Re: Hurrell No Try. I still don't get how the rules can be right when they ignore Rankin's knock on and give a penalty to Cas for Konrad being in front of kicker.

Am not saying it should be a try, but it should be our play of ball at scrum.

I hope they tweak that 10 yard grace rule next season. It totally let's defenders off with their f*** ups.

Feel like KS and Agar need some credit here. We’re not out of danger but that side has transformed since the low points, and that’s not happened by accident.

Massive win that. Absolutely delighted.

Not just the 2pts but some Leeds steel of old back in the performance.

Looks like the lads are enjoying being at the club again.

The quality still isn’t quite there and won’t be until we get some more talent in the side, but our D had some bite to it for once.

Even thought Sutcliffe had a decent game tonight.

Well summed up. Agree. Theres still a way to go offensively but thats down to confidence and a lack of talent in a couple of positions and in the depth of the squad overall. But very very proud tonight. Leeds of old that with the defence and attitude

To be fair to Martin he’s probably never played on a pitch thats so small he’s not the first to kick it out on the full, right time for a brandy and to watch it back, for once with a smile

We all deserve a nice brandy mate.

But he was in front if the kicker and within 10m of the ball. Correct decision.

Cant complain though that was a good nights entertainment. Cant fault the effort or desire. So much of what's been missing all year.

Players and management deserve a lot of credit for that.

Pity we didn’t get to see more of Martin and he made a couple of errors. I think he’ll be good for us once he settles.

Interesting that Oledski has been dropped a couple of weeks recently. I wonder if he’s carrying an injury. It could just be that he needs to be stood down for a while -
he’s still only 20 and been consistent at prop for us.

Cam Smith looked up for it tonight when he came on. Donaldson was great for his spell too, tackled anything that moved.

Still can’t get over the transformation of Cuthbertson.

Ferres was pretty good tonight. Gave away his usual stupid penalty or two but otherwise solid.

He knocked on because Handley put pressure on him, not being of where Konrad was stood. IMO if Konrad isn't involved in the tackle, he shouldn't be called offside. Rankin should have to gain possession to get any benefits.... and he spilled it!
