play if we actually analyse it out, but getting 5 back to back penalties seems harsh, given that Leeds did not real different to us all night.

not exactly a "monkey off our back", scraped a narrow win after being 14 points up. Hardly something to crow about, in my opinion. We HAVE to start playing the full 80.

Winning the way we did was probably better for our confidence and showed our resilience because whenever it is close against Leeds we always seem to come up short. Leeds had all the momentum, we were on a team warning and when Parcell scored there only looked 1 winner.

Who is crowing?
Was a great win and performance It doesn't matter if it was by a point or 20. But it's no good if we get back next week.

We fans keep mentioning the same things week after week and it doesnt seem to get any better.
just dont understand why there is no improvement in these areas.
Taking the ball up when you are stood still really annoys me.Talanoa does it all the time.If they took the ball when in motion they could make many more metres and also much more of a chance to break the tackle.

never, they are Wigan, same as Leeds and Saints. Nothing is ever forward, never offside, never high, never late, never lay on.

Oh come on. How many close games have we closed out against the champions in recent years? It was a robust assessment at the time, I just didn't take into account our mental resilience and Sneyd repeating his Wakefield heroics.
