Fair enough, however we have beaten Warrington and Hull in the last 3 games. Our firm is on the turn upwards.

Who have Leeds beaten recently?

Thought Parcell was good last night - agree with Brissers.

KR are similar to us in that they have some weak spots, maybe not as much talent but better balanced and play better as a team (Neary all other sides have been playing better as a team than us).

Key is how effectively we use the salary and quota spot freed up with recent moves - this has never been about Parcell and Lunt swapping, Dwyer has been starting for us anyway.

To be fair I don't think anyone can be surprised that Parcell's had an immediate impact. It was always going to be a hugely risky move to let him go to our immediate relegation competition at this point of the season. We all know he can be quick and dynamic and while he's not been setting the world alight for us this year he was always going to have an impact going into a new team. Don't think it's the last time he's going to turn in the goods for KR before the season's out. Remains to be seen whether the gamble will pay off. I've seen a lot of positive moves from the management this last week or so under incredibly difficult circumstances so trying to give them the benefit of the doubt and hope they know what they're doing and hope that the gamble pays off for them. Can see Tui suddenly starting to look half decent for Salford now as well but the stakes are far higher with Parcell with him going to KR. It's proper squeaky bum time isn't it…

But the most relevant point surely is the role of Mags in Parcells performance - he needs someone of that quality to be able to perform to this standard, as 2017 showed. That's great for HKR for the rest of this season, but I'll be interested to see how he gels with Mags replacement, whoever that may be. If it doesn't work out I suspect they'll see the Parcell we've seen this year and last - largely disinterested and ineffectual.

From what I can glean, Parcell spits his dummy a bit if he doesn't get what he wants, and he frankly isn't all that as a hooker. Good player yes, but there's a reason he's not in the NRL.
I was watching Mags last night and he really was pushing them around the park and taking good options more often than not. He's just a class all-round sportsman.
KR are one of 5 clubs in the drop zone currently, if we can't get over London at least I'll take relegation on the chin. Parcell aside: if London with an average gate of 1,500 or whatever, no marquees and Ward as relatively new coach can beat Leeds over 29 rounds then fair play.

Hope you’re not joking. Walker is the weakest FB in the league. Quinlan before being injured last year was second to Barba in the league.
