Think powell has been a breath of fresh air this year with his cas side.my opinion on him havn't changed post cup final, I just think whoever faced us on saturday wouldn't have faired any better than cas did, infact I think its a credit they got as close as they did.im sure he will learn as much as his team from saturdays experience.

Would I still have him back at leeds in the future? Most definitely.

The test for Powell now is can he come up with something to work when the next team try and replicate our victory plan.

Olympic Way*

I was even happier going back, and then drinking our way to the hotel. Three great nights/days in that there London, and Leeds didn't spoil it!

I don't think Brian deserves any criticism for last night's defeat.

Leeds were superb for an hour before the extra man took it's toll.

So you don't think the utilisation of 2 extra forwards might have alleviated that "toll"...and thus been the factor you think was instrumental in the loss?

Not one to use Opta personally but those that do can't have helped but notice how much more even the ten St Helens forwards shared their defensive duties when compared to the Leeds eight - not rocket science I know but it does highlight one effect of not fully utilising the bench.
