Did anyone else think our attacking line stood alot deeper than normal? Good to see IMO.

My overview (for what it's worth):

A good effort, I almost felt a bit better about the Leeds performance reading it. The contest overall just left me cold on the night. What's going on when destroying Wigan isn't fun anymore. Just one thing though Lee Smith was the dummy half in the opening stages 80% (guesstimate) of the time and the role was taken over man for man by Brent Webb when he replaced Smith.

I'm surprised we haven't seen that tactic used before in SL. The truly great Parramatta side of the early eighties had Paul Taylor doing the self same thing from full back week in, week out to great effect.

It was very noticeable when McGuire kicked for Donald's try.

If the ref's are going to let the defenders slow the ruck more teams will have to do this to open up defences.

A good development IMO.

Chin up statto. I know what will make you feel better. Gives us the stats from the 4 Leeds props on the night so we can see how Bailey compared.

Then a comparison with Kylie and Fekka wouldn't go amiss in light of the weeks discussion.

Not in my gift until the Super League website is updated. Probably Monday.

Not in my gift at all. How sad, (truly sad) would I have to be to collect opposition statistics as well as those of Leeds players.

Perhaps one of the weekly trade papers might contain the info but I haven't bought one of those since I moved to Lincoln 12 years ago.

Did I not make that point yesterday? Tie up your cap space in 1,6,7,9 and 13 - add some decent props and you're there. Don't waste big money on centres.

So only spend good money on a 1,6,7,8,9,10,13 ???

Looks like this Keith Senior chap has been a waste of signing all these years.

Last nights game was so one sided it didn't matter. That shouldn't be the case next week against Saints where our backs will be asked to do more on both sides of the ball against a team who will turn up. I hope we have the experienced Senior back is all I'll say. The dropped ball from Watkins alone could swing a scoreline against a team like saints.

So could dropped ball by anyone, not sure what your point it but Senior is also partial to the odd handling error .

It is or the odd brain fart from peacock but the established players mistakes won't be highlighted in this case because that doesn't help his argument that we desperately need to sign someone NOW!!!
