You're right but so too is tvoc. There's no way we should be looking to get rid of Disko, but I get the feeling he may initiate a move for himself, if he is continually pushed out of the 17 (which IMO he should be).

It's a serious question and one that will need addressing sooner or later.

Diskin nor Buderus are what you'd term impact hookers. Buderus is clearly the better option to start, which leaves Diskin where?

In the seventeen in a different role - interchange second row

or ?

Player A plays well. Idiots on here proclaim him the greatest ever.

Player A plays badly. Idiots on here proclaim him the worst ever and demand we sell him or buy a replacement.

Player A doesn't play but his replacement plays well. Idiots on here demand player A never gets back into team ad is sold.

Is it not more about the team than the player?

Serious quesions here. Have we looked anything like any good with using both Buderus and Diskin in the same squad?

Did we not play our best Rugby of the season without Diskin in the squad?

Did we not win two championships without the two hookers scenario?

Was not the last time we looked so poor around the ruck area, when we went with a Diskin/Millard combination. Coincidentally the two hookers.

Some match reports have Keith scoring a goal kick with Sinny getting 7, but others have Sinfield with all 8 kicks. What happened?

Sinfield kicked eight from eight. Burrow missed one from one.

The YEP online had Senior kicking the goal after the Webb try.

On 48 minutes, Webb went on a run and fed Lauitiiti, who slipped out a wonderful offload round the man to Keith Senior. He made ground then turned the ball to the supporting Webb to complete a classic try, converted by Senior.

Very strange.

Has Ray French been writing for the YEP again?

7 goals kicked by Keith Sinfield and 1 by Kevin Senior

Not a patch on his confusion over Anthony and Andy Farrell.

Anyone who can get those two muddled up needs to retire to the nursing home.

I'm a big fan of Diskin and was not keen on giving the No9 shirt to Buderus
but seeing how the season has progressed Buderus is in a different league and can play 80mins no problem, it pains me to say it but having Diskin on the bench is wasting a space that could be taken by someone who we could use to change a game plan if things went wrong, as you say he's not a Roby and would only be good as cover for an injury to Buderus.

I agree with every word and unfortunately I'm sure the Leeds management knew what they were getting when they made the signing last March making all the two hooker rotation within the game talk disingenuous (if that's the right word.)
